Any babies that don't clap or wave at 14 months?

[Worriedmom123]

My baby walks, babbles dada (but not mama), brings me toys. Understands the odd word 'have a drink' 'Where's the cat?'
Just abit concerned as doesn't gesture, clap, wave, shake head yes/no, point etc.
Health visitor says she will review situation again in 2 months which has worried me.
He has clapped maybe 3 or 4 times in his life but never on demand and i think just purely fluke by putting hands together and not seen it for weeks.

If he's babbling mainly and not speaking much, has the HV referred him for a hearing test? If not I'd call her back up and ask her to refer him for that now.

He may end up having some SLT and they will want him to have had a hearing test first

Ah OK thank you will get on to that.
I am not concerned by his hearing at all as he answers his name well but I guess it's a tick box that has to be done.

@Worriedmom123 how is your baby now

17 months now.
Started clapping last month and now does it all the time. Waves bye occasionally but not always on demand.
Occasionally shakes head for No.
Points at objects of interest and occasionally at what he wants.
Now says mama, dada and 1 other word.

Hey! Just checking how is your baby doing? My baby is 14 months in few days and she points occasionally (eg. If I ask her were nanny is or something else she knows) but doesn’t clap or wave at all and never did. She doesn’t babble much but making loads of noises. I’m so worried! Smiley and happy seems to play peekaboo as well.

Hi, my baby is now 18 months and claps, points, says 4 words and mama and dada. Started clapping at around 16 months.
Waves very occasionally but I am confident they know how to wave, just doesn't want to.

Thank you and glad to hear that!
