After reading a thread earlier, I've realised my 20 month old doesn't talk very much. He'll say mum, dad, babble, tell me "bum bum" if he's pooped, but not a lot else. HV is coming out next week to see 24 week old DD so will speak to her then, but just feeling a bit lost and looking for some advice in the meantime.
He has a dummy, but we've cut it down and he only really looks for it if he's tired now (or as I saw on another thread... seems to find a hidden stash of them 🤣 glad it's not just me). I'm making a point of reading a lot more than we normally do (usually he will look at board books during the day and He'll play with them, gnaw them fml, and a story before bed). I think he's also in the middle of a bit of a sleep regression/dropping a nap (2 a day, usually around 30-60 mins) so I'm kinda praying THATS what all the messed up sleeps the last few weeks have been and he's on the cusp of talking.
A friend suggested Ms Rachel, put that on to give if a try (willing to try anything at this point) and he hated it, wouldn't entertain it for a moment. He's very mobile (launching himself all over the couch like an assault course as I type), loves his busy boards, I'm not sure if I'm overreacting but definitely starting to get worried so apologies if this is a bit of a mess and a ramble.
