Hello lovelies
hope you are all doing well . I am a FT mum to a wonderful DD of 16 months . The reason why I am seeking advice is that I am slightly worried about her milestones . I will try and make it as clear as possible. She started walking properly at 12 months and she currently has 30 understandable words under her belt . She is very good at imitating and always following my point when I say “ look at something “ . She brings toys to me all the time and does pretend play ( feed Dollies , build stacks , pretend cleaning etc ) . She always responds to her name . She is very affectionate. From a social point of view she is a bit shy but runs after other kids when she seems them , she smiles at strangers etc . She is a very good sleeper and napper . Now to the point of this post . She is 16 months but not a good pointer . She points at her body parts , points at dogs , at the light or things in books , but DOESN’T point to request . She reaches with both hands when she wants something or comes towards me .
she can point at body parts but not much else
HV and GP are not concerned at all
