As the title says really! My LO is just shy of 15 months. I'm a ftm, so no frame of reference for this. My girl is wonderful (bias I know haha), but she's funny, affectionate, engaged, playful, was walking before her first bday, and most pertinent to this post I guess, she has soooo much language.
She will point at things when asked 'where's the....), bring us things we've asked for, knows the full head shoulders knees and toes routine haha, among many other action lead songs. She's sharp as a tac, but she simply wont say a word! Sjd is read to and talked to from sunrise to sunset, we dont do screens (some tv background), her hearing seems perfect, she babbles away, says something vaguely resembling mum and dad, but nothing beyond this. Is this normative?! Thanks ☺️

From experience the first thing I would do is to turn off the TV in the background.

If you do the communication section of the 15 month Ages & Stages, how does she score?

Thank you for linking that, scores present as above cut off and development on schedule. I will try not to worry yet and the TV will be off 🙏🏻😂
