ds barely any words 16 months - should i worry?

[littlebylittle]

I should add that he signs twenty or so signs for the right things but just grunts or screams and points depending on how he's feeling. just so different to dd, I know she was a girl, but makes me feel that maybe I haven't been doing the right stuff with him. Sort of says mummy (mama rather than mummy but not much else.

No you shouldn't. My DS didn't really get talking until he was about 2. 8mths later and he doesn't stop.

My DS was well over 2 before he spoke.Boys defintely slower.If he is saying something that is probably a sign that it will come in time.
