Ds is 3.5. Since he started to babble as a baby he has had a really husky voice.
He is a twin and his sister has "normal" speech patterns. He was much slower to speak than she was, and is much quieter generally.
Every hcp we have seen have commented on it, but no one has suggested there might be anything wrong.
He was born with club foot and has had restricted mobility due to being in a splint for this (about 12 hours a day). We have stopped this treatment now. I am not sure if he was slower to speak because of this, or because he is a boy. You are not supposed to compare twins development but it is so hard not to.
Has anyone come across this before?
Do I need to push for more checks from the gp, or is it nothing to worry about?
I am a regular under a new name btw!
