Twin Delayed Development

[Twinmom24]

I have 15 month old twin boys (14 corrected) they are actively pulling up and cruising about so I do believe walking won’t be too far off. They aren’t talking at all yet, they’ll definitely babble to each other a lot and to me and my partner, but there is no mama or dada yet. I sing to them, nursery rhymes, talk to them constantly, read to to them. They don’t point, clap or wave, no matter how much I repeat the actions.
Did anyone else have twins delayed? Did they ever catch up, if so at what age? Any advice on how to help? I’ve mentioned this at their yearly review, mostly the speech and the paediatrician is going to do a full review with us at 18months to see how things are going. Would love to hear of others with twins, I do have a nephew with autism so I do know this is a possibility too, which I’m fine with, I just want to get early intervention if needed.

Did you also have a 12 month review with the HV @Twinmom24and did they ask you to fill in the 12 month Ages & Stages?

They are still quite young, so a lot could change in the next 6-12months.

I have fraternal boys. At the age yours are they seemed a little delayed, but there wasn’t really anything to choose between them. However in time twin 2 developed normally but twin 1 is still behind developmentally. He’s still mostly non-verbal at 4 and we are awaiting an autism assessment and one-to-one assistance in preparation for starting school. It has raised dilemmas, twin 2 is ready for school and nursery suggested delaying twin 1 but we don’t want to separate them.

I’m not an expert but I wouldn’t have thought what you are describing is significantly delayed…plenty of time for them to catch up!
Have you asked GP?
