My just turned 2 yo DD understands everything you say to her, but her speech is very hit and miss, she will say quite a few words, and sometimes she will retain them and other times she won't, sometimes her words are clear, sometimes it's only me who understands what she means.
Her little friend who is just a couple of months older, speaks in full and clear sentences, her cousin who is a couple of months younger, while doesn't have as many words, his are far clearer.
DD has 2 older brothers, who are twins, who suffered severe speech delay, undergoing speech therapy from the age of 4-7, one of them has been signed on to a speech therapist at school again this week at nearly 9 (though this is more for language rather than actual speech now)
I know babies develop at different rates, and on the whole I'm not too worried, but DD has started to get frustrated, A LOT, and I'm wondering if it's because she feels she can't communicate with us?
Am I overthinking this, or does it sound like she may have speech issues?
Any advice/opinions welcome...
