Hi , my Boy is 21 months old but he is still not speaking in sentences or has a wide vocabulary. I read he should acquire more than 50 vocabulary but his is still very limited. Words that he can say: Ma Ma , dad, ge ge (Brother in mandarin) , clock , eggs , bus, ball, meow, nose, eyes, what's this , I don't want , no, Yi Yi (aunt), po po (grandma ) .. I think that's about it .. should I be worried ? My friend's kids are all speaking with much more vocabulary than my boy so I'm very worried. My elder son was already speaking in sentences when he was 18 months old .. I don't wanna compare but can't help but get worried:(

Some kids will tend to be slower in terms of speech. But 21 months old Is still early. Don't worry and don't rush. Be more vocal to your kids. Explain more of the things you are doing in your daily life for example ' Mummy is going to take something from the cabinet. " Explain and say. yes it's 'meaningless' to say but kids are actually listening.
