the doc commented on my baby for not walking instead - she is currently walking alot more than she was a month ago on her first birthday check up. but she's able to wave goodbye, points objects but not being able to clearly say mama and papa but she understands words. i personally feel defeated for baby who can walk HAHAHHAA but honestly....don't beat yourself up mummy. every baby will eventually reach their milestones - earlier or later. i was advised to continue interacting as she will have her speech tested during her 18 months checkup. i don't like this pressure but i just want this to be done and over with 😮💨
My 14 months old same thing too. She is active and she is yet to speak. Some kids develop pretty slowly. Keep talking, sign language, kids activity and give them between 15-18 months. Should this take pretty long, then you raised this concern to your child's doctor. Should they understand what we talk about or what they want, I am happy with it. While there are times it can be a concern, I would keep trying and not giving up.
Thank you for sharing. Much appreciated
