5 Signs of a Speech Delay | Speech Therapist Explains
Вставка

- If you are a parent of a young one who is not talking, this video should help you identify the signs of a speech delay. The biggest factor is the child's vocabulary size compared to the average number of the child's age range.
Average number of words based on age:
12 mos = 2-6 other than mama and dada
15 mos = 10 words
18 mos = 50 words
24 mos = 200-300 words
30 mos = 450 words
36 mos (3 years) = 1,000 words

My sister didn't talk until she was 3! And there was no problem, she was just a late talker. Everyone develops at their own pace.
Reading this make me feel so much better my daughter is 20 month old has not said a word and I’m just so scared she will be so far behind but your comment gives me home
what was she doing before that, babbling ?
Now she is speaking
My grandson will be 3 in February and says nothing just jargon ..😏😏😏
It's TRUE, but a lot of people simply dont understand that you aren't speaking enough TO the child. Instead we're talking FOR them and taking what we know they are trying say.
This isnmy sons problem. Will be 3 in a few weeks.
Well, he is talking, but it's all blurred. No consonants.all vowels.
I work a lot, the oldest isnt as helpful. Basic teenager, mother imdpes that thing where she gets it, so she just follows, never really correcting.
I know he'll get where he needs to be but if the set up around him was kore oriented for his help, he'd already be speaking volumes, like other kids his age I've seen that are CLEARLY speaking.
You can see the interactions and the influences they have.
As a parent I think speech therapists are grossly underappreciated. Thank you for what you do.
Thank you so much! :)
They actually charge the same as psychologists
I agree
As a speech therapist , I agree
@@saeedimani3759, thanks for the work you do.
I have 2 sons with autism, and I wouldn't have coped without the support of speech therapists!
They are in their 20s now, and are both university graduates! They were given a solid foundation when they were given speech therapy. One of my sons even graduated with first class honours!!!!!
The work you do is important to the future of the kids. Thanks again! ❤️
According to my aunt and parents, I started to talk between 3-4 years old. Everyone has their own pace.
Same to my daughter ,she started talking at 2 that made me confused however she is at 4 now started to speak still behind her school kids , i hope she will do it soon , thx your comment give me some confident that is normal as i though alwys
My younger sister did not talk until she turned almost 4. Consulted a lot of doctors until then. They all said she will speak not to worry. Now she is in HR ND and is a non stop chatter box
Was going to say or ask this too
My son his 3 years he can call mom dad and her sister but can talk much can sing song from UA-cam aswel just communication is a problem am worried and praying to God for a miracle
My baby is two years four months old she's not yet talking anything.. She's telling only meeeee meeeee meeeee for everything.. I'm worried lot
This pandemic doesn't help me get my child be social. With the lock down and social distancing. He lacks the social skills. Of course he's fine with me and dad but he's not used to being around other people and he doesn't seem like he's interested...
AJ, it really is a struggle right now.
This is my child as well! He has to get used to someone new at first. Has not spoken one single word and is 14 months. But seems to be developing in everything else.
Same with me
Same goes to my daughter at 1 year old.
Same 😔 it's so depressing. No mommy meet up groups nothing. I try my best but my little one is missing out on so much
Thank you so much for this! My daughter is all like that except that she can do hand gestures like bye bye, flying kiss, gesturing 'where?', eyes blinking, etc.
Same as my baby how old is she now?
I never knew "ah" for things wasn't so normal! That as well as the other signs is what my 2.5 year old does!
This is one of your best videos like this. The graphics and music are a nice touch and you spent more time giving out information than promoting your course. I am just one person, but I really liked the format of this video and noticed the increased production value!
Thanks for noticing!
This video and your comments gives me hope. I’m so stressed over the fact the my son is 2 years old and is hardly speaking clearly. Often times he’s babbling. Whenever he wants your attention he will take your hand and pull you towards whatever he wants.
I can also see the frustration on his face because I know he wants to talk so we can understand.
Thank you for watching I am glad this gives you hope. I hope my channel helps.
Heyyy same with my son. When he wants milk he will take my hand and lead me to where his milk bottles are. He's copying gestures, copying dances on youtube it's just that he dont talk much but he can say some words like dont, come, red, blue etc and some letters on abc
I'm in the same boat. My son jus turned 2 a couple of weeks ago and does that exact thing...
Same here dear, can't wait till he starts talking
My son does the exact same thing. No matter how much we try, he just takes our hand or pushes us to the thing he wants. He just turned two and he barely says couple of words. Reading comments here makes me feel not as stressed about the matter, knowing we are not alone.
My son was a pandemic kid, we live in melbourne australia where we had the longest lockdown in the world. Basically lived all his life for most part lockdown, while he developed really well he is struggling with speech he is almost 2 now only says mama dada and one word “car” that’s all, we are now seeking a speech therapist for him, we are not alone many lockdown kids are same.
Yep. Same with my son. First time I took him out at 3 he was asking about the weird lights on the floor. He had never seen florescent lights before. 🥺 He's an extrovert so it was super tough on him. He has speech issues as well.
My lock down baby is doing the same
That’s so true my daughter also only says mama and dada and she’s 2 year one month I’m really concerned now 😞😞
Same in here my son is 22 months old and doesn’t use words yet. But also he doesn’t say mama nor dada:(We had a nasty lockdown in Singapore also :(
Same with sister, she is only 2 born in the Covid year, and the only thing says are “mama” “dada” and a little more words..
It’s the best feeling when you come to these videos concerned and leave relieved. 14 months-16 words, right on track. Just frustrated none of them are “mama” lol
Glad you found my videos!
You are wonderful excellent information
I am a speech therapist from Egypt
To everyone who might need to hear it on this thread: if you see signs of autism in your child, it may be because of too much screen time. Please search "virtual autism" as it has become very common during this pandemic. My child has all the symptoms but when taken off all the screens, he has started getting better (especially at eye contact and socialising). Good luck to all of us in this pandemic world.
Thanks for the comment
Thank you
Thank you
You gave me a new hope
That's exactly what happened to my son. Cut off nearly any screentime ( only half an hour in the morning and another half in the evening before bedtime stories) and it's made a huge difference. And it's inly been one week. He even started napping again and his night terror have almost entirely subsided. There is still a lot of work to be done, but he is slowly thriving.
I have my 2 year old in early intervention. She has taught me lots of exercises that I do with my some of random times of the day. He really loves the interaction and engagement. He thinks it’s fun and probably isn’t aware that he’s learning. I see the progress little by little everyday so I’m completely encouraged to take 10 mines out the day a few times a day and sing sings and teach him words and phrases. He may not say the words but I can hear him babbling the melody. It’s so cute. I taught him to clap today which is big bc soon he will see that as a way to show excitement. Slowly he’s checking his milestones off the chart.
Hi Shantiqua! That is amazing! So glad to hear. A little work every day can make a HUGE difference! :)
Omg youre whole video is for me i swear! My son is 21mo and doesnt say words. He babbles like no others business, but doesnt say any words. He is VERY aggressive and has slapped me right in the face! I can tell he is frustrated that he cant speak. Its alot of dadadadadauuuhhuhuhhh.. or varying pitches of uhhh.. and yayayayayayayayayamamamamamamaaa.but cant make the p or w sound. We had an evaluation last week, so hopefully well be seeing a speech therapist soon. They said there is only one in our town. I work with him at home and watch ms. Rachel on youtube. Pray for us.
Hi! I hope speech therapy goes well!
Don't pressure urself mother. We all feel the same way. we just need to be patient and stay communicating to our child. My son is 2 years and 8months old. He only speak few words which he only heard from us daily so we always try to teach him new words and gestures to communicate with us. We don't rush him to speak coz he understands us in some ways and he's a smart kid and always curious in everything. He can manage anything by himself like pulling a chair and climb up the table to get a glass of water or putting his toys on his bag after playing etc.
There are definitely a lot of pressures on mothers, you are doing great teaching his and being patient with him.
Would love to see a collab with you and a child psychologist talking about some of the differences between speech delay and things like autism or attachment disorders in toddlers.
My 3 year old can only say mama ,milk what will i do
Thank You So Much, you gave us hope. 💓
I'm so glad!
Thank you so much ☺️ you make me feel relief.
Happy to help!
Thankyou sooooo much for this!!!
You're so welcome!
Hi Kayla, Thank you for these informational videos. As an adult on the autism spectrum my difficulty among other things is communicating with others socially often invisible in a crowded room, ashamed to have this problem. When people ask me certain questions it takes me time to respond. Often they get upset at me for not answering right away, I have to think about the question and process it and still struggle with stuttering to make a clear answer, Anyway, do you work with adults too or is it only kids, or how do you know if a speech therapist is a right fit as an adult? Thanks. And i am hoping to get help soon through the Regional Center here in Central Cali. Ryan.
I think speech issues are the hardest thing for both kids and parents to go through. I never realized how difficult the English language is to speak until I had kids. It has caused so much frustration. It effects literally everything.
I always worry if kids will make fun of him or if the teacher won't like him if she can't understand him. I didn't discipline him correctly as a toddler bc he didn't speak and I didn't know if he understood the rules. So this led to behavior issues. I even regret his name bc he can't say it. He can write it though. He yells at us sometimes bc "we can't hear him" so I have to explain it's annunciation, not sound. We spent literally 20 min. trying to decipher "look at that dirt pile" while driving on the highway. 🤣 I try to make a joke out of it, but then worry he's looking at it like teasing. Just a lot of emotions with it. I know it's common and most kids outgrow it. It's just frustrating, especially when I see 1 year olds talking in complete sentences. My kid didn't talk until he was close to 3.
Love the second sign
This video was amazing thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you, this video was so helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Curious where you get your numbers. My daughter is 22 months old, and the doctors say 20 words.
God...U explain so well..My questions wr finally answered here... Thanks.
You are welcome!
The way our pediatrician mentioned to us is that yes in many cases the baby or toddler will catch up on their own BUT the thought is the things that seem behind some to do speech, physical therapy or both so that when you get to pre-k the child worse case is even to ahead of the curve instead of counting on catching up naturally and being behind the curve. Then everything can amplify in a negative and bigger way when they go to pre-k.
Thanks for the perspective.
Agreed! Very helpful!!!
So glad!
My son is 17.5 months and he says 6 or 7 words and the other is his baby language daadaa and other babling
He understands when i say close the door open the door or the fridge he knwos every furniture and some of body parts ...he points when he want something or when he show something to me and am very glad seeing this video
Hi my son is turning 3 this. Coming june. he can spell and read some words. he knows his name but no conversation. Is it speach delay
Yes, this is my son. He just turned 2 years old over the weekend, and really only says Mama.
If you can I would see out an evaluation for him, just so you know!

My kid also
How’s he doing now?
My son just turned 12 months and he still hasn’t said mama. ☹️🙄
@@tinyking11 me too ☹️
Great information
Glad it was helpful!
Very helpful! Thank you.
My child knows a lot of words and understands me most of the time but cannot communicate, how do I address that?
My son use to say dada, bye bye and mummy but now he doesn’t really talk. Once in a while he says mummy but when asked to repeat it he just smiles. Do i need to see a speech therapist?
How do u think is there a difference in speech development for twins?
My son has all of this ...some people keeps telling me go get him check cuz I know he might have some issue ....he was such a good baby until he was 1 ....than he started to watch TV and smartphone and he started to close himself up . We went to the doctor he did alla the test and everything was ok .No screen time and no smartphone ....He started to improve but in this day he still is not talking ...he says Ah for everything .. points towards everything he wants or wants to show me . And the dog says wof wof .....I am about to start speech therapy and hopefully it will help
Very helpful for me thanks 🙏🏼 first vídeo that really help me 🙏🏼🙏🏼
You are so welcome! Please share the video on social media.
Do you accept insurance for speech and language services?
What if your child only shows signs from number 1? I can ask him for some from the other room and he gets what I ask.
My son is 3 1/2 and exhibits 4/5 signs. I’m concerned and have been seeking speech therapy but everyone has costs we just can’t afford right now. He was our first child and we as first time parents could benefit from some direction
You can have him evaluated and they will do the speech therapy for free (if he qualifies) as early intervention. Then he will receive speech therapy. If he's in school like preschool or daycare you can ask to have him evaluated. Otherwise your pediatrician can send you to a speech therapist to be evaluated. Either case they drag their feet so you do have to sorta push the issue.
My son was 3 yrs old. He started talking when he was before 2 yrs old. Now he is 3 yrs old and only 2 to 3 words. But still cannot communicate well like other 3 yr old kids. He can count upto 100. Know alphabets,colors,vegetables fruits, but he is not that much communicating when you talk to him. Sometimes he is talking with His own words. Is it normal? I'm a little bit worried. That he has speech delay. And He was little bit shy and afraid with other people. Specially this pandemic he is not socializing with others because he is only at home. Is that affects his social communication?
My child can't say R and L words..What should I do to make him speak these?
Thank you so much for this 💕
You're so welcome!
See my child isn’t talking yet he’s 21 months but he understands everything we say. And I mean he actually understands. We dont use our hands to talk to him and he can follow any demand we give him. Like “go throw that in the garbage please” etc
I was trying to find the world list you talked about for the different ages and I can't seem to find it? Would you be able to show me the link?
Hi Jess! Here you go! walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/five-signs-printout/
Hi
Please my child is 4 years
But he could not speak properly, I only hear few of his Worlds, he can sing and talk, but you won't hear what is saying properly 😔
I don't know what to do 😔
Please I need help 😢🙏
We don't have kid therapy here
Hi, my child has #1 sign and has very less vocab. So how can we go from here. We have Kaiser and in Temecula ( near to San Diego)
Hi! If you are interested in therapy with me, send me an email therapy@walkietalkie.education
Thank you
CDC guidelines say a toddler should have minimum 50 words by 24 months. Where are you getting 200? My son is 23 months and has 70 words and is stating to put 2 word phrases together. Is therapy needed?
These videos are helpful thanks for sharing. I have hope for our babies. My son is 2 1/2 he doesn’t say much but he understands what I’m saying to him. He can say mama daddy Tay nana Jesus. If you’re wondering I pray and go to church. So that’s why he says Jesus.
My son is 3 years old and it’s actually how you describe him like you met him. I wish I could come to I’m all the way in London

My baby 16 month old but he still not talking anything. However dada or mama.
The waving thing has been debunked. Toddlers and babies are instinctually meant to question who is around them other than their mother/father. They will not always want to interact and wave and be all bubbly with new people. It is extremely common to question new people.
well why some don't even wave at their parents and family members they see every day? and there are many happy children that wave at strangers all the time. it has NOT been debunked.
My son is two years and 4 months old, he understands most of things obeys commands, turns back when i call his name, but he speaks with him self all the time in his own language and doesnt reply to us when we ask him somethimg. What to do.
Greetings! 4 months is still pretty young, typical vocabulary expectations should be around 2-6 words by 12 months (not including mama and dada). I have tons of free videos on my youtube to help with a few small things but if you are looking for a step-by-step guide on exactly what to do then look into my online course for parents called "How to Teach a Toddler to Talk." school.walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/
Hi Kyla I haven 2yearold&months until now she didnot to speack sentence but she know says daddy no borrow Baby goodbye only That she says Pls Help ME what Can Ido
Speak with her pediatrician if you are concerned, here is another video on speech delay ua-cam.com/video/jXRe7XZZqeQ/v-deo.html I hope this helps
My son in law spoke to his therapist and she said same thing: her one child didn’t speak until 3.
I had 2 children who started speaking at 6 months, one at 3. But, he used pointing and hand gestures, and then at 3 spoke in full sentences. So, I wasn’t concerned about my grandson at first. Now, what his father does is not to acknowledge is that Max had many more words 6 months ago, now, almost none.
Speech regression is totally different than a late talker. Beware uninformed parents getting information with uninformed information.
Using sign language with young ones helps SO MUCH with communication, especially when they struggle with language. It is always good to get an evaluation from a trained professional. Best of luck to you!
So weird that my son does go do why I say without my hands , he’s interactive with other kids us he plays all the time ! He says very little words and babbles also and he is 31 months he’s in early intervention and he says some things and he gets frustrated that’s the only one he has but yet still not saying everything ! I just tried I told him to go get his cup without pointing he got out of bed and went to find it and brought it back I’m so confused I don’t think the speech therapy helps via FaceTime though I was worried about autism but he clearly doesn’t have that ugh
A friend’s 2 1/2 yr old only says ‘ehhhhhh’ while pointing. It is very annoying to me when I am with her. I have not heard her say anything. She also gets very upset if she is around other kids she does not know…to the point of having to leave the event.
What could be the cause for the toddler to delay to speak?
Could it be genes or the environment the child is in or what?
My son just turned 4 he’s still behind a bit but talks and communicates great. My biggest pet peeve when we were in the early years was people telling just read books to him as though that was it. I just ignored it they meant well
That is great he communicates well. I am sure they meant well!
This is so relatable. Soon as you said babbling my son says 3 main words, which are Dora (childminder is Laura and can't say it yet), dada and ugh (grunt). He's 18 months, and I'm in the UK and tried my health visitor for almost a year with no luck, my childminder is also helping with the referral and soon as he hit 18 months they were able to escalate it on my behalf x
I am glad this helps you! Feel free to check out my free guidebook here, walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/emaillist/
Hi there I’m also in the uk and was wondering what one needs to do to get a referral… may daughter will be 2 in feb do I just wait till that health review we somehow didn’t have an 18month one … yikessss
Hi, my son is 3 years old and 2 months. I'm a young mom so I'm kind of really don't know much but my son never really had any kids to play with so in terms of his speech he does be trying to count but it's not clear and as for words like mama or dada his not saying . I'm not sure what to do if I should get him to speech therapy or just wait a bit and see what to do
Hi! It’s best to get help sooner rather than later. I’m glad you found my channel. I have tons of free tips on UA-cam but if you are looking for a step by step guide then check out my online course school.walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/
My daughter is 20 months old and is “talking” (over 100 words) but she only says part of a word.For example for dog she says da, cat is ca, happy is hap. She does this for all words she is learning and I try to get her to repeat the word the proper way. Her pediatrician wants to wait until 2 for a referral to speech therapy.
That is great she is definitely trying, here is a video on some DIY speech therapy you can try if you are concerned ua-cam.com/video/6tbWU2shHvw/v-deo.html I hope this helps.
I have a one year old who has spent most of her life quarantined and minimal interaction with other children and I wonder if that is a contributor to her semi delayed speech? She says a few words (mama, dada, baba) but no other words. I’m a first time mom so honestly I’m not sure if that’s a normal amount or not.
Hi CMC, this is a rough time to be raising a little one with quarantine and far more social isolation. That could certainly be part of the problem. Do you read to her every day? Talk to her throughout the day?
Also, I have tons of free videos on my youtube to help with a few small things but if you are looking for a step-by-step guide on exactly what to do then look into my online course for parents called "How to Teach a Toddler to Talk." school.walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/
@@WalkieTalkieSpeechTherapy thank you so much for responding! I do read to her every night before bed, but she’s so tired and fussy by then that I think maybe during the day might be better to do? I talk to her constantly but the bigger words just aren’t coming along. I will say, she is very verbal and constantly babbling to herself so maybe she is saying words and I just can’t make them out.
Of course! I get that, when kids are tired engagement is really hard. But YES read to her during the day then, or check out some of great videos with fun interactive ideas that can help you work with her. If you're feeling really inspired (or when you're ready) I also have an online course that teaches parents how to teach their kiddos how to talk. school.walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/
Hey! I wanted to know if you've seen any improvement in speech. I have a 17 month old who isn't talking (mama, dada, nana and no is the limit). Is your baby talking now? If so what did you do?
I wouldn’t worry the baby is only one years old that is not a concern my baby is doing the same thing I have 3 children they all talked late but they walk early and did everything else two oldest are honor students with absolutely no speech delays try not to compare your child to others or fit them into a timeframe read the other comments each child is different it’s just like a doctor telling us we all have to be a certain weight yes that’s ideal but we are all unique and different I wouldn’t be concerned until the child is like two 1/2 3 years of age
Our three year old granddaughter does not have any level of conversational speech and her parents are too busy glued to their cellphones to recognize that their is an issue.
They need to put down the phone and pay attention to her development.
It’s frustrating...
🤷🏻♀️
So my 16 month old has said a bunch of words but she tends to say them for a few days and then not again. Is that "normal".I can't seem to get her to repeat them with prompting
16 months is very young and I'm glad to hear she is trying out new words. Keep working with her and seek help if you are concerned
Hello Mam,
My daughter is 3.2 years old, she might have a problem of speech delay, she has started repeating since 1 months back only. She repeats few things which she likes, but doesn't make sentences, or communicate with us. Her screen time was more the last year, it was a huge mistake we made and due to covid, she was not going out anywhere, but eventually we have reduced the screen time. We talk to her the whole day, but she doesn't communicate us back. We have admitted her in a playschool, which she will be going from the next month. Mam please suggest, what should we do, should we wait for some time, after she goes to playschool, or we should consult a doctor.
@. Sonal how's your daughter now does you see any difference yet?
Hii sonal your daughter now talks?
So my grandson had speech therapy which ended and there is like little to no progress in my opinion , I’m in MA my grandson who is 3 is in CA.. my daughter sent me a video of him today saying please in sign language , sign language?? He’s not deaf weren’t they supposed to help him with speech ? So I’m
Going to go ahead and assume he has autism
My son is 26 months. He hasn't had time with other children because of the pandemic the past year. We live in Costa Rica with no neighbors and he's having to learn 2 languages. He know lots of words but he just says one word at a time. He will respond to detailed requests like "get that and give it to mommy." Should he be saying sentences? Are we making a mistake by keeping him away from people during this pandemic? I can't get him to keep a mask on and all the parks are closed here. What can I do to help his development?
Do as much interacting with him as you can! I have tons of free videos on my youtube to help with a few small things but if you are looking for a step-by-step guide on exactly what to do then look into my online course for parents called "How to Teach a Toddler to Talk." school.walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/
My son is 21m old..he is very active n understands the things like any other normal kid..but the problem is he only utters a single word mama..or babbles all the time..m so much worried as other kids of his age talk so many words..is this ok? I don't know wot to do plz help me out..
If you are concerned speak with your child's pediatrician. Here is another video on speech delay ua-cam.com/video/jXRe7XZZqeQ/v-deo.html I hope this helps
My Son is 2 yrs n 10 months old and he says A-Z with all the words like apple banana Zebra etc and 1-100 and reverse(100- 1), he sings some poems like humpty dumpty or daddy finger but not clearly. But he doesn't call us Mama or Papa, he use gestures or "Ah" sound to communicate with us. Due to Coronavirus lockdown we re unable to send him to a playpen to play with other children, Does this signify any speech delay? Or He would pick up once he starts playing with kids his age?
Hi Bikramjeet, I cannot say for sure without meeting with him directly. But social interaction is very important, both directly with you and with peers. It is never too soon or too late to begin working at home!

my daughter is 2.5 years old she says her ABC"s and can count 1-10 , she just babbles otherwise i was recommended that she get an eval.. so speech therapy and occupational therapy will be starting soon...I really feel that she knows a lot and is fully aware she just cant let it out yet and she will when she's ready Lord willing.
Hi Hermine, YES I would also recommend an evaluation. If you are also looking to help at home I have a step-by-step guide on exactly what to do. Check out my online course for parents called "How to Teach a Toddler to Talk." school.walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/
How is your daughter doing now?
My Son is turning 2 next month .He could read A to Z and 1 to 10 when he was 15 months old .He not talking , Sometimes he just says “No “ and “wait “.Most of the time he say ABC . When I called his name he don’t respond .Sometime he not interested what happened to other people.
(When he was until 12 months he is normal baby , he responded when we called his name , he interested in everything)
Is it speech delay or Autism ?

and also this one ua-cam.com/video/hhOjf-4Jnac/v-deo.html
My child is 21 months old now. She is not communicating with us. She doesn't try to tell or ask for anything. When she see something like food, water, snacks she shows her interest making some excited actions. Thats all.
Has not started even call mom or dad. What shall I do to improve her ability to communicate?
Reach out to your child's pediatrician if you are concerned. Here is another video on speech delay ua-cam.com/video/DlSQd-4qmi8/v-deo.html I hope this helps.
Hi Kayla , great videos, really helpful. My child is almost 2 years, he says 3 to 5 words but he knows most of the alphabets. If you point your finger to a certain letter, he can say it. only Q, L and W cannot pronounce. He can follow directions and his attention span is really good. he is attentive too. However, compared to his twin brother, he is far behind on saying more words. Any suggestion on which area we as parents should focus on?
Hi! I have tons of video on her to help!
Hiii....my child is 3 years old...bt still he's not talking even he is nt understanding wt I m saying. if I learn sumthing.. he started cry....pl suggest me wt I do.
HI Anu, it would be a good idea to seek an evaluation for your kiddo. He should be speaking and understanding you by 3 years old. A local speech and language pathologist could be very helpful.
Also, I have tons of free videos on my youtube to help with a few small things but if you are looking for a step-by-step guide on exactly what to do then look into my online course for parents called "How to Teach a Toddler to Talk." school.walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/
My nephew is about to be 3 and he has never said a single word. He cant repeat sounds either
Helloo Everyone.. Just finish watching this video 👍🏻
And i read most of the comments here.
All of us are worried that our kids does they have autism or really just speech delay.
I am first time mom here, My 3years old girl just started her school. She never been to any school yet. She is afraid of going to school and not eating any food. She is afraid of trying new food.. When she is baby to 1years old she doesnt have any eyes contact then we realised slowly she have eyes contact with us. Recently she likes to count 1-10 or 10-1
Abc. And want me to read her books.
The school is from 9am to 6pm. THE Principal always ask me to bring her back home early at 1200 as they cant handle her, sometimes felt so depressed when i see my girl like this. Is this normal? Are we going to stop her from going to pre school first? Go speech therapy? Or? What should i do now? 😢
Any suggestions?
We are waiting
Hi waiting for what?
At the age of 20 months, my little girl went to see a speech therapist, because she spoke her fantasy language and knew only 20 real words. Everything was fine with the speech therapist, but she still speaks her language. Of these 5 characters, she has 2. Now she is 2.5 years old, she tells some short sentences of 2-3 words, she knows colors, numbers in two languages, her name and how old she is, she repeats most of the words. But I notice that children her age talk more than she does. She normally lives in a bilingual environment. I need advice sometimes I think it’s ok and sometimes I worry.
Here is a video with more information on speech delay ua-cam.com/video/jXRe7XZZqeQ/v-deo.html. I hope this helps.
I’ve noticed that alot of parents are unwilling to recognize their children have speech delays. I’m a children health care worker and often I see children who are 2 years old and still baby talk and when are spoke to, they have no idea how to communicate. Or they are unable to form simple sentences such as “ I’m hungry”.or “ where are you”. Simple things like that. However, when I speak to parents about it, I’m often faced with “ She talks a lot, she knows a lot.”. I understand parents may not feel happy when told that their child needs help. However, because of their ego, the children end up not getting the kind of help they need.
Wish I was in your area!
My 5 year old daughter is not speaking and still in nappies. She use ah and gesture. Am so frustrated please help.
Speak with your daughters pediatrician about your concerns. Here is another video on speech delay ua-cam.com/video/jXRe7XZZqeQ/v-deo.html I hope this helps.
I tried to talk to my son’s doctor about him not speaking hardly at all he can say dada and bye. He is 19 months old. The doctor literally told me that I was letting him point and grunt rather than trying to get him to communicate without even doing an assessment.
my son is 19 months and uses a lot of sign language to communicate wants, ( down, up, hungry, food, tired, ) etc. Some words are there....I know more should be, but he says a new word every week, everyone is at their pace.
Same! My daughter is 19 months too and mostly signs to communicate. I feel like she’ll speak when shes ready.
My little boy will be fifteen months tomorrow and says only two words. I’m reading him his baby books and talking to him trying to teach him new words. He is also not standing or walking on his own quite yet. He is cruising and has great fine motor skills and is where he should be in a lot of things. Just a bit later then the average. His physical therapist says we can set up an evaluation with speech therapy early, though they usually do that at closer to eighteen months, I guess.
Definitely try to get it scheduled!
My son clocked 2 few days ago... the few words in his vocabulary are- yes, fine, see, and he says them in low tone or sometimes only hum the sounds... although he understands when spoken to and gesticulates alot. He also throw tantrums often and has this abnormal motor movements when doing that.... I’m beginning to get worried, his teacher also said he hardly participate in class activities and doesn’t answer when asked his name....should I see a Paediatrician already?

My son is 16 months old, and not talking like at all. He’s said like mama or dada a few times. He tries to say our dogs name. He doesn’t like to play with other kids. He almost seems terrified of other kids. He plays by himself a lot. I’ve tried showing him shapes and bought him educational toys to help with talking and doing other things. I’ve talked to his doctor about these signs . He didn’t seem too concerned. He said if he’s 2 years old and still “grunting” to communicate; he’d be a little bit concerned. In the mean time, I really don’t know how to help my son. I had him at 19 and just recently turned 21.

My son turned two in December, and he uses some words but not nearly as much as he should. When i get his attention, he seems to pick the things up but once his attention is gone, it's hard to get him back to wanting to learn. Do you have any tips to make things more entertaining for him to keep his attention?
Hi! That can be tough! Take a look at some of my videos on activities.
my son will turn 2 this june and he can't say a word yet even calling me Mama,he is just babbling and making sounds..when we call him he won't make any reaction he will just continue playing and ignore the person calling him but when he watches nursery rhymes in the television he seems understands it and he runs in front of the television when he hears it even he is in the kitchen..i am just really worried..should we go check a doctor?
Check with the doctor if you are concerned. Thank you for watching I hope this video helped
Hey! So I know a Kid....who is 3.8 years old. He is really smart and can count till 100,can name fruits, vegetables,says mom and dad,and name various animals BUT he repeats words that he hears from others.For example ,if someone says "Chloe,come here" he repeat the exact words and says"Chloe come here" .he has been in speech therapy for nearly 1 year although he has improved alot he is not forming complete sentence .If we ask him to follow an instruction he follows them too . But sometimes he does not answer some Yes /no questions. Because of this ,he is not able to mingle with other kids.... :(

So what if your child nos the words but dont barely use them and also do understand some small camands
Hi sounds like it would be a good idea to get a speech and language evaluation.
My son is almost 2 and he used to say about 5 words and then quit altogether. We have a speech therapist but he really isn’t saying much yet. His receptive language is awesome though. We are hoping he’s just a little behind. He says “ba” for everything
Speak with his pediatrician if you are concerned, it is great he is doing well with receptive language! Feel free to sign up for my free guide book walkietalkiespeechtherapy.com/emaillist/
same ba for everything other than mama papa ...and 2 or 3 words...
My son has all of these and he is 5.
I thought it was autism but the psychologist said it wasn't.
We have been to a speech therapist and she say she can't help him cause she thinks is something else than just speech delay.
So I don't get any help from anyone and I'm so stressed about him starting school.
I live in Sweden and we don't have private speech therapists or home schooling program :(
Did your son talked yet
@stephabie could you please share with us if your child started talking it will help a lot of us. Thank you so much
That's my grandson at 3yrs
