[quote=Anonymous]OP, our 19 month old is similar. 11 words if we include animal sounds and incomplete words. We are doing early intervention since she had zero words at 16 months. It's one of those things where she's probably fine and one of those "late talkers" that will catch up, but you never know. There could be some physical issue (like hearing) affecting speech, and it's important to rule that out because the sooner those things are addressed the easier it will be to catch up. Early intervention can help point you in the right direction in terms of what kinds of medical tests you should seek. And they are really good at teaching strategies for encouraging them to speak and use more words. Really recommend it - this is such a critical time for language development.[/quote]
