[quote=Anonymous]Does she point to things and look back at you to show them to you? Does she point to things she wants? Does she use gestures such as shake her head for no etc? The average number of words at 12 months (meaning what 50% of 12 month olds can say) are 2-6 words. The milestone (what 90% of 12 month olds) can say is 1 word. So, based on that she does seem a little behind but pre-verbal communication is more important at this stage. Also remember that animal sounds or car sounds count as words at this stage. In any case I agree that there is literally no harm in seeking an evaluation, it’s free through the county, you can self refer. She may be fine without intervention, but why take the risk? [/quote]
