[quote=Anonymous]This may be another case of an FTM being driven batty by "What to Expect" but I thought I'd throw it out there -- our 13 mo DS is a happy, cheerful kid who seems to be hitting all the physical/motor skills milestones right on time, but he still hasn't started using any words. He makes sounds (ya ya ya, da da da, ma ma ma, etc) and babbles at us or to himself, but he isn't attaching any sounds to objects yet - so, for example, mamama isn't me, or milk, or anything in particular, it seems to be just the noise he feels like making at the time. Our pediatrician took note at our 12 month visit and said to keep an eye on it for another month or two. It's been a month - is it time to start worrying? Or more importantly, time to start doing anything about it? I assume the next step would be some kind of testing, but who/what/where? I'm not even sure where to start. [/quote]
