[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]2/24 months was when we were told to worry. Try the baby babble videos and get an assessment and start therapy around two.[/quote] For a child with no receptive language, that's really late. Early intervention is key, and getting a If my child had no words or word approximations (things they say where you know what they mean, even if they don't sound much like the word), and wasn't following any directions at 15 months I'd start reaching out, knowing that it could take a little while to get an eval, and that would probably mean starting therapy closer to 18 months. This doesn't mean that it might not be a "delay", but therapy can be quite helpful in addressing delays as well. [/quote]
