[quote=Anonymous]My son was that way. At two he technically met the milestone for hitting enough words (100 I think?) but just sounded really different than other kids. I few people suggested I get him checked by a therapist, make sure there were no developmental issues. My gut told me there was nothing developmental but nonetheless still something wrong. Had his hearing checked and he had only fifty percent hearing in both ears because of fluid. Doctor was wrongly conservative about ear tubes and punted for a year (also because we were dealing with some other medical issues that took priority) and finally had tubes put in at 40 months. Speech improved decently as soon as he fluid was out, but we did therapy to compensate for the lost time. He's doing great and I suspect we can stop the therapy after six months. if your gut tells you he is very different than the other kids, go to an audiologist. Pediatrician can't always see the fluid.
