[quote=Anonymous]Oh, yes, at 20 months your child has a great chance! Speech delays do take time, waaaaayyyy longer than you think, and you often can't see any improvement because it's incrementally slower. I think it's important to think quarterly: what can your son do now that he couldn't do 3 months ago, so that's mid summer? Was he getting frustrated less now because he knows to point for what he wants even if he doesn't have the words yet? Is he starting to repeat anything or use any signs? that he wasn't mid-summer? Etc. 20 months is so, so, so young. Most 20 year olds are not speaking in sentences or even phrases - there are lots of single words, and so many words can't be understood by anyone other than parents and primary caregivers (muk muk for milk, for example) [/quote]
