[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son is 17 months old and probably has about 20 words, and we speak English, and his nanny and sister speak Spanish.  He understands both.

Your DD is still within the range of normal - do you feel like she comprehends? Can she follow directions?  She'll probably surprise you when she's 2, and bust out with a full sentence. [/quote]

OP here. Thanks... I feel like she understands some but probably more our motions... like waving for her to come over and things like that.

We have our 15m appt next week and obviously this will come up... I am not sure at one point they want you on the waiting list for early intervention. I wouldn't even think of starting that NOW but I know the waiting lists are quite long. Is that something MD's will usually put in a referral for this early just so that we are on the waiting list? I don't want to wait until 18m until she is actually concerned and then I have another few months before I can see someone, you know?

MDs do not put in referrals to early intervention. You call them directly yourself. No need to wait for doctors appointments.[/quote]

Thanks! Haven’t dealt with any of this with my first. [/quote]
