[quote=Anonymous]Talk to your ped of course but I just went through this about 3 weeks ago. DS, 19 months, has his 18 month appointment and I was concerned he didn't have many words. When the doctor asked me to list off what he says I was surprised to see that he has more than I thought (ex- bebe for baby or blueberries depending on context). Every kid is different and our doctor offered a referral if we wanted it but said he was not at all concerned. His receptive language is great and he communicates through head nods and pointing pretty well. We're a few weeks out and he has a few new words - so we're feeling better! If we don't see some more progress we will seek an evaluation but for now we're encouraging speech and kind of letting him do his thing.[/quote]
