[quote=Anonymous]Just want to add, like others have said all it means is she’s not an EARLY talker. And she wasn’t an EARLY walker. But the good thing is, when kids hit these milestones as long as they are within the range is not necessarily indicative of intellectual or physical abilities later in life. The kid that walked at 16 months may be just as physically capable or even more than the kid who walked at 11 months. The kid who was talking in sentences at 18 months may always be super smart and be an early reader, but a normal talker like your kid may be also. It’s really fun once you’re at 3-5 you see how they all really even right out :) by then they’re all walking and talking your ear off! Doesn’t really make a difference at that point whether they did it early or “late” unless the late is truly delayed and was information that there was something deeper going on. [/quote]
