[quote=Anonymous]DS is almost 17 months and not really talking. He's definitely said mama and dada with meaning, and one of our dogs' names, but that happens on a weekly basis, not an hourly or even daily one. Pediatrician said that expressive language alone is not an indication of delay. Because DS clearly understands us ("go hug mommy," "put this in the trash," "give this to [dog]," "go upstairs for a bath," and he does them all), and is on track in all the other social and physical milestones, he said there was nothing to worry about. He also is clearly picking up intonation and speech patterns--his babbling is quite conversational. So I don't worry. Much as I wish we could move past his communicating with grunts and squeals.[/quote]
