[quote=Anonymous]Mom of two boys here, and neither spoke anything at 18 months. Really caused a lot of stress and I did get an evaluation done for my second. Turns out they weren't concerned and had pretty low standards (30 words by 2). With older son, even with the 5-10 words he knew, he rarely spoke them (rarely said mama or dada for example). It was almost like he just didn't feel the need to speak. With both kids, language exploded around 2-2.5. Feel free to ask your daughter about the speaking but I would not push it. As second time parents, it's likely already on their radar, and again, this is VERY common for boys. [/quote]
