[quote=Anonymous]My younger son hit the 50 words mark at 18 months, much slower than his older brother. After that, he had the rapid increase in talking that a lot of books mention. I remember worrying about it and then he hit the takeoff point about a month later. Birth order is known to play a role. However, my two sons are also different physiologically (height, body shape). Intellectually as teens they are on the same level, with the older still being more verbal. Near identical total PSATs but opposite areas of strength. It's appropriate to be attentive and raise concerns once, as a primary caregiver. Hopefully your DIL will relax once more progress is shown or an assessment gets done. [/quote]
