*Worried first time mum*

Hey everyone first time mum here ! My boy is 13.5 months and can only say uh oh (which he says correctly when he falls over or drops something) and Dada which he says to his Dad but also to other things too! He can't say anything else yet though. Is this normal ?? He's been walking since 12 months, can clap wave and point.

That's completely normal. It sounds like he's doing great! 💕

My boy is nearly 15mths and is about the same as yours.

Totally normal! My eldest didn't day his first word (apple) until 17 months and he was still very much in the typical range.

Sounds great. If you want to help his language development just talk and read to him loads. When my son points at things I’ll tell him the name of it so he can learn to say what he needs/wants.

It's very normal, if he was saying no words by 18 months then it's more a concern. My little boy could say 4 words and has not said them for months now (around 4-5 months) he's been classed as 'forgotten' them by professionals for now (was saying mum still up until a month ago and hasn't since seeing his paediatrician)

My 14 month old is saying about the same but not walking yet. Every baby is different.

If anything, I think that's really good!! My daughter is the same age and can't say any words yet, hope this helps Xx

My daughter is the same and it was good to read all the comments :) 🙏🏼

The lady who runs our sensory class said today that some little ones say their first words closer to two or even three and thats totally normal! (She's an early years specialist). Theres a really big window that they can start saying words in and thats fine, every child is different 🤗

Mine doesn’t say anything with purpose yet! It will come 😊

My son (13m) said his first word at 7.5 months but doesn’t crawl or walk. They really are all so different.
