Following directions

Hi mamas, does your baby follow directions and commands? I feel like mine does not do anything that I ask her, she talks a lot and says words but will not do what I ask her to do.

It’s more important whether baby understands. My son does often do what I say. But either way I know he understands. Pediatrician says it’s less about talking and more about understanding what is said to them. My older son has autism and looking back he never really understood/processed what I was saying. See if baby understands you while you’re playing together. It’s possible she just doesn’t want to listen bc that’s happening around the clock here. But when it’s fun and playful and she wants to you can see what she’s capable of

Sometimes yes , sometimes no.. example if i ask her to come here she comes ,if i tell her close the light or close the fridge (she likes close things 😂) she does.. but there's days that she literally ignores what im saying ..

Can she help you get her shoes or wash her hands or transition type things?

Some days he does most days he doesn’t 😂 I literally had to clap at him all day to get his attention today

I’d keep an eye on it. It could be her personality. My older son was like that and it got worse between 18 months and 2. My little one now almost all the time responds even if it’s with an angry face, a scream or cry or something…but again it’s a different personality as he has always been super observant of everything going on around him
