My son is able to count to 10 and say majority of his ABCs but won’t say any other words or sentences 😩. I spoke with a SLT so hoping for some help going forward

My little boy is the same he’s been walking since about 9 months. My friends is a speech and language therapist she said babies are either walkers or talkers and not to worry. He is saying some words like mama dada car etc. but I’m not worried we read to him and he is spoken to constantly and he will definitely get there I think he put all his effort in to moving to begin with 😅

did you self refer for a SLT?

My son is barely walking. Chooses when he can be bothered to. But can say a few words. Maybe not clear to some but we understand what he means. For eg. He says Mama, Dada, Nana, No, Cat, Bowwow, up, Down, Ready, Apple, Bubble, go and maybe some others. They’re not 1000% clear but we understand xx

Leaky nappy help

What nappies are you using to stop leaks?? We use pampers ultra dry size 5, and for the past few nights he has lashed through and we’ve had to completely change him during the night. Last night he leashed through twice!! He sleeps on his front and stays leaks through at the top of his leg where the tabs connect. Didn’t know whether to size up, he has a bit of a belly on him but he’s smack in middle of weight guidance so shouldn’t need too

He use to sleep through the night now he is waking up every single night in the early morning, I've had to transition him to a toodler bed as he kept climbing out his cot.

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

6 month old autistism

My 6 month old makes no eye contact with me and doesn’t respond when I call him. Can this just be a phase or personality trait as apposed to autism

5.30am wakeups 😫😴

My 15 week old has started waking up about 5.30am and is really hard to settle back down - it’s like he thinks it’s time to wake up for the day. He used to go to bed at 9pm and was up at 8am but now he goes to bed between 7.30-8pm as he’s knackered by then but waking up at 5.30am😴. Any advice to get him to sleep a little longer in the morning?! Even an extra hour would be lovely 🤣
