My son is 18 months old and has a speech delay. He says very little words, and they are momma, dadda and no. I’m really concerned as his nursery today flagged that he is completely non verbal at nursery. He tends to play by himself and doesn’t get involved with singing and dancing. When we are at home he likes to da...
So my 6 month old fake cries when she’s not getting her own way and I mean it’s the most horrendous noise. Then when you tell her off she laughs. Any advice on how to deal with this as she’s obviously doesn’t understand no and she just thinks it’s fun
Does anyone else hear other sounds when their babies white noises machines are on? The other night I could hear bloody chanting on top of the white noise and then another night I heard rain falling… and tonight I can hear some weird melody. I did in fact google it and it is apparently common… but was just wondering ...
My LG is nearly 16 months and isn’t speaking, no ‘mama’, ‘dada’, nothing! She does babble but that’s it, and her understanding of basic instructions isn’t good. We saw the health visitor today about this and we have now been referred for speech therapy, portage and also seeing a specialist for a review of my LG deve...
Anyone’s babies starting laughing yet? If so how old? Just wondering if I should be concerned that my 12 week old has only laughed one or twice
Hey guys, I have an 18 month old son and I’m really confused because he was saying a couple words like mama and baba but then he suddenly stopped and hasn’t said a word since, it’s been around a month and I don’t know if I should be concerned or if it normal? He makes random noises and point to whatever he wants but...
Hi. My little boy is 2 years and 8 months old. He is developing very well in most areas. He is really sociable and friendly, good speech, understands a lot etc but he does a few really odd things that make me wonder if I'm missing something. We went to the beach a few weeks ago and he was so upset with the sand on h...
18 month old babies, how many words is you baby saying?
Is your 14/15 month old communicating needs, ie pointing, saying or signing? I feel like my lo has had a huge speach/communication regression where they can’t communicate even non verbally
I don’t know if I am being paranoid but my 10mo (9m corrected) seems to bang his head back if he is leaning against a surface (such as our kitchen cabinets) and also seems to shake his head from side to side in like a ‘no’ fashion, but it will be very sporadic that he does it, he also seems to hit his head on the si...
We’ve noticed our baby will be looking and giggling off in different directions, but there is nothing and no one there, just blank walls. Is this normal?
My dog was always good around children until the last year or so. Over the last few weeks he has been good with my niece and nephews and not snapping or biting. However yesterday with friends he bit one of the children. he was fine letting them feed him and then the moment he was stroked be snapped. I know it don’t...

Currently she has a small cut on her pinky toe and will not walk, she will not let me look at it, place the band aid properly, she will not let me put socks on and she will literally limp and act like she broke her ...

I saw another post that got me thinking whether anyone else little one I'd like this.... My little one learns his skill and you'll have a couple of days of him absaloutly loving showing off and then you won't see it again for ages ...the only thing that seems to have stuck is pointing ..he very very rarely waves any...
