How did y’all get your 17 month old to start actually trying to say words ? I feel like a 17 months she should be saying more and it’s making me feel like I’m not doing my part but she’s not even trying when I’m trying to teach her .
I know patience is the key but I’ve never had patience and this is irritating 🤦🏾♀️😭
My baby watched “little baby bum” and they have some phonics songs and stuff and I think that’s where she learned a lot of her first words. Like I’ll go ah ah and she’ll say apple or bu bu and she’ll say bus because of a little song they do on there
Same! Except she's two. She won't even try. She'd rather babble. And whine... It's super frustrating.
@shorty02, omg yesss! It’s just very irritating and when I see other kids her age talking I’m like what I’m i doing wrong 🤦🏾♀️😭
@idontwant2bapie, I’ll try the singing and dancing because she loves to sing and dance. I just pray she soaks it all in
@kyriesmommy_ right! Now since she doesn't want to I have to make her see a speach therapist cause of this delay. The thing is she use to try then stopped. So idk what to do anymore
@shorty02, i just wonder what goes on in their head like I honestly feel like they can talk lol they just wanna make us go crazy
I’m going to also recommend little baby bum. My kids both learned counting, letters, colours, shapes from watching. But try not to worry yet. They usually don’t intervene until closer to two. She will get it.
@shorty02, well shxt we both need to try this little baby bum cus it’s recommend by many lol I’m putting it on right now
Definitely don't worry. I did with my son at that age as he literally said about 3 words.. He's 2 in a fortnight and even now still isn't stringing sentences together.. He's coming on a lot by using flash cards, we just go through them every few days and I'll say the name of an animal for example and then the sound it makes..
He's getting the sounds more than the names but it means he's trying.. All kids are definitely different. I'm not concerned about his speech, he will get there eventually xx
@kerryy23, I want to try the flash cards but everybody keeps saying “she’s to little”
@kyriesmommy_, little baby bum is on Netflix an YouTube it’s helped my daughter a lot too
She’s been watching it since she was about 4 months and has been a very verbal baby
She’s been blabbering her words as long as I can remember it feels like
Not all of them are real but still
@kyriesmommy_ definitely not too little, never too early to try teaching them 😊 xx
@kyriesmommy_, btw you aren’t doing anything wrong at all 💕 all babies develop differently and for all you know she could be incredibly shy, addi used to talk to herself when she thought we weren’t around more than she ever did in front of us it took a lot of time for her to get comfortable to talk to us she’s barley getting comfortable with talking in public
@lost.sock.thief, we are watching it right now lol and she hasn’t moved one bit
@lost.sock.thief, maybe that’s what it is because she’ll talk to me more than anybody else. So when she actually says a word I’m excited and trying to show others and she just smiles until they leave and she’ll say it ... never thought of her being shy though lol
@kyriesmommy_, lots of babies get shy lol it’s perfectly normal (:
It could be a shyness thing or confidence thing addi I know when she started walking wouldn’t walk in front of anyone but me An zach for the longest time because she stumbled An fell a lot and it embarrassed it I feel like idk she didn’t show anyone else for the longest time until she was confident about it
I bet she’s just a little shy (:
@lost.sock.thief, that is so cute lol this is a fun experience, babies always amaze me. Your comment actually made me feel soooo much better about this lol thank you 🙏🏾💕
Consistency is key. Repeating and pointing at the object will eventually get them to speak.
@coffee_is_the_new_black, ohhh I’ve been trying that but you know how babies attention span
@kyriesmommy_ I know. They're stubborn sometimes lol but don't worry she'll get it before you know it.😊
What is the normal rent for a 1br / 1ba in your area? I’m currently paying $857 a month & I really feel like it’s overpriced
I learned it’s ok not to be ok thanks to @leonardsquared, I’m going to try remembering that whenever I feel like I’m failing as a mom because I can’t do the things I used to do.....I’m just sick of feeling sick 😔
Feeling like I’m ready to pop at this point!
Well ladies sadly I’m 1cm and doctor say most likely she will be here next month
When do you get heartburn? I’m 6 months and I don’t feel anything is that bad?
