Speech Logan's 18 months and dosent say a single word! He says mama and dada VERY rarely and just sort of grunts and…

Ella is 18 months aswell and doesn't say much. She says Mam dad, Hiya and Kenzie (her brother) c

My daughter didn't really say a great deal at that age either and we were worried. But she is now 3, you can have a full conversation with her and doesn't shut up talking. Looking back I'd say 18 months is still quite young try not to worry xx

My son could only say mama and dada at 18 months and didn't say anything else until he started nursery then when he turned 2 and started nursery he started coming out with single worlds and a few months later sentences followed some of it sounded clear and some of it didn't, he's now 3 and can say a lot of words and sentences some very clear and some not clear! We saw a healthvisitor who now wants to assess his speech to see if he need speech therapy, but I feel like his speech is coming on amazingly now and so does the nursery it's just a lazy boy thing I wouldn't be concerned at all at 18 months.Xx

My son has always been a 'talker' lol but he is an only child (only for another 2 months ?) He was saying quite a bit at 18 months but used to get really frustrated if we didn't understand him so kinda had to speak more. Could it be because he has older sibling? They can get a bit lazy if they got siblings to say or do things for them. I really wouldn't worry at 18months tho, my sons speech really picked up around 2 x

Thanks girls I feel so reassured now my mum said my brothers took longer to talk than I did so just gonna put it down to boys being lazy? xx

My son was like this... he didn't really start talking until he was nearly 2, now at 2 years 3 months he doesn't stop talking lol... he's a little parrot xx

The twins are like this, they babble constantly but aren't forming proper words yet, I've had a chat with my health visitor as I'm a bit concerned they are behind in their development but she said not to worry xx

Also I got told by speach and language not to worry till he's at least 2

I thought this about harri he is now 23 months and he's only just started talking I was really worried about his but it's just come along in time.

Beau has just turned two and hardly says much more, it's definitely a lazy boy thing x

Maybe it's a boy thing... bear says mama rarely and he's just learnt to say NO! He says daddy(well diddii) quite alot but calls everyone it lol his first proper proper word is NO! Tho... probably from me say no dont hit your brother or when his aunties and Nanny say no Wilson(dog) when he barks lol x
