Talking

How many words is your LO saying? My son is 13mos and only says mama and dada when he cries. But I feel like he doesn’t even understand a lot of other words like yes, no, hello etc. We speak to him in 2 languages could this be why? Or am I expecting too much too soon?

Mine can only say mama, dada or yay. I think she understands her name and simple words like “stop” and “come here”. We speak to her in four languages. I think it’s normal, especially for children exposed to many languages. Some children I know from bilingual families didn’t speak even at two years old.

She saying hiya, mama, dada, duck, bye and woof woof. It's definitely normal for children who are exposed to different languages to take a bit longer to speak. I wouldn't worry 🙂

No words other than babble mama dada etc.

Thanks guys! Put my mind at rest a bit 😅

None 😂
