18 month old Vocabulary
Hi... What are you 18-24 month olds saying at this point? It seems like Alexis was saying much more then the babies are at this age. Emma says "wow wow" for a dog, Agua for water and, sheesh for cheese anytime she sees a camera and daddy and mommy. Aislyn says mama and cheese and nothing more. ~Kimberly Mommy to Alexis Iliana 07/17/99 and Emma Elidia & Aislyn Gabriela 10/01/02 come see us... http://www.babiesonline.com/babies/a/aislynemma/ |

18 month old Vocabulary
Kim,
I am glad to know that your girls aren't talking that much either. Alexis says more than Aidan. She says, Mama, Dada, Matt, (DH's name), Pop-Pop (my Dad), Hi, yeah, down, this, hot, fish, Ba-Ba (Grandma in Russian) Aidan basically just says Mom, Da, Ba-Ba, down and Matt. But, they know so many more "commands", like where is your socks, do you want a tubby and stuff like that. And, they know how to shake their head yes and no. They babble constantly to each other and as long as they are babbling, that is what I think is important.

18 month old Vocabulary
I am hearing everywhere that multiples are late in their speech development,
predominantly because of their ability to communicate with one another in their own language, and due to less one-on-one conversation from parents as compared to singleton children. My girls will be 2 years old next month. One of my daughters will mimic words she hears, will try to sing songs and can communicate something she wants. My other daughter barely has five words and does not even say "mama" on a regular basis. I've notived lately though that she seems to be improving in her UNDERSTANDING of language. She will go get a toy if I ask her where it is, or come to her high chair if I ask her if she's hungry. I'm thinking that if her language comprehension is improving, her speech will soon follow. My son started talking at the age of 9 months, and was speaking in full sentences at the age the girls are now. So, I'm definitely convinced that this is a twin issue. It seems that a lot of us are in the same boat. I'm going to metion it to our pediatrician next month when they have their 2-year check-up.

Aislyn says mama and cheese and nothing more. My son had no words at all until after 18 months, not even Mama. (My girls had some words by that age, but not a great many -- I don't think they were way ahead of yours.) I wouldn't worry just yet as long as you are pretty sure that their hearing is fine. The standard I have heard is that you consider consulting with a speech pathologist if they don't have around 50 words by around 2 years of age. My son had about 35 words at age two, and I did eventually have him evaluated. He was on the low side for expressive speech, but not low enough to need therapy, and his hearing, receptive speech (what he understood) and enunciation were all very good for his age. --Helen |
