when did your twins start talking?
Chris was a VERY late talker and did end up having to have speech therapy.
But Kathleen was speaking in full sentences by 2 and of course talking for her brother which was one of the issues of late speech. Shirley "Anita" wrote in message e.rogers.com... My twins and their singleton siblings all started talking around 9 or 10 months and were speaking in full sentences before their second birthdays. Unfortunately they all talk A LOT and often all at once. It's a madhouse over here. Anita "The Fackrell's" wrote in message news:aJTRa.78669$GL4.19819@rwcrnsc53... So when did everyone's twins+ start talking?? I know that by *standards* they should know about 15-20 words by 18mos and my first born fell short of this and eventually had speech therapy (he'll continue it in kindergarten, his enunciation is horrid).....my twins are almost 15mos and still just say "ma" "da-da"....now, being that they have the older brother....I'm NOT rushing the talking issue!!! one that talks nonstop is enough for me right now! lol but I was curious as to everyone else's timeframe. (ok, I just like to read email and all my lists are really slow lately!) lol oh, and has anyone had their twins+ develop their own language?? -- Gwen, Designer Wraps SAHM to James (9-98) Austin and Amber (5-02) tired of eBay?

when did your twins start talking?
When I found out we were having twins, I was really looking forward to the
idea of them making up their own language. Didn't happen though. To answer your question, our girl had her first legible two-word sentence at 11 months and was a chatterbox soon after. Our boy, now 22 months, still only has a few words that we can tell, and they aren't very clear. However, I should caution you to not equate talking with learning. If one of your kids is learning well, he may not choose to verbalize it. "The Fackrell's" wrote in message news:aJTRa.78669$GL4.19819@rwcrnsc53... So when did everyone's twins+ start talking??

when did your twins start talking?
Hi,
My twins are 18 months now and babble like mad to each other, we don't have a clue what they're talking about!!! I would say in a fashion, they say half a dozen words that we actually understand. My healthvisitor warned me about this so I'm not concerned. Also, she said that when they do start to talk, one will probably do all the talking, the weaker (or probably more sensible) twin not saying much. I guess we'll find out soon enough, its all very entertaining!! We also have a 6 year old boy who talks way too much so I know how you feel!!!

when did your twins start talking?
So when did everyone's twins+ start talking??
My girls started talking at 7 1/2 months. They are BIG talkers. They ask me about 10,000 questions per day! I'm so afraid they're going to get into trouble when they start 5-K because they both talk non-stop. When they're quiet I know trouble's brewing. oh, and has anyone had their twins+ develop their own language?? Not really, but once in a while I'll hear them using a word I don't understand when they talk to each other, but they will never use these words when they talk to me. If I ask them what the "nonsense" word means they just look at each other, say the word, and laugh. So I guess the joke's on me. I've never been able to tell if these words are mispronunciations or if they are truly made up words. Andrea twin girls-Jordan & Madison 3 yrs. old |

when did your twins start talking?
My twins are almost 3 and just in the past 6 mos. have started talking in
sentences. Before that, it was rare that they'd put more than 3 words together. Alex did have speech therapy, but as long as the hearing is fine the rest will probably come. Ellen -------- Erin 6/26/95 Bradley & Alex 10/5/00 |
