DCB 23 Mos And Still Not Talking? Any Ideas?

[2grls4us]

This DCB has moved on to another larger daycare. Closer to home and same facility as his older brother. No hard feelings his mom and I are close friends. But yesterday was his first day at the new facility and she sent me a text saying they have suggested taking him to have his hearing tested or they would send a referral so they could have a speech therapist come to the center and work with him. So I guess it was not just me. He has started saying a few things but you have to know what he's talking about to understand.

My DD spoke another language till 2.5, we called it Artesian, others thought it was babble. Turned out to be very narrow ear canals and wax build up in there so she was talking it was just distorted. Ear drops a couple of times and she hasn't shut up since, she's 33.

I have had children over the years that are late talkers and at 23 months I would not be worried.

I had a dcg that did this, we joked she was speaking Chinese. She would have complete conversations but it was all babble. It lasted about 6 months and she is quite the talker now. Of course she is also in college now. My how the time flies.
