attentive mother- Re: Has anyone notice this?

[Guest guest]

My second son used to bite his older brother on the back and got payback when

HIS little brother did the same to him. Second son--delayed speech; the other

speaking in full sentences right off the bat.

Do girls bite, too?

Making sounds, but they likely have no understanding about what it is. It's just

babble, and they usually make several similar sounds, a new one every few days,

seems to be the focus. We babble the same sound right back at them, and they

look at you like Yeah, that's what I said! LOL

I work for Early Intervention and our testing standards say that kids

should be making consonant/vowel combos like " mama " and " dada " by 6-8

months.

My second son, , the late speaker used to speak " cat " when he was 2 or 3. He

would meow whatever he had to say and if I answered him in " human, " he would get

mad. If I meowed back, he'd say " Meow " as in, yes, that's it.

Kendall is 13 months and has about 25 words and bites. My son has bruises when

she gets him good before we can stop her. She hits, bites, pinches, etc. You can

see the look of frustration on her face when she wants something and can't

have/get it. For her at least I don't think communication and biting are

related. I think she just gets mad  LOL

It could be as simple as that. Does your son scream and cry when she bites him?

Could be fun for her, making the bigger kid squawk.

That sounds like a very gifted child. They can be so odd and

Well, he's 16 now so we've already discovered his " genius. " He a musician,

artist and a math whiz and over the years we've had much eye rolling and

laughing over things he has said/done. He has a different take on things than

others--very intuitive. It's almost scary. We explain it as " he's . "

My son Meows. =)

He also dances to music, has since he was 4 months or so and tries to

beat a drum beat with the music.

At one he is now waving back at me two different ways and developing his

on sign language for things like he's hungry!

Doug and I are going to start teaching him sign language so he can

communicate better, he gets a kick out of it.

I think the vax mess up a lot of development for kids and I'm glad my

son has been spared! Now if he'd just grow some hair! =)

Okay, it's beginning to make sense. Are they copying their " brother and sister "

which is why we shouldn't assume kids are these ways because of vaccination or

unvaccination....EVERY baby, child, toddler, etc...... is different and to say

they look or are a certain way because of vaccines or not is unfair. This is why

this topic bothers me so....... " the look " ....jsut horrible!

How funny, I was just sharing today with someone about how maybe some

kids don't talk because sometimes we are so intune with what they

need that we understand them etc.

Not saying that others aren't. It's just that I've noticed that some

kids don't seem the need to talk until later. While other kids are

more vocal and even like to hear themselves babble.

My children even though they don't talk until later do understand

very well. To well I think sometimes LOL>

I was shocked when at one 6 month appointment the Ped asked if my

child was speaking yet? I thought he was joking. He wasn't. Just

checking he said because some start talking early.
