Re: Hate to repeat a question but ....

Hi-

My daughter just turned 2 as well, and I have increased her Proefa's to 2

capsules each day. Over the past few weeks, she seems to actually be getting

some words! (good approximations, anyway) . She really had no words before

turning 2 in January. Just wanted to let you know.

Best of luck-

I believe my son was not ready to speak at age 2 years. He had many

nonverbal skills to learn before speech was possible. Maybe this is

your case?

Ian took EFAs for 8 months before our first big language burst at 22

months.

Can your son already blow out candles or blow bubbles? Does your

son kiss correctly? Can your son suck on straws yet? Can your son

imitate facial expressions?

If he can't do the above, then he may not be able to talk yet.

Remember the oral muscles have to work correctly first before they

can talk.

It can be very slow. I had one daughter that started talking at 3,

and the other one really didn't until 5 1/2. I've seen both ends of

the spectrum. The one that started talking at 3 did not have

trouble with blowing or sucking on straws or kissing, my other

daughter did.

Good luck!

Correction: first real language burst at 32 months! Not 22.
