Guest guest Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 After reading all of this I am concerned about Kaitlin's speech! She is 4 months old and only goes " aaahaaahaahahah, " in different tones. The doctor said that was okay b/c all babies communicate differently and that was her way of cooing. Is this normal or should I be concerned? Freeman Kaitlin Freeman 3/9/04 LCF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 Isabella didn't talk much either until she turned one and now she says sentances and alot of words. It is normal. Don't be to concerned. They will talk in time. My best friends little boy is 20 months old and only says 3 words. I think children will talk when they are ready. When she does start talking she will talk your ear off. Best of luck (Isabella's mommy 10-12-02 bilateral cf) > After reading all of this I am concerned about Kaitlin's speech!

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 I have been having similar concerns about my 5 month old. All she does is blow bubbles when she is mad and a high pitched screech when she is happy. She goes back for her 6 month check up at the beginning of next month, I was going to ask the doctor about it then. I think she should be doing some babbling by now. It was suggested to me, by a friend who has a child with speech problems, to let her touch my face when I talk to her and repeat back to her what she does to me, so I have been doing that and just giving it sometime. HTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 as soon as you said blowing bubbles when she is mad and screeching when she is happy, I had to laugh b/c that is the same thing that Kaitlin does. Her screech is " aaaahaahahah. " Freeman Kaitlin Freeman 3/9/04 LCF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 I have two little boys and they made very few noises at 6 month. In fact next to none. I wouldn't worry about it! Mom to Ethan Left Club foot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 At 4 months no-one is expecting any 'speech' I wouldn't have thought. They don't start speaking much until around 18 months. Some start earlier of course each child is an individual.... My son is 15 months and understands what I am saying but doesn't say too much himself. He is just taking it all in.. oh yes and he knows if he points to everything his sisters just give it to him anyway -- Re: Speech concerns. At only 4 months I wouldn't panic. s. Speech concerns.
