Hey everyone. Glad I found this group. I have a 2 yo son. He was

always a quiet baby, we just thought we lucked out. At around 18

months he began to try to say daddy (daeeeee), up (pah) and hi

(heeee). Shortly after he lost these words. He has also said bubble

one time, and for about a week he said " arrrrrr " for car. He currently

says uh-oh. He still just makes vowel sounds. He has been making

sounds where words go occasionally when asked a question or when trying

to get his needs met. YOu can tell he is thinking of the word, but the

wrong word comes out. He becan ST at 23 months. The SLP didnt like him

using signs, which we had just started, so we quit. She thought

apraxia. We had an EI eval at 24 months. The SLP also told us to keep

apraxia in mind. We have been with our current SLP for about 2 months

now. She thinks he definately has apraxia. We have an appt with a

developmental pedi next week. He is on track or above every other area

in development. He is currently in therapy twice a week. We also do

alot of play therapy at home, such as whistles, bubbles, making faces,

ect. To be blunt, this disorder sucks, and no one outside of my

husband and the SLP seems to understand " in real life " Hoping to get

some support...

Thanks!
