I'm not quite where this lady is but my child turned 3 last week and I am seeing so much improvement in him. I would say my boy has better pronunciation but he's just saying loads of words and not sentences. O feel like we're finally coming out of it and leaving the dread and fear behind.
@@esrajuhani5429 hey! My son is talking up a storm! August of last year, words just exploded from him. The big difference is that he WANTED to try and WANTED to talk. Be patience! You got this momma!
hi everyone ,if anyone else needs to find out about how to talk to your child try Loctavan Teaching Toddler Strategy (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my colleague got great success with it.
My grandson is 2. He doesn't say any words. Screams when he wants something. He is in speech therapy, hearing test is scheduled in a few weeks, he hears fine, he understands us. Just not talking. He grunts, grunts grunts, just need him to grunt with his mouth open to get the words out. I have watched tons of videos. Gonna go get an electric toothbrush tomorrow. He is so smart. We have learned the "all done" sign language, and "more". So, there's that project and he loves the App "Speech Blubs" we just started this week. Gets mad and has a fit when I take the phone from him. He waves bye bye but says pa like a whisper. And loves Ready Steady Go (screams) not say go, but screams... so he understands. I know he screams to let us know what he wants needs, I will do anything and everything to help my sweet Munchkin. Anyway. Love the channel and so happy your little one has made so much progress. Love to all the Moms and Dads and Mimi's.
My son is 2 tomorrow. We speak to him in both Spanish and English, I see most kids online can say many two words phrases like red ball, yes mommy, etc. My son says one 2 word phrase and about 15 single words. He understands and can point to dozens of things but doesn’t verbalize them and his motor skills are excellent. He can eat with a spoon without making any mess for example. Based on your video I feel he’s ok, he’s excelling in most areas and speech should catch up soon. Using these tips will help.
I appreciate you touching on mom guilt. I have a 2 year old who is very chatty but isn’t forming as many words as we’d like so we’re getting an early start on working on it ✨
You have no idea how much comfort this gives me. We are 2.5 months away from his 3rd birthday and my sons communication won’t take off completely yet. Saying appropriate amount of words tho
😩 So much in here that I already know, I just haven't been good about. My son is nearly 2 and definitely not speaking much. We used to do library story times and play groups, but I've been bad about it the last year because I'm homeschooling my 12 yo stepdaughter now. Once the Rona passes, we'll definitely find a way to make those work again.
Its so hard to get out to do stuff right now because ya most is still closed. You are doing your best and love your son so thats all that matters Mama! Its so hard not too feel guilty as a Mom about not "doing enough" but language delay is in no way a parents fault. So much comes into play when it comes to a speech delay but it is all out of our control. Your son is so lucky to have a concerned and supportive parent like you!
Feeling very depressed as my child is not talking. He is not even at two words. I hope one day he will improve. Just strting the journey pandemic baby. Thank you this is very encouraging. My son is 2 years and 10 months.
Yes this was out over 4 years ago. Peer play I know could be so beneficial, but covid really changed a lot along with rsv being pretty serious. So it’s been hard. For myself I’m not very worried, but my baby is everything. My kiddos first sick was covid and he’s 19 months.
Thank you very much. I’m the grandmother and my grandson is 19 months old and weighed 3 pounds at birth, (NICU) and was delivered at eight months. So I am helping to find assistance with speech therapy and early intervention. He’s very active very tall and understands, but speech delay is one of the areas that is a concern. Hopefully he will be able to ti enroll in the great public school early intervention program in our community for his age for 2 years olds this coming fall. Thank you for the helpful information and tips.
I’m 21, and I don’t have any children yet, but I know that my boyfriend of seven years and I want children in the future so this video may be helpful if one of our children has any speech issues. Congrats on all the improvement with his speech delay :)
Thank you for sharing! My daughter just turned 3 and is speech delayed. She is intelligent but extremely frustrated. Covid has separated her from a normal interactive life and we are seeing the impact. Our other two children talked in complete sentences by age two so we have been very concerned with her progress. We work with her daily but really appreciate the tips, if you have anymore we would be very great full!
I’m in tears watching your video and listening to your son. I have a two year old with a speech delay and I’m just now looking for tips to help us. God bless you and your family. Thank you for sharing.
My toddler was a premie born at the beginning of the pandemic. She had to stay in the NICU for 3 months, so she only saw masks for her first few months. I'm very worried now, because she's not saying words..only babbling. Thank you SO much for the tips.
My daughter is turning 2 this coming March and she can speak less than 15 words😔 Her pedia has set an appointment for developmental doctor.Hopefully she will catch up soon like your kid🙂🙏
Hello my name is Tia. I first started to suspect a speech delay a little before my sons 2nd birthday (He will be 3 in May). I really enjoyed hearing your update for your son. I was saying 'amen' after each statement. Ill be sure to practice these tips. We start speech therapy this month.
@@wtfmategaming Hello~ He has been in speech therapy for a year now. He can form sentence and respond to questions. He improved so much. Sometimes he mumbles and talks encohetantly but we try and give him the words for what we think he is asking. He will then shake his head no or yes. I have learned alot from his speech theapist too. We noticed a huge jump in progress when he started preschool. We went though early intervention in Michigan and their recommendation was preschool in a special education program. His teacher said he has mastered everything she threw at him. I remember how I felt a year ago and I know the fear and worry. Get your child what ever help is available. If you believe in God pray over him. It will get better.
@@TiaRenee thank you! That’s great news, I am glad things improved! We are going to put him in some speech therapy, he says some words but not many. My worry is that he starts school in September 2023 and I don’t want him to go there not being able to communicate with his peers and getting ostracized or picked on. He seems to understand whatever we say to him or ask of him, he can count and has outstanding memory, just doesn’t talk. How long when you started speech therapy, did you notice improvements?
@@wtfmategaming My son was exactly like this. He understood but couldn't communicate. When he was evaluated, the speech therapist said how frustrating that must me. He had big tantrums which have also improved. I saw improvement in the first three months ( with repeating after me). It was when he was able to go in person that alot changed. We used cards so that he could request what he needed ( snack, water, puzzle, etc). When he started going in person didn't need them for much longer. When he started school he couldn't form sentence ( just words and a few phrases) and was still in a diaper. Because it was soecial education they accomodated him. He can use the potty now ( still working on poop) and even when he is emotional he can communicate what is wrong. I think it was a combination of school, speech therapy, working with him at home and getting older. The therapist taught me how to speak with him and build his eye contact and communication. There were some tought days but I made it my goal to spend 15 mins a day. Even if he was crying.
@@wtfmategaming Being around other children and adults is also great encouragment to talk. We tried to take him out often. And school helped alot with that.
Thank you a million times for sharing your story 💖. My son (31 months) has speech delay and says less than 20-words. The progress seems so slow, it’s discouraging :( . In three months he learned expressions like (oh-oh, yay, etc) and 2-3 new words only. I will appreciate if you can share a little more about your son’s progress. Thanks again for sharing your journey.
@@lillym2488 Hello! Yes, my son is doing so much better now. He is 3.5y and talking in full sentences in 2-languages! He is still delayed compared to his peers, but has hundred of words! He started talking more at 33 months. It was a very slow progress. Speech therapy helps.
Thank you so much for the tips ! I am a sister and my lil sister is turning 4yrs but still she can only say 1 word, she can't fully make a sentence yet. I am trying all my best to give her the best 🤗🤗
I’m from Brazil 🇧🇷 I’m raising my little one bilingual, he is 17 months. He is able to speak about 8 words, the most of then in english. I really loved this tips! Thank you very much xoxo
Thank you so much for this my son is going through the same thing he's also going to be 3 this november, and listening to your son and how he pronounces his words reminds me of my son this gives me hope
Overwhelmed mama over here 😫! My boy is 3 years old. I have made the first step to get him speech therapy now the second step is the hard work from my end. I am filled with doubts and worry that he may not talk, but I am going to positive.
My son turn 3 in May and he is not talking but is really smart and reacts to everything, tries to talk and know all his alphabet sounds but won't talk, I'm so worried, I don't know why he is not talking...
@@A.777-p8m my son is also smart he understands how to do things, he can say words but can’t form sentences. Another thing is that he does not like to talk when you ask him to, he chooses when to talk 😪
@@A.777-p8m but don’t worry too much he will pick up, take him to speech therapy, keep talking to him and place him in a childcare setting, when they are around other kids they pick up quick
Glad he is able to communicate better so he can feel less frustrated. What an improvement! Good job momma! That is so hard to drop saying “say.” I will definitely have to work on that. My daughter would pick the Kleenex 🤣thanks for sharing. I loooove stuff like this! Watched the whole thing! Anything to better our babies! 🙌🏻
You really had some great tips :)! I have twin boys who are turning 2 in March. They're starting to say more words, but one is more behind than the other so I will definitely try some of your tips out to see if it helps! I struggle with modeling words to them, and say a full sentence instead lol. Thanks so much for sharing!
Oh my God,i really need these tips,my son Sancho just turned 3 yrs and yet he can't say alot,just like 3-4 words,am certain this video is of advantage to us more so the point of peer play because he didn't have many mates to play with him.
Cohen is making great progress! You shared some great tips that will help other families working with their children who have a speech impediment or delay. Great topic to discuss and share your insight.
Thank you for the video. My son is 2 years 4 moths old. He's able to say about 30-50 words but only reverts to Mom, Momma, Dad, Daddy, Nana, Juju, Jayjay, papa and gaga but mainly reverts to mom and dad for everything and when asking questions such as "Where is the color green or where's the dinosaur?" And he always say right here, right there or out there. But I plan on using your tips to finally get him speaking a little more fluently and using more words regularly! Thanks!
I really need help my son is 2.4months old and he can't say more than 10words, we stay in a place where speech therapy isn't accessible. What do I do, I'm drained
My daughter has special needs and speech delay is one of them. However hers is more severe. She has a brain condition called Bilateral Perisylvian Polymicrogyhria. She is 11 but does not speak in words. We work with a speech therapist... she is going to use an iPad type communication device to Express her words through a choice of words.
My daughter just turned 20 months and she understands almost everything we say to her and responds but not with words hardly ever she will point and shake her head yes or no sometimes she says ya. She will only day a few words and hot all the time. They are mama, dada, ya, she was saying ducky but stopped for some reason idk how to help her
@@angalobankss7423 she's actually doing very well. We began occupational and speech therapy right after she turned 3 and in less than a year is exactly where she needs to be. She's almost 4 and everyday she shows us something new that she has learned. It's amazing to see the change. She can and does speak very often and now at level she should be, her vocabulary has exploded. Just working on a few letter sounds now and WH questions which over the last few weeks is getting down already.❤️🥰☺️ Thank you for asking God bless you!
@@AmeeraG242 thank you sooooo much for the reply!! God bless you , I’m so glad to hear she’s doing good. Hoping my little girl starts talking more soon🤞🏼
@@angalobankss7423 of course!🥰❤️ I hope our story is of some encouragement to you and your dear family. Trust in God, he is with you and your little girl ❤️.
Thank you so much for putting this together, it was so useful. I wrote them all down and will start using them right away. My son's Dr. appointment is in March and I will be asking them about checking my baby's motor skills. God bless you and you fam! 😊
Really glad to have found your channel. I don’t normally subscribe to a ton of them but you’ve got a ton of positive energy and just an overall comforting voice (if that isn’t the strangest compliment you’ve ever heard! lol) which helps a lot though as I don’t really have time to sit down and watch most of these random parenting tips / hacks, I just allow them to play in the background as I go about my mommy duties! however I did take the time out to watch the first half of this video simply because I enjoyed watching the clips you included of your little boy! what a total sweetie! my baby Braxton Levi will be turning 3 in September and your little guy reminds me of mine so much! it’s like he’s Braxton but with a larger vocabulary, lol! I feel certain I’ll be revisiting your library! 😘😜
My granddaughter will be 2 on January 20th and we recently realized she has an under-bite and she really doesn’t have very many words at this point and maybe even a little regression. She was saying I love you and she hasn’t said that in several months. I am Mimi and she says that with no problem. But she follows directions great in my opinion, like asking her to throw something away or go get your shoes.. we don’t have a well check until January. Should we try to get her a speech therapist now?
My son is 2 and half and he says maybe 5 words mostly just babbles. We were supposed to start speech therapy months ago but with Covid it hasn’t been possible. He’s also had a huge set back on his social skills now that he’s been home without any other child around since turning 2. I feel like im failing and i don’t know what to do to help my son. He has an autism evaluation by the end of September and im very nervous about it.
It's not your fault your doing the best your can, I feel like that sometimes too and start crying about it but then realize every kid is on there own timeline and lets celebrate the things they can do you're not alone I have a fresh 2yr old boy and just babbles mostly but is very smart and I know in time with help he will be talking my head off soon enough 🤛💪🥰hang in there
It is same with our 2 yr and 2 months old boy. We are worried that it might get worse in this covid and moreover winter is going to start, it is more tough. He can say very few words and he cannot combine two words. He was born with tongue tie, which was clipped out when he was 3 months old. Not sure if that is the reason, we are going to meet doctor soon. Will keep you posted.
I have the same problem my son is 2yr and 3months can't even say mama or dada. No words at all. I am so worried. All he can say ah, oh. Wa. he understood us when we say No or when we talk to him but he is not talking at all. He only takes our hand when he wants something.
My son is 2 today. He went to see his pediatrician today and was advised he is severely delayed. Will like to get him evaluated by specialist for autism. My heart is so heavy right now. I’m looking for therapists in my area. How is your son doing?
Hi 👋🏽 I’m From the Caribbean and I’m a first time mom my son is turning 2 in June & I think I’ve failed him I had no guidance onto how to raise him and his heavily delayed on talking he isn’t saying any words 😭😥 He would Watch Dave&Ava And Sing mostly all the nursery rhymes especially Old Mac Donald he Love the EIEIO & I taught him the Dance for Head shoulders knees and toe also The Wheels on the Bus he will Also Do these dances But he still has problems with many other things he don’t call mommy or daddy I would tell him juice or milk b4 giving him but he would just throw a tantrum if I go ahead and try to teach him mommy and daddy etc he will just look at me and smile
My child is three years and one month he hasn’t spoken he says mama and baba but he doesn’t really use it to call me, he just says it, but it’s really confusing because I don’t know if he has autism or not, there are these few times where it feels like he called me using it, but not always, also he doesn’t sit still when I want to hug him it’s like he wants me to be around so if I go to another room, he would follow me, but he would still stay somewhere where we have space in between, sometimes he does eye contact normally and sometimes he just refuses to look at you because He wants to play. Sometimes he laughs for no reason and jumps and runs. Sometimes he doesn’t express his pain so his brother could be literally beating him, and I wouldn’t hear him even scream. And sometimes he would scream at him and beat him to get away. And expresses pain normally saying booboo and coming to me to show me where it hurts. I noticed that when I get angry at his brother for beating him, he laughs. Seems like he likes it when his brother cries. I’m so confused in what should I do He hasn’t spoken or said any other word than mama and baba and “give me” in my language which is”iddi” Also sometimes he would cuddle with me and kiss me in a weird way. It’s not really kissing it’s like he’s trying to bite me, but with his lips instead of teeth, but I think that’s because I used to bite him like that because his cheeks are so cute and I want to bite him without hurting him, he only comes to me if he wants some thing for me he would drag me to the place and wait for me to give him the thing he doesn’t even point at things, I feel like I don’t understand him in a way where it really hurts me and makes me cry, I wish I could do something for him I took him to two doctors. One told me he might have autism. The other one told me he’s just fine and I need to wait and teach him words like it was just a speech delay. I’m so worried about him I was too terrified to admit it and label him with autism, but now I’m ready to just do anything to help him. It really breaks my heart since no one in my family was ever like this and they all already spoke under two years old..
My son is 4, and my son school director says she have a concern about his speech🥺 I thought he couldn’t pronounce a lot of words because he doesn’t have his front teeth. I’m so worried now
I’m struggling with this right now. My daughter is almost 2 and she’s only saying mama, dada and hi. She can understand things like if I ask her to get her shoes, or ask her to go to her crib, she’ll understand that. She’s just not talking tho. She used to be a jerk to say turkey but she’s not now
My son just turned two a month ago, he says dada maybe once a week. He does more grunting. Like when I say “ready, set,…” he’ll grunt the word “go!” He’s very smart I just think he doesn’t want to talk at his age. Anyone else have experience with the grunting?
My grandson is two but I knew things were going wrong because my daughter at this same age she was saying stuff and acting silly., like a two yr old. But her baby isn't speaking. He has been saying DaDa for over a yr though. Suggestions?
With my son he’s 18 months and they told me in one more month to get him in speech therapy. I try to get my son to say the words before I hand it to him and he just doesn’t want to idk what to do I get so frustrated .
Great video well done did you have any concern about a learning disability initially because of the speech delay along with the tantrums ? Having same issue she just turned two November
My grandson was talking before but now he's 2 and says a word and then I never hear it again. Mostly babbles, it's hard I don't know when he wants to eat or need a new diaper.
He had a speech delay around 2 but he was talking some what when he was att daycare sooo im confused then he stopped Mainly because he was repeating what he seen on tv( cartoon) but we are working on it.
mine is 2 years old but he is just following what im saying..if I will not say a thing he will not talk...he can recite colors shape alphabet numbers but words he just know little..I want to teach him to talk more and to talk in sentence..thanks
im here watching you for my son he is 2 and half yr old and he can counted he knows all the annimal name and sounds.color but he doesnt talk much.he wont tell me what he like when he is hungry he just go to the pantry and get his foods.but his on speech therapy now..and yes i do fucoz on him as well
Thank you for sharing this. Currently struggling with my little one. Would you mind sharing the names of the books in your video? There's 2 of them around time 3:15, one looks really good with little flaps. =)
This is not something I struggle with. I don't say "say". I usually just ask my daughter questions. "Who is that?" "What is that?" "Is that Dada?" "Do you hear/see the dog?" "Do you want to eat (and do the sign for eat)?" I usually let her work on an answer before moving on. She doesn't speak but I give her the chance to try to say the word and I can see her mentally working even if she doesn't say anything.
My son will be 2 in may so fortunately we’re starting therapy early was jus wondering does anyone think covid has affected kids born from 19 - to now due to not being able to be around peers and if so is there any info I should be looking at
hard part is my son got glued in his ear and his speech have lots of missing word for example "cow" but my son say "ow" just very basic... i fear my son got underlay issue.
Has your son had a hearing test? That is usually the first step with a speech therapist. My son is 4 now (he was 2 when I filmed this video) and he still drops sounds on those words you mentioned too. He has a hard time articulating C, F, and S sounds still. Its just lots of modelling and elongating the sounds so he can try and copy.
