I think the screen time is what has caused my child to have a delay. Not quite 2 but has only said 15 words. I have already taken steps to limit screen time & start interacting more with flash cards, books, puzzles etc.
Gosh that was me, my son cried right away thou. But I have labor for 22hrs, and ended up with a c section. He is 2 now. But his pediatrician is saying he needs to be evaluated for autism. I said NO.
Hello, you can email me on; info@speechtherapytotos.com, and provide me with more information about where your son is at with his development so that I can point you towards the right direction.
I am a neonatal nusrse and an unlucky mom having a 2.5 year daughter with birth trauma from vaccum delivery ..her apgar was good though her cord blood gas showing hypoxia. I am eagerly waiting to hear mummy , her motor developments were fine. Now they are considering her autism bcz of associated behaviour issues like toe walking . Anybody could help me with ur experience of such cases , i mean the outcome or at which age approximately ? I am really going through a hard time , need help very badly frnds .
@@AuzomeLives ohhh so sorry to hear about your baby's birth truma. I am eagerly waiting to hear mummy too. My son is 2.5yrs old now. Says dada, baba, good motor skills too. But he toe walls as well. Sometimes will not respond to his name, he will look at your and ignore you. We are doing speech therapy but its via zoom. Which doesn't work in my own option. Also my son doesn't imitate words. His pediatrician wants me to do an autistic testing. But I refused, I will wait till he is 3, because he will start pre school, that will help him with one on one speech therapy.
My son was born just a few weeks early but he was born with cord around his neck. He didn’t immediately cry due to this and even after cord removed he didn’t cry immediately. He was talking a lot baby talk and started with words but not so much. A little after 1 and using leap frog tablets, flash cards, reading aloud with him he was watching programs like blues clues, and RU-vid kids. He’s not in daycare full time. He only sings a lot he sings Dinosaurs I’ve heard him say that and he says stop a lot. But only recently says momma. I think his speech has regressed but wasn’t as it should have been before much screen time either. He points, use hand gestures and facial expressions, he understands what we’re saying, he responds to let me know he understands just not speaking, grunts a lot and has a lot of emotions.
I'm actually in the same exact boat! My kid showed signs of speech at 1 then kinds stopped and stopped saying single words other than mama and Dada. I though it was a heavy metal build up and started slowly and gently detoxing and I also incorporated a good omega 3 and 6 with dha and eph along with a aspire nutrition bio heal prebiotic. That with really working with him had made a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge difference. I can say almost every letter of the alphabet and the sound it makes but can make words quite yet
Born with it wrapped 2 times and pushing for just under 3 hours...I feel may have had some sort of issue. He knows more sign language than me though thanks to circle time with Sarah sunshine!
I have a 2 yr old that was born at 26 weeks who is now 27 months and only has 3 words we’ve heard. Only 1 consistently and that’s Dada. She did have global delays that were still pretty normal for her adjusted age (sitting up at 9.5 months, crawling at 13 months, pulling up at 14 months and walking at 17 months). She imitates sounds with perfect tone and cadence but through humming. She doesn’t open her mouth too much. We are in speech therapy but due to COVID we’ve had to do it via Zoom which isn’t that easy to do. It’s hard to get her to sit still for an hour in her high chair or at her table. It’s so frustrating seeing other children younger than her talking. Is this common?
It sounds like you have had quite the journey! Well done for growing your baby to this point seeing how preterm she was born! I have a couple of thoughts...first, it's great that she is having speech therapy, and while teletherapy may not work so well for toddlers, you can choose to understand what the targets are and implement them across the day. Are you able to have a discussion with your daughter's speech therapist about some of the things you could do every day to move your daughter's communication along. Second, has your daughter had a hearing evaluation? If not, do have her inner ear and middle ear tested. There are various tests for the inner ear, which can be recommended based on her status (level of attention, etc). See this _video_ for more about hearing assessments and their importance. Now, it's great that your daughter is imitating the intonation for sounds, however, this in itself is a little concerning, but paired with the fact that you said she doesn't open her mouth too much, I feel her mouth may hold some answers for why she is delayed in her speech/language skills. I would want to know about her other oral motor skills such as what texture of foods she eats, whether she chews or if there are foods she cannot stand. Also, how are other motor skills eg. running, self-feeding? Is she clumsy? Depending on how you respond to the questions above, you may be able to rule in/out the possibility of your daughter having a condition known as dyspraxia, also known as verbal dyspraxia or childhood apraxia of speech. Obviously, I cannot disgnose just from a description, so use this information to gather more information and push for a re-assessment should you feel it's indicated from what you gather. If I can support you in any way, do not hesitate to reach out.
I understand this. Same thing happening with me and I'm getting frustrated and feels like crying. My son is 2.2 years. He understands everything and communicates well, immitates except not talking. Hardly says few words.
Hello! I am in a very similar situation. My daughter who just turned two this month (January 5, 2022) she was also born at just 26 weeks and had the same timeframe for her milestones as yours, mine can say words that you ask her to say but only single syllables, and doesn’t say words without being asked to very much at all. I’m just curious since your daughter is now 3 how is she doing now with her speech ? I’m getting mine assessed tomorrow actually for speech therapy and OT.
@@SpeechTherapyTotos pls my son is 2.2yrs, doesn't say mama or dada. Words that comes from his mouth is only 'a' sounds. Born at 39 weeks, c/s no trauma. He plays with other children normally without talking, but he hears. Any solution pls. Desperate mom
My daughter just turned 2 last month. She isn’t saying that many words. She knows all her body parts and animal noises. But she won’t say actual words.
From my experience, children with a speech and language delay are often overexposed to screens (Smartphones, TVs) and are under-stimulated. I have an online course that can inform and educate you about what you can start to do from home to help your son with his speech and language skills. Check out the course here- speechtherapytotos.com/ltb-module-1-free
My son did very well in all other developmental skills. Sitting up by 6 months, crawling at 8 months. Walking at 10 months, his eyes were wide open right after birth, he was very determined to see but talking... No and I know for a fact he pays attention to what he wants. He is responding to his name more normally now but he's 21 months and I have to find the perfect and appropriate tone when calling his name or he wont respond. I just knew he would be talking by now. But I was given pitocin then rushed into c section surgery. He had a delayed cry and he was puffy.
your comment is 8 months old now. Just curious how is your son doing now? I have a son thats just a few short of 2 years old now. He talks nothing at all just makes sounds responds to his name like 6/7 times out of 10 maybe. Im pretty sure he doesnt have autism because he can copy what i do He can play with with me when he wants to. He can hand me a toy to play with him. Ive asked him on multiple occasions to put lids in the cabinet/things in the trash and he can comply with out problem what feels like it. But this whole speech thing kind of worries me. my son was also relatively quick to crawl/walk etc and when he was born it was a prolonged birth, suction cup thingy and ending in c-section. So im suuuper curious how it went for your son
@@Kerbros100 He's doing very well. One thing I noticed was I wasn't looking in his eyes when I was teaching him something or mean what I say. I had to engage with him more intensely, He's very active and extremely smart. Hes almost 2 1/2 he knows all his colors, 1-10 and almost all his letters, he's identifying objects when he's I engage him well. Still doesn't like to say his name but responds to it normally except he's stubborn sometimes. That's just his personality. He's the best.
@@Kerbros100 oh yeah and talk to him seeking an answer seriously. But 9 times out of ten especially in the beginning you won't get an answer but he knows you wanted an answer. My son is starting to converse.
The screen time is a very important factor for children with delayed speech. Children under 5 should not have screen time, but more one on one interactions with the parents and others so they can learn speech.
Thats very interesting information. Thank u!! I had a long labour around 30 hours n ended up having emergency c section but my baby cried straight away. He is 20 month old and no words yet but his receptive language is good

My daughter resently turned 2 & she doesn’t say any sentences, she knows colors/animal, she says them & also mommy & daddy but shee has never said a 3/4 word sentence
My little girl is 2 years and 3 months. She doesn't say anything other than mama or dada. She makes lots of sounds which we recognise but that's only because we know what she means. My birth was fine other than I had a hemorrhage straight after she was born. When she was 2 months old she developed a bad virus and needed to spend 2 weeks in hospital on oxygen and was tube fed. I then developed severe postnatal anxiety and depression and was taking into a mother and baby unit when my baby was a 3 months old. I had a lot of problems bonding with her. I keep blaming myself for her delay. She wasn't delayed with any other milestones other than smiling.
I have a son thats 3 years old he says mama and dada but other than that he mumbles and babbles his words. Anytime he wants something too drink or eat he doesn’t uses his words he just come grab one of our hands and show us or hand us a cup with out saying the words. He can comprehend and understand well and is very playful and friendly gets along with other kids he loves spiderman and being on his tablet when i was in school i had a speech impediment so maybe my son has the same thing
My son is going on 2 soon and he doesn’t say much. Dada and eat are the main words. I think it may be to much screen time. He refuses to uses a silverware, he only eats what he can grab.
My daughter 3 years old but she doesn't speek ...at the age of 15 month she start to bubbling. .dada baba..just two word now she speaks also two word.. baba ..dada.she has a hearing prolem..its found when she was 2year old.now she has a hearing aid..so i want to know that, can my daughter speak?Her speech therapy is running. I am in very tension. .plzz give me answer
My 21 month son came out not breathing. He scored bad the first time and the second time was good when they checked the scores again. He’s reached all milestones and understands so much. He just can’t talk really. He says mama, dadda, Dj, Che Che for milk, uh oh, shoe, 3 when counting to three, and maybe a few more. That’s it. What does the delay mean really since it was a traumatic birth? Is that a sign of Brain damage? Or will he overcome this delay and be fine? He understand no and points to things and communicates great, it’s just limited words still at 21 months.
My son is a couple of months away from being 2.. hes done all his milestones except speech.. i know he hears fine and understands because i ll ask him to bring me something or do something and he ll do it (most of the time). Ill even whisper "get me some chips" from across the room and he goes to the pantry and brings me some.... but he just does t care for practicing speech.. sometimes i feel like im too intuitive with him (i ll anticipate his need before he asks) .. should i back off and wait for him to come to me? Ive tried but he just cries or pulls me towards the thing he wants me to do (takes me to the water cooler for water, takes me to the door to go outside, points at the tv for cartoons, etc)
Hallo, Oh absolutely do back off and expect your son to use his words. If you're preemptying a lot of his needs, he has little need to communicate. Try putting things out of his reach, but within visible sight, so consider putting his toys in a see-through container, but one that requires him to seek assistance to open it so that each time he wants something, he has to take you to it, and when this happens you'll be getting an opportunity to model language to him. The truth is, there are many teaching opportunities in the everyday interactions moments parents have with their children only we don't tend to see them as such. I could honestly go on about all the ways you could take advantage of these opportunities or the techniques to use to encourage your child to talk, however, you may want to check my online course for parents, which does precisely that...(speechtherapytotos.com/late-talkers-bootcamp) Try the sample modules (speechtherapytotos.com/3-part-video-series) for some easy to apply pointers and decide thereafter if the full course is something you would like to get to help grow your son's language skills. Wishing him the best. Lorna PS: I apologise for taking a while to respond
Hello? My daughter is 2 yrs and she only calls everything papa... Her communication is through holding our hands,if she wants anything she will hold you hand to that place, Kindly help awarried mum,what should I do.... Another thing,she doesn't play with her friends,she is on her own even though you take her to other kids
OMG I hope you read this. My son was born with a runny nose and small case of jaundice. He is 20 months now and has been sick with a cold or runny nose and now ear infections since birth basically. He has reach all of his milestones thus far except speech. He says Dada Mama Baba and thats about it. When he tries to repeat something its like a slurred stutter almost(diiiiddidi). I'm so scared at this point. I have 3 boys my oldest from a previous relationship is autistic. Hes aware when he wants to be. Its so frustrating.
Child turned 2, no talk either. But has conversations in baby responses. I hate when relatives try and compare as to why my kid isn't talking yet and somehow they're kids were having full blown conversations at his age. Like in narrative voices I guess
Hello, from my experience, children who are delayed in talking are often overexposed to screens and under-stimulated. Is your son exposed to screens? How old is he?
@@SpeechTherapyTotos yes he watches a lot of TV his 18 months. He knows how to show you what he wants. He would grab me towards what he wants. He knows how to manipulate me to picking him when he gets upset. When he watches TV he get excited with some characters and starts dancing and pointing to them. But recently the TV stays off for the most part of the time 😖. Should I be worried?
@@thedaudakids4622 Hello, please note that a child who is below the age of 2 yrs should not be exposed to any screens at all.

My baby is 23months old he do not speack nothing yet .. from this month he only says papa and Eat 2 words only sometimes but .. im so worried what can i do 😞😞
Hi.. My son is 17 months old and not talking yet.. But responds my phrases .. Operating phones and picking his fav rhymes waving byes... Brushing.. Combing hair everything but not talking.. Do i have to worry?
My son was walking by 9 months and used to say banana, dada, mamma, auntie, yea, yay, and two… now he is 23 months old and doesn’t say ANY WORDS but dada, yea, and momma but only says mamma when he is emotional and won’t say it when asked… he understand and just get angry when trying to encourage him to talk he sometimes says bye and said I love you once please help should I see a therapist or do you think I should dedicate a few hours a day to strictly talk or is that too much?
So my daughter has just turned 20months, she has reached all other milestones but her speech is very much delayed, she can say mumma & dada, grandad & her favourite thing to say whilst pointing at things is "what's that". Other then those things she doesn't say anything else, is there any way I could really help encourage her to speak, I try reading books but she's not interested and when she asks me "what's that?" I'll tell her and she doesn't respond back to me.
Just continue responding to her "what's that?" questions with the names of the things she's asking about. I'm sure it sounds like you've done everything, but I can assure you that there are many opportunities to encourage her language skills that you may not be focusing on. Singing, bath-time, on the mat play sessions, eating time, during car rides, etc. These present a fraction of all the opportunities you have to stimulate or "model" language to your daughter. As I get this question a lot, I made a course for parents wishing to grow their late talker's language, which you can follow this link - speechtherapytotos.com/3-part-video-series- to get a snippet of it, which if you find useful, you can consider purchasing the full course. I recommend Late-Talker's Bootcamp 2.0. I wish I could share all the tips here; it's just not possible. For more ideas check out the other videos in this channel All the best ma!
Thanks so much for this info. I was up all night watching your videos, which help tremendously.

I would love to email you to pick your brain as to what else I can do at home with her. She is in the process of being evaluated for EI.
Hello Tiffany, thank you for reaching out. You can email me on: info@speechtherapytotos.com and we can arrange to have a online consultation for me to evaluate your child. Looking forward to hearing from you!
What happens when my son is 2 years and 5 months and he doesn't speak only says "no" and uses nasal sounds to communicate... I think one issue could be my wife speaks Spanish to him and me just in English (he understands what we say in both languages) ... My wife spends more time with him could it also be that she (we) didn't pressure him to speak when he begins with the nasal sounds and pointing we give him what he wants... Thanks in advance
@@eltigrearroyo7 yes, tell him what he should say “I want cookies please.” One day he will say it by himself but need to give him an example. I also heard that kids that are sponken two languages at the same time would be expressive language delayed...it happened to my son who is five and just started speaking in sentences.🤷🏻♀️

He...he...thank you for your honesty! It can be frustrating...I mean how hard is it to just say "mama", right? Well, for some children, this seemingly easy skill, isn't so easy. For children for whom talking doesn't come as naturally, parents must break down the steps for them, but most parents are too skilled in talking that they themselves forgot the steps a child goes through to learn how to talk. They focus on things that come 5 steps ahead, but wonder why their efforts are not bearing fruit. Like teaching the alphabet, colours, counting, etc. are activities that won't grow a late talker's language. Because there could be too many reasons for your daughter not talking, I suggest you go through my RU-vid channel (Speech Therapy Totos) for some ideas you can implement in a bid to making the home environment more conducive to her learning how to talk. And if you require more support, check out my course for parents in the same situation as you- speechtherapytotos.com/late-talkers-bootcamp
Speech Therapy Totos Thank you. I’ll give that a try. Right now I’m reducing her screentime and really focusing on talking to her more and re-introducing her to books as well. I’ll try everything I could since speech therapy doesn’t come cheap. Godbless! ♥️
@@annarenomeronOverexposure to screens is the number cause of speech delay in toddlers. A child below 2 years should not be exposed to screens at at all. And a child who is 2 years old and above should be allowed only an hour of screen-time a day.
My nephew is 2 years old isn’t talking yet either. He understands words but does not say them. If he does say anything, it is one word like Eattt. He tries to talk but everything is slurred and you can tell he gets frustrated when we don’t know what he is saying. His motor skills are fine. He runs and points at what he wants.
Hallo, and thank you for the inquiry. Your concern for your cousin is also endearing. From the very little information you have provided, your nephew may be presenting with both a speech issue as well as a language issue. This video here- ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-66znNyWhPI0.html- makes a distinction between 'speech' and 'language'. You mentioned that his words are slurred. Is that an accurate description of the nature of the errors you've noticed? Slurring of speech would be indicative of muscle weakness, and is markedly different from just mispronounciations that don't have a muscle component like omissions, deletions of sounds, etc. In order to be able to accurately diagnose the specific etiology for his difficulties, I would also need to know how much he is understanding. Is he for example able to follow complex instructions? I highly suggest that you recommend to your nephew's parents to get his speech and language skills evaluated, as at his age, speech therapy can help mitigate these issues, failure to which could lead to persistent learning and social difficulties. Warmly.Lorna

@@lillym2488 my son is 2.9 yr old and he has a lot of improvement now. He understands many words and always respond/react to my words. The only thing is he speaks gibberish 😂. But my friends say boys speak late some after 3 & 4yr. My son has a receptive understanding, so now I have less concerns. What I did:- 1. Enrolled him in a daycare for half day time. This has improved his social skills, and behavior. He does some activities there. 2. Once he comes back I play with him for half an hour daily. So he is very good in playing toddler puzzles games, block building, cards etc. 3. We talk with him a lot. 4. Tv only while breakfast & dinner for 15 min. each. Hope this helps you.

The short answer is it could in some extreme cases but for a majority of children, their food or diet should not impact on their ability to develop timely language skills. There have been studies that have uncovered that certain food intolerances might interfere with a child's behaviour i.e. their ability to attend consistently which in turn could impact on their ability to learn language.
Hi, my.son is 25 months and understands two.languages but doesnt say anything.apart.from maybe 15 words. he is always watching TV which we have stopped. what can.i.do?i
how is your son now? i have twin boys that are raised in a bilingual environment. 21 months, and speaks about 10-15 single words but understands most of what we say in both languages.
My son is going very well in all the milstones from his birth but now only problem in speaking .. we are speaking 2,3 languages in home maybe this could be the main reason. 😞
Hello, the belief that speaking different languages in a home causes delayed speech in children is a myth. Your son's delay in speech may be due to other factors e.g overexposure to screens, under-stimulation, etc.
@@SpeechTherapyTotos yeah may be because its just my own thinking but we are not speaking with him constantly and now more time he busy in watching cartoons and poems on RU-vid 😑

Omdaizz I just stumbled upon your video. My daughter is really delayed in speech. She has had a global delay to say I’m crawling, walking but not pulling self up. She watches cartoons quite a bit I’ll say about 10hours in a week). Could you please reach out to me on how to help her please? Could you do a video assessment? This video was very informative, she literally had running nose from when she started nursery at 12month to about 18month. Since then it’s been on and off. She has had a few viral infections. At some point she kept holding on to her ear. Could you offer us some help please? Thank you.
Hey Nina, thank you for your inquiry. Where are you based? If you are based in Nairobi, Kenya. You are welcome to bring your daughter in for assessment. But if not, I could assess her online (teletherapy) via Skype. Kindly email me on: info@speechtherapytotos.com.
Good afternoon. Can you send me email. I’m looking out for Health. My 2 year old girl is not talking. Not even saying word. And I’m really confused and concerned about her development. I’m hoping it no really bad. And she will say word and talks. Ruth
