Is it abnormal that Ella hasn't said her proper first word yet..? She's said Mama a few times before but I'm thinking she didn't know what it meant because she hasn't said it since. OH said he thought he heard her say Dada before but again, nothing since. She's a bit of a funny one, in that she babbles loads and copies sounds, but if I say 'Ella say Mama?' she will look at me strangely, her mouth will mime it but no sound comes out! She knows who we are, if we say 'Where's Mama?' or 'Where's Dada?' she will look at us.
She's quite intelligant (Well, in my opinion she is! Lol), for example this week she's learned to give kisses if you ask, and she picks her phone up off of her walker, hold it to her ear and babbles into it. And she points to all the sensory bits in her touchy feely books. She understands 'Clap' and has done since she was very young. Is she just slow in that part of her development?
