Talking

[Lou]

Hey

How you all doing? Long time no speak and all that! We are fine. I just popped in to say hi and thought I'd take the opportunity to ask you all about talking. Isaac has started to say a few words, mum, dad, airplane, more, yes etc but he isn't really consistent. He said airplane twice in one day but hasn't said it since!

How are your bubbys getting on with saying words and speaking?

hiya lou

Brody is not very consistent either, he just seems to make a lot of "Uhhh UUHHHH" noises when he wants something. For example in the bath he wants the bubbles, every bath time I try and get him to say it but he won't, he just goes "Uhhhhh UUUUH" and points at them until eventually I give in and just get them for him.

Apart from that he can say Mommy, Daddy, cat, Nanna, tractor (tacta!) and a few other words, but he doesn't seem too keen to say much else.

Eloise say's Hiya (favourite word) and occasionally dada although it's generally dadadadadadadadadadada
She can say nana but she has no idea what any of the words mean

Fiona - I wouldn't worry - my friend has a daughter who was about a premature as Bradley and she didn't start speaking or anything till past 2.

Aimee babbles a lot of nonsence most of the times but she can say the odd word, eg plane, dummy, baba, ball all the usual ones. Shes getting better though.

elise will babble a few words but mainly points to the things she wants so im trying 2 learn her what they are instead of giving in to her
she can say mama, dada, keykey (Kiyanna) and nana.. she can say her own name aswel but says leasy lol

Sounds fine, ella has always been a chatterbox, for the last 9 months it has been like speaking to another adult, at just over 2 her stringing 5 words together sounds great
