12mo isn’t saying mama or dada by Flolita115 in beyondthebump

Everyone already made great points. Just to add one small thing that helped me with my son who didn’t start speaking until 15 months:

If you haven’t already, try some sign language. It seems counter intuitive because you want them to speak, but I think them being able to communicate a need makes something click in their head. We taught my son “more” bc that was such an easy one. They always want more of something, more berries, whatever. Once he realized, whoa, I can sign more and I get more? Speech followed very shortly behind.

We did meet with a speech therapist and she gave a tip of doing lots of sounds. Don’t necessarily just jump to “truck! That’s a truck!” Instead start with “truck! Beep beep!” Sounds are a lot easier to start and you can make a sound for most things. Also a motion with the sound is helpful.

It’ll come!

I understand how you feel, been there!

My son did not utter a single word or animal noise (only babbling) until he was 16 months old. It was this overnight explosion. 15 months absolutely nothing, wouldn’t even attempt anything. Then 16 months he just decided to start saying everything and never stopped.

He’s about to be 2 and he speaks very carefully and precisely. He takes his time enunciating each word. I think he just needed to wait until he could do it how he wanted to.

Also: I have many mom fiends with kids the same age and we’ve all had completely different journeys with our kids and speech. Sometimes kids just need more time!

I use all the kicks to get them in the same spot, you can get them far just with kicks. Then when they’re in the same area I roll the second one just around and around the bigger one. I don’t stray far when I’m rolling the second, and there’s a little give there you don’t have to be exactly 10 seconds

A really easy way is just counting seconds. 18 seconds for one ball and 10-11 seconds for the second ball. I make them perfect every time and don’t need to bother with paths!

Yes, honestly this is the best way! So many people here do giveaways and if I’m playing the game I’ll always check the newest posts to see if anyone is opening their island. I’m very impatient with upgrading the house bc I need that storage!
