    Unhappy 2 year olds speech ,should i be worried

    ds is 2 this month and was wondering how developed his speech should be ..

    a nurse was filling out a form for us and nixon was jabbering away .. there was a section on the form about speaking english and i made a joke about how nixon can speak jibberish but not english .. she looked at me then at nix and fired a heap of questions at me ... and then said , bring him back next month and we'll get a referrall to a speech therapist .. WT

    he can say heaps of words but he cant say them properly , the only ones he can say clearly are : mummy , daddy and NO !!

    but the rest are all muddled , only dh and i can really understand .. and i have never heard him put 2 words together .., its almost like he just cant say many words , not from lack of trying, but he just cant seem to pronounce things right ...kwim


    so my question is how much does you toddler speak and how clearly , and should i be worried ...
