    Tegan, I'm probably not the best person to answer as all of my babies have been quiet early to talk and have a huge vocabulary by the time they are 2.

    Do you go to a MCHN centre ?? Perhaps you can ask them what they think. But I would be guessing that they would suggest leaving Lily for another 12 months or so and having her assessed then????

    Remember that every baby delelops differently and at their own rates. Lily could be too busy learning other skills to worry about learnign new words. One day she could wake up and talk your ears off

    Sorry Nat was typing as you posted. I will say though, that at nearly 20 months Tehya is pretty much inline with the 24 months list. But with so many people talking around here it's no wonder why.
