    Speech Development

    Can anyone tell me when their LO's started saying 3 syllable words? Can't find what I'm looking for online anywhere!
    Thanks in advance!

    Not long after age two. She had about six words until two and within a month was saying sentences. Hope that helps.

    Ooh I can't remember!! DS was really early I know that - he's always had excellent speech for his age... and Kelti is saying 3 syllable stuff now and constructs sentences and she's 2 in a few weeks..

    Check out this link here Language Development - baby, stages, meaning, Definition, Description, Common problems from what that says, they pick up the use of multi-syllable words between 2-3 years of age, but you could expect that some will pick it up earlier or later than that.
