Thanks for the info it sounds great.
I was starting to use baby sign but said to the SLT that it was probably better that I start with Makaton and then we keep it to one sign language - I haven't been given any info yet so hopefully next week at our next appointment.
Kaiha started saying mama at 6months but then for months on end nothing - then for a couple of days mama - then nothing again even his babbling went downhill. I haven't heard him say mama now for 2months and he doesn' use any other words at all although he has become more verbal. So hopefully Makaton will help
