What words did your 14 month old say?

McKayla says Mamma. Use to say Daddy now it is Dadda again. Sometimes say Pappa. Say tree. Said for a whole day purple.

It seems she will learn a word use it for the whole day and then not say it for a few weeks. She says hello and tatta. And say light sometimes.

Just wondering if she is developing fine in this regard.

Well Zaara is 15 month old today and she says Mama, Papa, Nana (G/Dad), Baby or Babba, ball, touch, fish, ta (For thanks), NO....few days ago said bubbles but hasnt said it since. Also says OH OH, Tata, Hi, Tookie (for when we play pic a boo).

She tries to sing...Row Row (foloowed by the hand movements)... and we sing along with her row row row your boat!!

To be honest I dont know if that is normal. I am a S/African lady at work whos g/daughter is 17 months old and only says Mama and Papa.

I think each child is different and will do things at their own time! Dont worry...if she is learning new words and is saying them she is fine!!

I know what you mean re the secret language Kim....the teachers at Zaara's kindy have told me that she has a friend there and they sit and talk to each other and actually do things using their own language...so its not all ga ga goo goo!!

It sounds like she is doing fine I have a little chatterbox who was talking from 10 months, but think that is a rareity

My son said his first words at around 6 months old and was stringing sentences together at 12 months old BUT! a few months ago it got to a point when we couldnt even understand anything he was saying!! at almost 3 years old!! he use to be so clear and not even his parents (DH or I) could understand so we did a bit of research and found that most kids who start talking early tend to regress a year or so down the track!! due to too many things going on in their head to concentrate on talking (whereas i new talker - talking IS what they are concentrating on) so now a few months later his speech is back to normal but it was weird and we had alot of people asking us why he hadnt started talking yet!!

My nephew didnt start talking until he was around 15 months and he was 3.5 before we could understand his sentences with out trouble.

sounds like mckayla's doing fine, mikey's not saying too much yet but i'm really not worried. he says tata (bye), up, ta, dada, mama (but never to me ), domi (our dog), woof woof and cat, but that's pretty much it.

i really wouldn't worry about it, like everyone else is saying, every baby is different.
