  • Weezl - that sounds much better than what I remember of what you said before (IYKWIM!). His comprehension sounds good - which I would guess means that the words will come in time. I thought you were saying that he didn't know the words for things before. If he recognises the words but can't say them then I wouldn't worry about that.

    One day he will just spit out a sentence and from that moment you will never shut him up!!

    Does he babble at all? Or is he just quite quiet? Benjamin never shuts up and waffles on in baby talk all the time - he was bound to hit on some words sooner or later - god only knows where he gets his motor-mouth from ;):D

    Weezl, that sounds great. Chris didn't even try. He never even pointed.

    Forgot what else I was going to say...

    noticed on FB that your stairs are done :)

    Are they truly rude or just a little saucy?

    Hello MFD,

    Thanks loads for thinking of us :)

    DH and I have been trying all those strategies, and have modified/changed a few as I've been doing extra reading on the subject (can say more about that if anyone would like?)

    Still the same number of words from Fergie, 'daddy' 'yeah' and 'no'.

    These still aren't being used with the right thing/concept :(

    But I know his comprehension is good. I have been watching what he understands now and I think it's possibly slightly higher than I thought.

    I've also realised he has a really good memory for songs/tunes.

    If I 'lah' the tune that one of his toys make, or his singing thomas book, he goes straight to that toy and brings it over.

    He understands things like 'where's the ball/book/beatle/car etc'

    and if I say: 'awwww kessie sad. Shall we give him his dummy?' he'll go and find kessies dummy and attempt to insert it into kessies mouth, usually sideways.

    Is any of this sounding good/promising?

    Lots of love to you and the gingerman, and to all my parent club friends.

    SS can you do the penultimate weekend in Aug at the IWM?

    Hugs for caz and buttons

    Gentle hugs for kristal, and how is mel doing?[/FONT]

    Hi Weezl....I would love you to say more about what you have been researching.

    Everything you have said about comprehension sounds exactly like K, but You little angel has 3 more words than K has....he won't speak a single word! I am not really worried, but it would be nice if he would at least try:cool:

    I know he understands everything we say and I am constantly doing the steps that you outlined in your past post, like I said, i had been doing most of them already. K just seems to like shouting, squealing and screeching at everything/everyone:o

    p.s Mel is doing fine:D

    if you could tell me the nearest train stations etc ill have a look at prices!

    Abis arm is absolutly fine it seems to be something that happens to her but have been told she will grow out of it, they asked if i would like to see how to put it back but im a wimp LOL! thanks for asking!

    Weezl i find that Charlie picks up words quicker by singing? i make up silly songs and even the cbeebies channel is very good with the songs etc! If Fergie is understanding then i think that is the biggest problem overcome and that it will just take time, before you know it you will be asking him to be quiet :D

    i have just done something very naughty but it has made me feel better! cant post as i think there are eyes watching but im here giggling to myself :D

    Hi everyone....

    MFD..glad you had such a good weekend,

    Mel...i was shocked to read about your hassle with the xbox sub...i think id have been as angry as you but its hard to understand if he actually knew what he was doing. Im not sure i would have done at that age...tho im sure he does now!!

    Weezl...Rose doesnt say too many words either. Hiya, mama,dada, nana and ta i think at the moment. She babbles quite alot so im sure it will follow but i would be interested to hear how you're getting on and maybe follow your advice. Im sure my other 2 were about the same at this age x
