If your LO is good with speech I.e above average…so they still babble ?? Mine is good at communicating and will repeat everything we say…often times she does this long babble as if she is having a conversation with gestures and everything, I nod and give reactions but not sure of what she is saying. It’s not unusual right ?

My LB can talk really well and have proper little conversations with us, but yep sometimes he just chats/babbles to himself or us and I have no idea what he's saying!

My son speaks very well but still babbles, so definitely normal x
Cool ! Ya mine does that spl when she is playing

My daughter says 8+ word sentences, she speaks like a 3 year old. She still babbles and mumbles words x

My daughter talks in full sentences, and has great understanding and hasn’t babbled at all since she started to talk properly. My son was talking in complex sentences by 18 months and he never really babbled at all, he was saying hairdryer and ironing (random choice of words!) by 9 months.

Not unusual at all! Just listen to the key words and model the language back so she can pick up the key words. She’s just demonstrating what she’s heard from others, so perhaps reducing your language back a bit will help build hers up!

Yes it’s almost like she has so much to say she can’t wait to think of the words so it all just comes out as random sounds, but with proper inflection and hand gestures etc. I usually just go “oh really?” Or “is that so?” Or “wow that’s interesting” 😂 I learned not to agree or disagree cos she certainly knows what she’s trying to say and I could be agreeing to anything 🙈

My daughter purposely says 'goo goo ga ga' like a pretend baby. She will also babble and when I ask what she said, she will come out with a sentence. X
