How many words are you little ones saying? I was told I should be counting how many words my little one can say so now Im trying to list them all and so far we’re at 36. These are just the words I’ve remembered off of the top of my head so I know there’s more. When do you count it as a word they can say? There’s so many words my little one has only said once and then never said again, do they count? Or do they need to be actually saying the words frequently?

Atleast 70 if not more. He doesn’t stop talking 😂 I count it as a word he can say when I can clearly tell what it is he is trying to tell me. It may not be completely accurate but if I can understand it, I count it

Same as Imogen. I started a list but lost count she learns new daily its crazy x

I don't count when my 16months old just repeats because she can mimic sounds pretty well. I count only if she knows the meaning and she can freely use the words by herself before I say anything. A week ago or so and it was 50ish. I don't count anymore because she learns daily. She does say something like 'this is', 'bless you' or difficult workds like 'bicycle', 'busy' so hopefully we will get to 2 words phrase🫶🏻

He says quite a bit but not ALL the time. But probably about 20/30 it’s hard to say right now

Upto 90 now but he's not putting sentences together or anything - but the spectrum is so wide - some of my friend's little ones are only say a few words but are advancing in other ways that my little boy has no interest or idea in how to do yet xx

My LO says full sentences 🙈 she has two older siblings that make her ask for everything they all were advanced talkers so was only expected I couldn’t tel u how many words as like I say there full blown sentences she is nearly 16months x

A fair few, we are on two word phrases now x
