Speech delay

I’m gonna go against the popular opinion here and say cut the tv time. It’s been proven this can cause speech delays in some children and they actually learn far better and faster from face to face time with their caregivers (you). I would continue what you’re doing and maybe join a mommy/baby group to be around other babies
No speech delay for us, but I found this account fairly early which I found helpful to teach me how to encourage her to learn. She's got some good free content, plus points out other products that she likes as a speech therapist for kids https://www.instagram.com/learntotalkwithme?igsh=bWVmODRjc3FkdHRk
I’m in the same boat! Waiting to hear back from the referral. I often sit down with my son and go over flash cards with him but alas he only says a few words. It’s difficult 😞
I really recommend showing flash cards and watching Rachel episodes with him. I sat next to her and repeated all the words Rachel thought and she caught up very quickly.
