Mine says 3 other things. Dog, duck and quack. She’s loved ducks if that wasn’t clear 😂 I feel like my son said more at this age but every baby is different. She points to things and seems curious to learn more she just isn’t speaking them out yet. She does scream and yell and growl a lot. So I’m not worried.

I feel like my girl talks a lottt but I’m a ftm, so not sure lol. Also, for some reason a lot of her words seem to start with B 🤷🏼‍♀️ Bubba and Bella (our dogs), bubbles, ball, boo, etc. She mispronounces p words with b as well so pops and pawpaw and paci all sound weird but I can tell what she’s saying. Most of her other words are names or animals sounds: Nana, Nonnie, rawr, bock bock, moo, neigh, snack (nack), dog, etc. She will attempt to imitate anything I say, but the above is what she typically does on her own. She also signs more, water, and please. ☺️

We are a trilingual household, and thankfully, I have a test child😂( she's 4), and I know talking will come. As of now, my 15 month old points, claps, and says ball, dog, and a few other things. My thing as a first-time mom, what I wished someone told me was that once they talk, they don't stop. Which is obvious but it's also forgettable. Your LO will express his/herself soon enough.

My girl is a chatter box even if it’s gibberish 🤣 but she says hi, bye, buh bye, bubbles, dog, ball,up, nana, uh oh and she says mhmmmm a lot 😂

Avatar

Uh oh, ahh choo (sounds more like ahh too right now), pop (with bubbles), and bye bye (sounds more like buh baahh). She said up one night like 5 times super clearly and hasn't wanted to repeat it since. 🤣

Avatar

My girl is talking all the time🤣 when it’s not gibberish she can say, buckle, outside, bubba(our cat), up, dog, bunny, bubble, bike, duck, bath, bye, hi, hello, uh-oh, yeah and she’s said grandma a couple times but that’s it 😅

Avatar

Hi, bye, ball, bath (sounds like baaa), bird, bubble, pop, yeah, no, water(sounds like waaa while doing the sign), milk(she means nurse), eat, hot, uhoh. Two I’m not sure count: meow for the cat and beep which is her nickname.

My daughter (now 7) talked a lotttt, just like lots of other girls in the comments. My son does not say as much at all and it’s so different for me. But boys and girls are so different w that. My son (1) says dada for almost everything. Says sisters name, moo, and uh oh. And growls for animals and some other mimic sounds. So different from sissy who I had a list of 50 words or something at this point 😅

Avatar

5 or 6. Mostly mimicking sounds odd words I say. But mostly momma. Dada. Go. Eat. Up.

No much at all. Mama, dada, baba, he makes a sound that I know means “woof”, and another that means “awww”.
He shows us everyday that he understands so much of what we’re saying. He’s just not saying any of it yet. The pediatrician didn’t seem worried yet. I was told as long as he’s vocalizing and communicating in his own way, to just let it happen on his own time

was just curious bc my boy is talking way more than I expected at this age

Avatar

My 14m old doesn’t say anything yet. Not even the repetitive mamama or dadada. He does talk in gibberish, yells, and growls. By growl it’s an Aaaaahhhh noise. The first thing he ever learned to vocalize 😆

Avatar

He says “bird”, “quack”, “neigh”, “hi”, “bye”, “Mama”, “Dada”, and “cracker” of all things! lol! Opposite of my first son who only said “up” until he was 2 and gained a few more words then. Every kid is different.

Avatar

Small Sentences. And i literally cannot deal 😂 she is 14 months and will walk up to me and repeat “hold me mommy” like 50x .. dude , i thought i had longer to deal with the repetition and the bugaboo stage. She sings almost all the words to nursery rhymes and everything too. She’s a jabber jaw. 😆

Avatar

Other than mama/dada, probably like 10

Avatar

my 15mo refuses to say much besides babbles I am unsure if what he is saying lots of syllables, his first word was dada and he says that often, said mama maybe 3 or 4 times but he doesn't want to. Ped asked me if I wanted him evaluated for early intervention but I feel like he will when he is ready. I'm hopeful anyway.

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

I feel like just a milk cow

Hi I have a 16 day old via c section, I'm a FTM never having been around babies before as I am the youngest of my household and from a small family. My husband is fantastic with our little one. But ever since I've had the baby I just feel like the only thing I'm good for is producing milk. I feel disconnected from my husband like the only reason he's around is because am producing milk. We were having some issues before the baby and we're struggling it took a while to feel like he was onboard even though he said he was from the moment we found out. I dunno if I'm feeling like a spear part because I'm lacking confidence with baby or because I feel like he wouldn't mind being a single dad. Is this postpartum hormones or something else?

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....

Guilt

Does anyone else feel guilty for every little thing they do? I feel like I need to be entertaining my little one at all times. If I have to put her in the activity center to finish a task, instant guilt. In the car for too long, instant guilt. Replying to work emails instead of interacting with her, instant guilt. I know independent play is good for her but my brain thinks otherwise. Please tell me it gets better, I’d love to shower for more than 10 minutes without it feeling like the world is going to collapse.
