I actually made a list the other day! She says 55 words/phrases now

Avatar

Around 20 words by now, it’s an even mix between and me and Mrs Rachel teaching these words, some came from her songs or word segments and the others came from me narrating everything and copying how Mrs Rachel teaches stuff lol I also use flash cards which she likes so she can say quack and meow when she sees those animals because of some dollar tree cards lol took like two weeks but impressive when she was only 12 months at that time

what??? At 15! Months? What’s the list? Teach us your ways!

Mine is saying mama, dada, nana for her grandma and wow when she sees something and gets surprised by it. Only once she said quak per ducks 😄. I feel like she is so behind but the speech therapist told me get worried if she turns 19 months and still says only mama and dada, before that is too early

My son says mama, dada and nana. His pediatrician wants him to get evaluated by a speech therapist since he’s been saying those for a while and hasn’t improved on words. But within the last month his communication skills have improved a lot. Like he just started waving and blowing kisses. She said he was so focused on learning to walk he didn’t care about learning to talk😅

My son says mama, dada, nana, papa, And hi. Some days he babbles / says words often and other days barely speaks and some days just makes random noises 🤷‍♀️

At our 15 month appointment, the pediatrician asked if we were saying 6 words. (Which is how many ours says) That was her base. She said as long as baby is meeting other social standards it’s okay if they aren’t saying many words yet.

Just Dada

aside from mama/dada our baby says hi, bye, night night, wow, quack, woof, thank you, ball, no, and boo. she also signs more, please, eat, and drink. babbles like crazy all day long and does some sounds like mmm when she eats something good or gasping when she sees something cool. she also understands a lot more words or directions like come here/go there, build something, and understands when shes asked questions about people or things she knows (where’s dada?)

I lost count, but she doesn't say every word every day or anything. She says hi, hey, thank you, yeah, no, banana, "I did it," oh, door, baby, Doodle (one of our cats), bubble, all done, etc. Lots of little things. She also said my husband's name before she said Dada because she heard me calling him by his name and was like oh okay that's the word to use for that person 🫠 oops. She says dada now tho

She also still signs a lot, including the signs for "milk" and "want" as well as waving hi and bye.

We do watch lots of Ms Rachel in this house and I notices a huge increase in her vocabulary when we started her on those videos, just once a day (sometimes half a video because some are really long)

Avatar

Mine only says “uh-oh”

Avatar

this was her list at 14 months actually! I don’t do anything special? Just talk to her like a human lol she does have a 2 year old (just turned 30 months🙄) brother so they talk all day long to each other lol we don’t do hardly any screen time and we read lots of books and songs!

Mine babbles alot says Dada like crazy she can say mama but doesn't. She also says thank you, no, yes, baby and hello.

10ish - like another person mentioned a mix between me and Mrs Rachel, using her methods like songs, repetition, bringing attention to my mouth when pronounciating and giving them time to repeat

we are at 29 words, and remember sounds count like animal sounds moo, baa, lala etc

My LO really likes music so most are sounds and now she’s doing two words like what’s that, oh man, oh wow etc but i talk to her a lot with repetitive phrases so all those she got from me and she doesn’t say it clearly but i know that’s what she’s saying bc she repeats it after me in the same tone lol

When do things get easier?

As we entered the 9-12 month stage, my son started crawling and pulling himself up. He also became more clingy and does not play alone, still doesnt sleep through the night, and this week has been sick (so EVERYTHING amplified). I am tired and overwhelmed. Please lie and tell me things get better. 🥺

4 month bed time

What time do you put your babies to bed?
What time do you start your 'routine?'
My LO currently goes to bed around 10.30pm, and I know i need to start bringing it forward. Everytime ive tried, it takes longer for my LO to settle.
We are exclusively breastfeeding. Any advice Mamas?

Colostrum storing?

Has anyone successfully extracted colostrum before the baby’s born? Apparently it gets produced from 16w pregnant and you can start storing it in the freezer but I’m 34w looking at my nipples and the syringes on amazon wondering how it works?? Like what did you use and did it hurt? 🥲

Baby with chronic congestion

Hi everyone! My 1 year has been a congested baby since birth almost. She breathes through her mouth so often that it wakes her up multiple times at night and she cries and screams and then struggles to go back to sleep. She wakes up every 1-3 hours and sometimes can’t go back to sleep for 2-3 hours!!! Piriton is the only thing that seems to help her sleep mostly through the night but I can’t keep giving her that!!
Does anyone have tips as to have I can do or give her? Has anyone experienced? I have no idea when I’ll get an ENT appointment and I have no idea what he can give a 13 mo :( we are desperate for sleep so any tips are welcome!! We have tried steam inhalation, saline drops, vapour rubs and everything off the counter basically!

Combi feeding advice

Has anyone gone from EBF to combi feeding? Currently do one bottle of EBM per night and they one half formula half breast milk mixed in the day. The other times she still feeds on me. Ideally I want to feed all day via bottle and all night with breast. She’s 7 weeks and takes a bottle well, how long should I leave it before adding another bottle to her daily routine?
