Went through a rabbit whole of looking at videos of my first born who was th exact age of my current 16 month old and the difference in speech is insane! My first born was saying lots and lots of words whereas my 16 month old has only said about 3 words? Is it too early to worry about potential speech delay? I know you shouldn’t compare 2 children as they reach milestones at different times but the difference was honestly insane!

Exactly the same here. My first had said octopus at 16 months and my second occasionally says ‘hooray’ and that’s about it. Not even getting muma or dada yet. He is however babbling non stop and mimicking etc, I don’t think they’re concerned until nearer 2. It’s just hard having had an early talker first.
