Worried about lack of words

My daughter only says mama. Every child develops in their own time.

My boy say things but not mama x

Mine doesn’t say anything yet, just babbles allllll day long! Non stop! But I am not worried because he has good communication skills ☺️

Yes that say as my boy xx

My little boy says Mama and Dada but only as a babble. He has no meaning to them so they're not technically 'words' yet. On the other hand, my friends daughter (same age) is saying 20 words already. I've been told not to worry, up to 15 months is still within the average

Our little one babbles most of the time. He says "mama/mam mam" and something like "nein nein nein", "agua" when he wants to drink water, "gagagaga".... But really nothing more. He is very communicative, so we don't worry about it. He'll speak more words sooner or later. Also, we speak 3 languages at home (English, German, Spanish), so we know that it's more difficult for him to catch up. However, he understands a lot of words in those 3 languages, like "Flugzeug/ airplane, Wasser/ water/ agua, his favourite fruits, in den Mund/ to the mouth, danke/ thank you, etc.

December 2024 but he just has baba, mama and dada and not often.

If I tell him something though, he understands and listens. He responds to his name, he points at things, follows basic instructions like “could I have that please?”, “can I have a hug?”, “let’s go upstairs please”.

Words will come later. My daughter had dozens of words at this age and signing so it’s hard not to compare but I’m not worried yet. He gets it, he’ll have a word explosion soon enough.

Yes my sons understands just doesn’t say many words just sounds.

Same as what many people here have said. Lots of babbling, some mama and dada, that’s all. But he does seem to understand quite a bit and is good at expressing himself (pointing etc)
