Talking

my son is exactly the same, He says “no” like norrr with a Northern accent 🤣 which is strange because we live down south lol x

Its completely normal! My son has about 30 words to him but the only clear ones are more, door, ball and up. Everything else is just sounds. Blue, bath, bird, bin and bu are all ba sounds currently. Pull is pu, bottle is bop.

My now 4yo only had 2 words at 17 months. She was assessed but deemed as okay at 23 months because she had great understanding but only 10 words. At 26 months she had over 100.

I have learned babies ate all different and do things on their own terms! X

The fact he's saying words is amazing. He's communicating. There are 2 types of delays, speech (pronunciation of words) and language (saying words even if they sound incorrect). Any language delays would be addressed as a preschooler but any speech delays would be addressed when a child is older. When they start to learn phonics, this helps. Please don't worry. Your boy has words and this is great. My 17 month old says all sorts of words unclear. In fact, not a single word is the correct pronunciation. But she's saying words and communicating with us. My nephew didn't really start attempting any words till he was 2. But he was walking at 10 months. My daughters been saying words for months, but she's only just started walking. They are all different. Not a speech therapist but a SENCO. A speech and language therapist in Kent wouldn't even see you until your child was much older which shows they're not worried. Just repeat back the word and model language.
