Some of the babies in my dd playgroup are speaking a lot, answering questions and making associations between things. The are 15 months. My dd is 14 mths and she says maybe 10 words. Is it your opinion that the kids even out eventually, or do the one's that start ahead, stay ahead. These babies seem really smart to me. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

my 14mo didn't say much (much less then other kids) and now at 2 (24 mo) is talking up a storm and seems to be right in the mix of things. . even knows a bit more then some of the big talkers - some colors and letters whereas they are still in the parroting stage. [ Reply | More ]

okay that is interesting. I don't mean to be paying attention to all this, and I am trying to ignore it, but I guess I'm curious. [ Reply | More ]

I tried not to be competitive, but I finally asked ped if dd was ok at 18mo checkup and she said she was normal, but on the slower side. Literally at 19 -20 months there was an explosion of words and it's been non-stop ever since. It's so amazing and very cool! I love it. Today she said "Mommy Elmo dances" as she was making him dance.

that is your best bet. And from everything I have heard, kids who do things very early is no indication of how they end up. Apparently my dh was an early reader. . and he is smart, but hates reading now and cheated a lot in college! You just never know ;) [ Reply | More ]

My 18mo ds has about 5 words, so I say your dd is doing just fine. Also, it does even out. [ Reply | More ]

Thanks so much for your response. I do feel that she is doing fine, I don't mean to give off the impression that I don't, I am mostly curious if early talking is a sign of greater intelligence. [ Reply | More ]
