Finally had the developmental assessment - my kid is OK!!!!!!!


So, about a month or so ago, we started worrying about our kid because she wasn't talking at all, at 15 months. She understood us just fine, but never said any words, and the pediatrician said that by 15 months she was supposed to have at least 3 words. We scheduled a speech/language assessment, and got an even more disturbing finding - that apparently, at 15 months of age, her expressive language was at a 6-month-old level.Well, we finally managed to get an appointment with a developmental specialist to evaluate our kid. The appointment was today. The kid is now 16.5 months old. She passed the assessment with flying colors, proudly demonstrated the 10 words that she knows (yay!), and all of her development is either normal or ahead of schedule. Apparently, her language development is actually ahead of schedule now.And now we breathe a huge sigh of relief and move on to the next worry. via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2oeDN5s
