my 21 month old doesn't talk
my biggest boy did not really talk until he was over 2 he is now 14 and theres no shutting him up! i wouldent worry too much talking is like everything else they will do it when they are ready and there is no set age . i have 4 and 2 of them talked pretty early but my eldest one not a thing until he was 2 and my 3rd child was also pretty quiet and is still not great (she is 4) but she is having speech therapy. i would def have the 2 year check but dont worry too much children develop at differant rates and im sure when your lo starts to talk there will be no stopping him

I totally agree..........they all speak when they are ready. Some early some late.
I have 3 year old and 20 month. My youngest babbles but understands everything i say to him. His babble means something to him and I try to respond even if I dont understand him. I just say...clever boy well done. He says mam, dadda, his sibling names, doggy, ducky, teddy, oh and loads more I cant think of the all and its bit tediuos for you readers. Anyway, dont worry. Once they start thats it they are away. Mine are all early walkers and late talkers. Nothing wrong with my son now 16 or my daughter now 13 and they were the same.
Keep talking to them, reading to them and loving them...thats the best we can do.

I have a 21 month old that doesn't talk, He has been getting speech for almost five months now where he learns sign language. I am having him evaluated for autism as it runs in the family and I want to know why he isnt talking. His father thinks he will talk when hes ready. Me on the other hand, I think theres a developemental issue. He does not play with toys either.
