I took it that way at first too, then reread it and saw that he was 6 months old when they got her older daughters diagnosis.

Please check out the suggested speech milestones above.

As a mom of a child with classic autism, I would advise you to be concerned and to seek a professional speech evaluation. Early intervention is essential.

For those out there with speech delayed toddlers, there are some great DVDs available at the website above. You can often find them used on Amazon.com.

I have a free YouTube channel devoted to speech (see link below). My reading channel is also a great resource for toddlers with speech delay, especially my collection of alphabet videos (see below). Finally, I have links to many speech and autism resources on my free website, www.freevideosforautistickids.com on the "speech links" and "autism links" pages.

--Good luck!

My older son had severe speech delay, but I found that he was able to be greatly helped through intensive work with him on speech and meds for anxiety.
