Speech Early Intervention!!

We noticed when the son was 18 months old he wasn't doing his regular baby babble that most babies do. We went to see his Pediatrician because at this time we didn't know what was normal. The daughter was talking in small sentences at 18 months and apparently she was advanced for her age so we got concerned. The Pediatrician recommended we see a Speech Pathologist so there we went for our first evaluation and that was almost a year ago. She's been working with him and the son definitely had some problems talking. Last August he had surgery on his tongue and he has improved some but not where he needs to be. He has his County Early Intervention appointment this coming Thursday and I'm so hoping he gets into the program so he can catch up. He's 2 1/2 and some kids do talk late but his speech therapist thinks he needs the help and it has nothing to do with talking late but he's having problems pronouncing the words. Right now he's only saying less than 10 words. I'm just praying he can get the help he needs and the County thinks he's worth helping in his development so he has a better chance to talk like kids his own age. Take care, Peace!!
