Hi everyone,
Im not sure if this is a twin thing or something I need to be worried about. Ryan is babbling saying ba ba sort of things but Khain isnt really babbling. He sort of says 'dis' and is quiet compared to his brother. He passed his hearing tests at hospital and we have given him a few tests at home (Sneaking up behind him, rattling something, saying his name when he is asleep etc) and he does react.
Do you think I should take him for a specialist hearing test ?? Everything I have read says he should be babbling by now.

Thankgoodness kids are different..My girls have passed every test ever given, yet at 30mths one has words & the other rarely says much.

but back to your boys if you're worried get him tested it will at least put your mind at risk. But some are much slower at grasping different milestones then others. they all do it at their own pace.
