After 25 months, it finally happened!!! He TALKS!
 
DS is 25 months and until Nov 10th he had only 7 words. Same 7 he'd had since about 18 months.
I've been consumed by worry and fear. Waiting and waiting for him to talk. According to my MIL, DH talked late at age 2 (although she later took this back and said 18 months ). This helped me feel better but still, I'd lie awake at night worried.
Then, it happened. On Nov 10th he said a new word "mas" (more). I couldn't believe it. Said it clear as day, spontaneously. I cried. I literally cried. He said it again and again.
Next day, 2 more words! "si" (yes) and "up". Again, out of nowhere. Cried some more. The weekend, another word.
This past Friday, 8 new words in ONE DAY!!!! Blows my mind. We are so excited!!!
He's up to 28/29 words so far, 21 learned in the last 2 weeks.
He's had speech for almost 6 months and before the 10th, nothing. I saw no change, no improvement. Ironically he receives speech solely in Spanish but 20 out of 29 words are in ENGLISH!!!
I am so happy. He uses all his words correctly. It's crazy! He uses them all the time, over and over. I ask him things and he answers. And new words just keep pouring out. I think he said "open" today but I don't want to officially count it until I'm sure.
Oh, and if you ask him what Santa says, he says " Ho Ho."
I don't typically share stuff like this but I am so proud of my boy and so happy. Plus, in case another mom is out there like me with a DS like mine, I wanted to share our story.

Re: After 25 months, it finally happened!!! He TALKS!
Wow, that is amazing! I've heard so many parents say that their kids had virtually no words and then one day out of the blue, they start speaking. It's like a switch goes off in their heads, so amazing.
Congrats!!!

My son was the same way. Never even said mama until he turned 2. Then it was like someone flipped a switch and he was talking in full sentences within a week!

Re: After 25 months, it finally happened!!! He TALKS!
That is so great! I know how you feel. I was so worried about my DS to at around that age then all of a sudden it was a word explosion. Some kids just develop slower then others. Everyday is going to be a new word now. So amazing!!
