First word

[Brittny27]

K-bug is now 7 months old and has yet to say any words. We are trying to get her to say mama or dada. There has been a few times that she's babbling and it sounds like she has said it but not sure.

Who's babies have said there first word already?

around 12 months is the normal time for first words, but precocious ones may start around 10 months, especially with a specific "mama" or "dada."  She sounds right on target - babbling with lots of nonspecific dada's - Finn is doing the same thing - dadada's and nanana's.  He also blows a mean raspberry.  I can't believe that we are already talking about potential first words - where did time go?  I want time to slow down.

She babbles a lot and especially when she's mad. I kinda figured it was still early and I wont start worrying until she's over a year and not saying any words yet.

Amiah says "dada"  but not in reference to my husband, just says it over and over.

Lily makes a "mamama" sound when she's mad.  DH swears she's saying mama i think she's just mad.  

All of my kids but my first were late talkers.  They didn't babble until closer to a year.  No developmental issues involved...they just talked late.

Kylie hasn't though she says dadada over and over. I think they generally start speaking similar words by 10 months to a year old.
