my son is 2 yes and 3 months. He doesn't talk. He says occasional words but not clearly. He has good hearing and vision. He knows objects like beaker shoes blanket biscuit etc. He has only just started pointing but not all the time. I wouldn't worry yet about him talking and enjoy the silence lol. Don't rush or push him too much but when you give him things say the name of it etc. Numbers are good to learn.
you could ask for his hearing to be checked out in case that is the reason for him not looking when being called etc.

Follow on milk.....what's your opinion?

2 year old doesn't want his milk anymore.
By 18 months, to be on track with development he should have 3 words - that he uses and the you recognise. Some children have a lot more than this but as long as he has 3 then he's progressing according to normal milestones! Have you tried some baby music - the ELC CDs are great often babies and small children will pick up rhymes and songs much quicker than words. Also PP is right, boys as so much slower than girls!
If you're worried, phone your hv for advice but I really don't think you have anything to worry about

Talk to him sing with him leave him time to reply it doesnt matter if he doesnt reply to begin but he'll soon learn.
