They are all different sweety - both my kids could talk intelligently and with huge vocabularies very young but both needed speech therapy to correct some speech syndromes so very few people could understand them! Try not to worry about it - their speech usually becomes clearer very quickly and if there were problems i am sure you would already know! xxx

Every kid is different. our oldest was talking in full sentences by 18 months and sounded like a 4 or 5 year old. our 2nd is just over 2 and she is only saying 3 or 4 words together and she still says stuff you dont understand lol. It will just become more clear over time and soon you'll go from "i can't wait to hear him talk" to "why doesn't he stop talking?" lol
