She said umma and appa before she turned 1, but she really started picking up words and understanding what we were saying after her 1st birthday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189439 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 14:13:41 +0000 Andrea 189439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree that talking is way better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189421 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 14:07:29 +0000 MamaMoose 189421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HAHA... my mom always says that I was the PERFECT baby... until I learned to talk : ) I talked A LOT (still do). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189419 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 14:06:19 +0000 mrbee 189419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Talking is way better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189411 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 14:05:13 +0000 Rock n Roll 189411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: I think it's a lot different with your own, especially since you're a SAHM! You are around her all the time and most of the things she says will be parroting you.</p> <p>I love that she can talk, because then she can say funny things. But there is something sweet and innocent about that mute stage in the beginning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189399 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 14:03:04 +0000 heffalump 189399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: Yay that's exciting! Something to look forward to :)<br /> @chopsuey119: When did she start talking?<br /> @cyneswith: I also worry that I won't be able to understand my LO because I don't understand my friend's kids. But hopefully it's different with your own! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189366 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 13:55:24 +0000 cyneswith 189366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This isn't with my kids, but with kids in general. I like them either before they start talking, or when their talking is intelligible. They get frustrated far more easily in the in-between stage. With my godson, though, I picked up his "language" pretty quick, so i imagine the in-between stage is easier with one's own kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189347 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 13:52:22 +0000 looch 189347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Talking is much better...it cuts down on everyone's frustration. But there are other ways to communicate, like using pointing to objects or pictures, which we've done with a little success. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189336 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 13:50:56 +0000 chopsuey 189336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love that LO can talk. Can't wait until she's a better communicator!\ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189334 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 13:50:36 +0000 mrs. wagon 189334@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ever since Wagon Jr. started to talk, I've enjoyed parenthood MILLIONS of times more!!! It literally was like a 180 degree turn for me. He used to just be work.... now I really enjoy spending time with him.</p> <p>He's only JUST started talking back a little at 2.5 years. It was great until that started. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/parents-with-talking-los-did-you-like-the-non-talking-or-talking-stage-better#post-189329 Thu, 14 Jun 2012 13:49:18 +0000 heffalump 189329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO doesn't talk yet, and sometimes I think it would be nice if she could just tell me what she wanted. I hate having to make all of her decisions for her and just hoping that's what she wants. But then I think that when she can talk, she can talk back. And that's no fun. </p>
