Is there something-wrong with her? How late is too late, and should I take her to the doctor? The first words are usually spoken around the age of one, but anywhere from ten to fifteen months is considered normal, so don't start worrying yet. However, if your child has experienced any of the following problems, know that it is possible that she is at risk for delayed speech and language development: A difficult delivery, or trauma before birth; ven- tilation or intubation after delivery due to an inability to breathe on her own; and inability to suck or swallow well; middle ear infections; high fevers that led to seizure; a noticeable lack of babbling or response to others' speech at around six months; cerebral palsy; or general retardation. All of these (as well as other unknown causes) can be precursors to speech and/or language development problems, but not necessarily cause problems. Knowing why a child is slow to talk 1s not necessary to begin treating the problem. If you suspect your child is behind in speech and language development, look for a certified and (if the state requires it) licensed speech and language pathologist, or a clinic accredited by the American Speech, Language and Hearing Association. It will be listed as "PSB" or Professional Service Board-accredited. An important part of the therapist's work is teaching the parents to stimulate the child by talking and using other techniques to encour- age development. Therapists and develop- mental researchers are also interested in trying to predict speech problems early on. An infant thathas problems sucking or swallowing should be carefully observed by the parents over the next few months for behavioral cues to future speech troubles. The therapist can also be consulted to help with feeding the child. Parents of children who have chronic ear infections should be especially watchful of po- tential problems with speech and language de- velopment. Ear infection can cause slight, usually temporary, hearing loss which in turn can delay oral/motor function. \ This health awareness is brought to you as a service to the Back Mountain community by Robert Greenhalgh, M.D..
