Have you done any research on the opposite end of the spectrum? My daughter knew over 20 animal sounds by 8 months. She was speaking in 2 word sentences at 11 months. By 14 months, she was telling stories (ie. she had a BM in the bathtub and told me ‘A bird did that. It not poop. It a red flower. A bird did it’). By 18 months, she was just plain talking in paragraphs like a preschooler. She is 3 now and still excels in language. She has even taught me a couple words that I have no idea where she learned them! But I don’t believe she is gifted or anything. It is mainly just her language. I was told this could be a sign of Aspergers? Do you have any insight in this? She doesn’t seem to have any trouble with socioemotional development though. She is a little shy and clingy to me in social situations; but she loves playing with other kids a little older than her.
