18 months baby girl still cannot speak

heiheisandy

My baby girl has just reached 18 months but still cannot speak simple single words except making the sounds seem like"Dad Dad", "姐姐" and "mum mum" etc.  I have arranged her to receive a speech assessment in a private centre today.  ST commented that my daughter was quite weak in imitating sound and her ability to understand was somehow not very strong.  Shall I let my daugther start speech therapy immediately or have second opinions from another ST (the present ST seems to be not very nice but it is just my first impression)? Any good ST recommended?

Please advise.  Many thanks!

Thanks for your reply. Can you give me some more details about this Global Assessment (e.g. who will conduct the assessement? what's its purpose and how expensive etc?)

If you want to be safe, you may take your daughter to do a Global Assessment (HK Sanatorium this test but quite expensive)
