How many words is/was your 14 month old saying?
DS isnt saying a whole lot.
And some of what he says, I know what it is but it isnt super clear.
He's really good with Mama, Dada, Papaw, Nana, buh bye and can sign more and all done. And kinda when he wants to says, cat, car, dog,...

That sounds about where Alaina is at
She says mama, dada, dog, cat, shh!, hi, and hat. She signs mommy, daddy, all done, cat, dog, elephant, milk. She *understands* about a dozen other signs (but doesn't yet reciprocate) and countless other words/phrases though.
14 months he had 2 or 3 words
15 months he had 5-7 words
18 months he has 40 words
DS just turned 14 months and is saying:
mama, dada (neither one are consistent though), uh oh (all the time!), Thank you, hello (isn't very clear), and possibly: ball, down, "welcome" (for you're welcome)
So strange that my kid isn't picking nouns...
DS says baba (for me, my mom (its grandma in russian) and DH), he says "baaa" for sheep, "af" for dog, "buh-bye" and a couple of other things I can't remember right now. For some reason he wont say "mama" I think he's having a hard time w/ the 'm' sound. I'm not worried though as he seems to understand a lot. He brings me stuff (ball, bear, slippers, cup etc) if I ask.
Good grief, my nearly 15mo old doesn't say nearly as many words as all of your kids lol.
She says mama (somewhat randomly, at pictures of me, and when she wants something), says ball (or "ba"), says bottle (ba-ba), and wussat (what's that). Sometimes bye-bye/uh-oh, but she might just be mimicing.
She talks in her own baby language all day, but doesn't have a ton of really definable, clear words.
My DD really doesn't tall. She doesn't babble that much and says Mama and "ook" for book occasionally. Today she finally said Dada. That being said, she does a lot of signing: eat, drink, milk, cracker, banana, all done, more, diaper, baby. She understands and can follow directions. In fact tonight I said, "Bring mama the remote" and she stopped playing to bring me the remote...lol. I hope she does start talking more. I'm minorly concerned. Although, DH keeps saying that I can't discredit her signing vocabulary. I'll find out more at her 15 month in a few weeks.
Okay, wow. Now I'm a little concerned. DS says mama sometimes but not consistently. He says "uh" when he wants up. And that's about it! He babbles all the time but I don't hear any words and he doesn't seem to try to label anything. He just points to things and looks to me to label it, then he moves on.
On the flip side, we've realized that he pretty much understands everything! He points to everyone we name (including himself), follows 2 step directions (e.g. go get Brown Bear and give it to daddy), and can point to nose, ears, eyes, hair, mouth, shoes, etc.
Hmm. I'll try not to worry...yet.
My son only says Dada/Daddy and "uh" for up, too. I was getting very discouraged reading the other posts until I saw this. He can also point and follow directions, as well as sign 5 things. I'm really impressed with all your babies!
