My son just turned a year old over the weekend. I am concerned because he's not saying any words other than "ma-ma" and "da-da" and I'm not totally convinced he is actually using those words to refer to myself and his dad. Everything I read says that he should have at least one other word that he can say! I hope I'm just overreacting but I'm feeling anxious about his well visit and hearing the doctor possibly express concern. Does anyone else have any insight?

12 months is WAY too young to even be worrying about this but I understand where you are coming from. I used to worry when my first child was younger too but looking back now I realize what a waste of time it was.
Stop reading and listen to your Pedi at the next check up.
She is now 16 months old and can say "bye". She also tries to say other words such as milk, bib, bath, etc., but is typically only getting out the beginning sound of each of these words. We are constantly labeling objects for her, and encouraging her to talk more...but I feel like there's only so much we can do.
