Should 15 months old be talking???

[hypatia]

Frukc,
I agree with your theory: I did read one of Doman's book which said the earlier the child grasps, the better (along with climbing, walking, crawling). My daughter has very good motor skills. She was picking tiny amount of food early on (around 7 m), she started puzzles at 12 m..very strong little girl who runs, carries up to 2.5 kilos (she looks for my dumbells and bring them to me) at 14 months.

Still although she babbles a lot, and there is a definite intention to what she says, most of her words are neither french nor english. around 7 or 8 words now that she says well.

I guess my question is.. maybe she could if she wanted to?
Could you give me a few links so i try what you recommend? I'd love some practical activities.

Which reminds me.. I believe Doman said he was asking late speakers to crawl. I might try this. She has been crawling at all since the age of 10-11 m.

hypatia,
what a great girl you have : ) your child's speech is not delayed at all if she says so many words. unclear words must also be counted if they are used with meaning

You mean, some practical advices to encourage speaking? I could not find English links. I don't know the right keywords. So I just took advices from Latvian websites

Nibbling of all kinds. displace peas or beans (one after one) from one bowl to another. put beans in the botle. sort beans from  peas. browse a book. jingle a bell. string beads.
plastering. playing with nature materials (branches, leaves, shells, barks, sand,  stones etc). 

my child was late walker, and she crawled 7 months in total. I don't know if it was good because she is not as strong and fast as other kids of her age.

15 month old is enough big to talk some words like Mama, Dada. A 15 months age child can speak 10-15 easy words. If your child is not able in talk accurate words then there is some problem in your kids communication skill and you should take help of a best speech therapist.

I was so afraid last time when my son aren't talking at all. He would just scream and yell if he wants something until he's 2y and 8 months. Sent him to my mom and she sort of helped with that, I don't know how. Well, I guess it's from the experience when she have me as a baby. Very thankful to her.
