My toddler is 2.5 years old (born Nov 21) and I was quite worried about her speech development. I went to the polyclinic to get a referral for speech therapy, but the process is long—it can take around six months. My toddler has attended two sessions so far, and she is more talkative now, although sometimes she still babble, making it hard to understand. It's a slow but steady journey, and I'm trusting the process. Most people around me say it's too early to get speech therapy, but I was anxious to get started.
