My younger daughter didn't speak till almost she was 3 year old and she is so talkative now. At that time, few MOs told us be mentally prepared she is autistic. We were not worry as we always mentally prepared what given to us. We still bring her for follow up and she suddenly spoke so well and fluently when the doctor asked her to count numbers, read alphabets and draw shapes. I still remember that day clearly, she replied the doctor 1-20+ till doctor stopped her; A for apple, b for boy, c for....till Z finished with cheeky smile; she drew triangle, circle, square though not very nice. The doctor was amazed and told us she is gifted, who said she is autistic, she is just slow in speech or refuse to speak. So please don't worry, your son should be fine. Every child is different, don't be stress ok? 🌈💪
