iv havin a bad day, when my son was born he failed his hearing tests but when theydone them again at 3 mths he passed the health visitor said there was nothink to worrie about, but now his 2 and he still dont really talk he can say the odd words but thats when i sit with him and say them and he copies, well today he went to hthe hospital for his eye check and was told they couldnt do it as they needed him to say the pictures and that his speach was really bad. i was in shock i new his speach was bad but just thought that it was down to the fact that he has to sisters who do and say things for him and that he was just bein abit lazy.

now iv got the health visitor comin on wednesday as they said it could be his hearin after all, im so worried why didnt i spot this sooner, wot will they do im just so confussed
