Language delay warnings that your child is giving off are always stressful for parents. But it doesn’t always have to be autism as a result. In today’s video, I’m going to review the signs of autism, and help you understand the difference between when it’s autism or some other sort of speech delays. We’ll cover some of the key skills children should have at certain stages, as well as talk about child developmental milestones that’ll help you identify key events on your own.
Not only will we review the speech delay signs, but we’ll also cover what action steps to take after you’ve spotted some of these developmental delays. After this video, you should be able to recognize and know how to tell if it’s autism or speech delay that’s affecting you and/or other children you may be working with.

My son has asd and had speech delays until around 7. He is now 14 and travelling international in debating competitions. He won best speaker a few weeks ago ❤
Praise God
OMG ❤❤❤ You gave me hope.
Always hoping for my grandson
Wow my son is 3 years old has speech delays I want my son to speak so bad
That's great
I just want to give a shoutout and virtual hug for all the worried parents here. we’re all in this together. 💛 please also remember having a child during covid WILL naturally set some things back, life is so weird right now our little ones are trying to adjust to new norms as well. 💛
Yeah… hope this pandemic ends soon.. cant wait to show the world to my son..
yes! I just recorded a podcast about this so watch for it in the next few weeks.
It's been so stressful
We told this to our pediatrician and she completely shut it down and said The pandemic wouldn’t have caused him not to speak
My 2 year old granddaughter don’t like loud sound
My daughter had speech delay . She couldn't make up a sentence of 3 words....when she turned six she started to speak very well. Today she 11 yrs and doing well.
wow. What an amazing story. Thanks for sharing.
@@marybarbera Now we call her the lawyer or the journalist she speaks with confidence and she does well in school.
When did she say her first word, my son Is 3.9years,but he hasn't talked, though he had an issue with his ear, but I thank God he is beginning to respond
yeah, when did she start talking, Toni?
@@josphinemwanza2628 When did your child start talking?
My daughter was very speech delayed. Didn't speak until she was around three! She's now an English teacher.
My friend's son had speech delay, but he is fine now in high school , now speak very well ,doing extremely well in high school.
Hi. When your son started talking properly?
Thank you for sharing this! It means a lot!
My son was speech delayed too until he reached 3.2 years old. I suspected it was because he was always watching tv which is in English, we parents don't speak English in the house. It resulted confusion for him. Now he just turned 5, he's very talkative, talks in english & doing very good in school.
That is great to hear! Thank you for watching.
This is exactly what is happening to my son. He is in preschool already and am already seeing improvements. Thanks for the video nurse.
We speak Spanish to my son but me and my husband speak mostly English to each other. My almost 2 yr old still isn’t speaking but understand us very well. I think this is also resulting in some confusion for him...
When did he start talking?
Nyx Thine same is happening to my brother he’s 4 years old speaks broken English and a little of our mother tongue so worried about him
Other videos are so scary.Thank you Mary for being positive and making me have hope.
You are so welcome

@Mike Allen please tell me the herbs!!!!!
@@musclemomentsbahamas588 this isn't a person. This is a 'bot'. An automated message trying to get you to click on a link.
I have reported it
My younger brother had a speech delay and suddenly out of nowhere at about 2.5 years old he just started speaking fluently. He is now a man in his 30s! It was just a speech delay. My daughter is 20 months old and I was concerned with her but once she started daycare about a month ago she’s suddenly saying way more words and stringing a few together. Not nearly as worried now.
Wow your comment gives me encouragement. I had my daughter evaluated and they told me it’s concerning that she could have autism because of a 1.5 hr evaluation when in my gut as her mother I feel she just didn’t want to interact with them.
Is she respond to you when you call her with name?
I love that your desire is to help, not sell a product. Thank you! So informative for those of us who couldn't see it nor recognize it as something more than the idea of all babies are different and develop differently.
Happy to help!
It’s just 7 days and the outbreaks are well treated and unseen. Thank you so much #Autism #Cancer #Herpes for curing my HSV 1&2 completely. 🌱ruclips.net/channel/UC_YFEEZEr1BxGkNg1d4vqww 💙💗

Thank you for this information, its really helpful. My son is 9yrs and had been in this journey when he was 3yrs old discovered that he had delayed speech.

As a first-time mom, I had a lot of questions that intimidated yet angered me from my son’s pediatrician. He just turned 2, but he can’t point at objects (but can use one finger on a phone/tablet), he can’t really follow many basic commands, he has limited speech (he’s in ST and OT), and resorts to whining or crying to get my attention instead of calling me “Mama”. He also tends to enjoy his own company at his daycare and not play with others as much. It gets frustrating for me at times, because he always points out at what he can’t do verses what he can do and say. He wants to get him evaluated, but he said at max, my son would be seen by six months to a year if I’m lucky. But until then, I’m happy that your video gave me solace instead of feeling Mrs constantly being compared to other toddlers his age.
There is so much you can do while you wait! Join us for a free workshop to learn about our course and community. MaryBarbera.com/workshops for all the information.
My daughter didn’t point using an index finger until she was 23 months old and she is not autistic. Some kids just point later than others.
I am just confused, and when i think of my 2year old son who doesnt point out at objects neither does he call me "mama" i feel so sad and its like whenever i think of just the word "autism, i feel tears at my heart. I see some signs of autism in my son i feel bleeding inside me i read qnd listen alot about autism, i feel like doing my best for my son but as much as i read or watch videos because of the bleeding part in me, that is very scared i do not grasp anything i even got miscarriage i am sure it was because of stress of my son. I do cry inside me i remember that day that i felt the miscarriage, i could not hold of my thinking of my son i had just left him at preschool and i was just imargining how he is copying up with out speech, without responding to his name oh God just help us through this dilema
Hullo, your child is exactly like my son. I'm so worried, everything you said about yours is how mine is. I really don't know what to do he is making two years in February. Dis you get some help? I'm so worried don't know what to do
@@tinakyeyune1323 How's your son doing 4 months later? Any progress on the speach front?
My firstborn son did not really speak, he was born in 1988, was always watching. I thought perhaps he was deaf, but he was not. A very silent child, very shy. I was told not to worry about his language, "it would come". He was a select mute at school, had speech therapy. He speaks now mostly to his younger brother. He found out the useful word "fine". I was extremely impressed when he came home from his first day of grade 9 and said, without me asking, that he had someone from his grade 8 class in every one of his classes. Also found out later that the football team policed the cafeteria to watch for people who sat alone, and make sure they were not bothered by anyone. Mostly he was ignored, a silent, biddable child. At 16 he was given cognitive behaviour therapy, which allowed him to drive, get a job. He was finally, at age 18 diagnosed as a highly functioning autistic person. I was lucky, no tantrums, but many bullies bothered him, and he is so "literal". His regular music teacher was off on mat leave and the fellow who took over the band practices said, "If you are even 1 minute late to practice, don't bother coming anymore" My son was late once, due to bullying I learned later, and he did not ho back to band until the next year when his regular teacher was there, which I found out much later. My son gets jokes in movies, but he did not understand the replacement band teacher was joking about not coming back. So he is now a master of faking being "normal"as long as conversation is not attempted, other than to point out a mistake, or point you in the proper direction. I did something right, not everything, but some things.
This was really helpful. Thank you so much Mary.
You are so welcome!
My son use to mom,go ,give me , grandma, when he was 1year old and he is turning three and not saying much.
Thank you for sharing this! It’s so helpful.👍
Glad it was helpful!
My Parents / Relatives to me when I was a little... I cant walk until the age between 1 1/2 to 2 yrs old and 2 yrs old ive start running around according to my picture and also I cant talk word by word until age of 3 and I cant use phrase and sentence until age 4 but Thanks God I can do whatever I want with a little bit of support.. Im now 24 yrs. and 1 mo. Now and I have mild autism...
Do u have this hand flapping as a stimming since you're just a baby?
I have a 25 month old. No words, and I’m not sure he understands any. We are on a wait list for autism eval. No pointing, no imaginative play, when he does play, it’s not how they are intended. He likes to organize things over and over. Runs back and forth and is a toe walker. We have a hard time getting his attention or getting him to look at us. He does take our hand to things he wants. Example, he wants to go outside, he will grab our hand and place it on the door. Not sure if that’s the same as pointing? Anyway, we know some things just aren’t “normal” for toddlers his age. As a parent, it’s so hard to be helpless and not really have any answers or just be able to fix it. He is in speech therapy, and on a wait list for autism eval where we can get him more help. Appreciated your video.
Thank you for watching. I am happy you found my information. He does have many red flags for autism but I have a free workshop for families of toddlers regardless of diagnosis to help increase language . It can be found here bit.ly/2ELvSnM . I also have a podcast on early intervention marybarbera.com/2 and it is all about early intervention

My grandson is 2 years of age started preschool thanks for this vedio i will work with him
Vielen Dank für das Hochladen! !
When my son was diagnosed in February I was devastated but your videos helped me cope and gave me the strength to fight for services. Thank you!
I am so happy to hear that they helped you!
Thank you Mary, this video is very useful as I plan to share with other
My daughter didn't really speak until she was 2.5 year old. After that, she suddenly began to speak really really well. It was like a miracle. She didn't really bubble when she was an infant and I was a little worried. Now she is 6 and speaks 2 languages. Maybe it's the bilingual situation in our house that caused the problem.
I've heard similar stories! Thanks for sharing your experience here.
Thank you for a brilliant video - really useful
thank you for watching! I am happy you found it useful.
I’ve recently started working as an ABA therapist. Thank you for being thorough and informative. Your video really helped answer questions I had.❤

Thank you for this Google says this should be by 12months so I was worried as my 12 month old is not pointing, not clapping, loves his cars but is clingy. And google had me convinced he had autism. This gives me hope thank you so much
I noticed my daughter at 19 months with the following symptoms
-not much eye contact
-no name response
-no waving
-not pointing
-no words
-started spinning with corner eyes
-tip toeing occasionally
-lining up toys
I decided to take away screen time and replace it with a lot of-face interaction (which she didn’t have before). A week later she started making eye contact and 2 weeks later she started to respond to her name. She also stopped spinning completely as well and shaking her head. She also used to hold on an object on each hand for a big part of the day now she rarely does it. She now high fives and waves. She imitates gestures when we sing nursery rhymes like (baby shark, twinkle little star if your happy and you know it clap your hands etc.) She still lines up certain toys but now she’s more busy exploring the house and more interested in books. It has been a month now and she has made so much progress.
She still has no words and doesn’t point yet and on her own but started to point if I point. She would also spin (not excessively) but she would do it almost everyday and now she never does.
So now I’m confused if it can be autism or screen induced behavior due to the over stimulation on her brain. (She watched cocomelon on repeat) She also didn’t have much interaction with me since I worked so much and I just feel so guilty. I quit my job and now I’m dedicating all my time to her.
Thank you so much for sharing your story with us my son is 18 months old and as someone who studied special education I think was over thinking his language delay,
I think I was also over analyzing her language/speech delay. It has been 2 months and she has changed so much. She brings toys to me now, she started to understand simple commands like “throw it in the trash” she’s pointing a lot more.
Thank you Mary. This video is so helpful.

Thank you so much for this video! My son is 20 months and very advanced with fine motor but delayed with speech and lacks pointing. Your video is the first to offer comfort as we wait for our evaluation! Bless you and the work you do!
Glad it was helpful!
How if your son now? My daughter is 2 & is extremely developed in fine motor skills but also lacks in pointing so I’m a little concerned after watching this as it’s never been brought to my attention about the pointing.
@@tahleafinn4461 He's doing wonderfully! The pointing eventually came. His speech improved tremendously, too. I was assured it would in our evaluation -- but we also cut screens in January, and that's when I saw the biggest improvement. How is your daughter's speech? I'd bring the pointing thing up to your pediatrician and see what they have to say. Mine was always very reassuring that kids develop on such different timelines. ❤
Thank you for this video it's been a great help for me and my son.
Glad it helped!
@@marybarbera hi dr mary can have email I am mom who need to talk to..my names hanna

My grand children all were quick to learn to speak except my grand daughter, who as a baby was very quiet and was later to talk....even now at 18 is still a quiet person. Some children are just not outgoing as others and take time.
Yes, this is true but it is important to act in case it is more.
God bless you ma'am. My son is 2 years old and still can't speak I was beginning to panic but you gave me a lot of hope when you spoke about pointing. Hope you have a great day

Happy to help
Thanks. I've learned so much through your videos. My son is two and has been with Early Intervention since he was 16 months. He displays many of the autism signs. They will not do an Autism Diagnostic test until he is between 2 1/2-3 years old. Right now he's been labeled with a 30% developmental delay and speech delay. He receives speech, OT and DT weekly. Hoping to learn more and works with him at home. He isn't talking and his frustration level and tantrums have increased with age. He is learning basic sings but will jot use them consistently. I'm hoping to help him communicate better and learn ways to express his needs and wants.
I am so happy you have found them helpful. I think my toddler course would really help you build those language skills and signs with him. Check out a free workshop www.marybarbera.com/toddler-ws
Hi, how’s your son doing now? My daughter sounds very much like your son.
I learned a lot from you. My grandson who's 3.4yrs old was diagnosed by his pediatrician has mild autism non-verbal. So he is undergoing theraphy to improve his social behavior and also speech theraphy.

I was interested in hearing this, even though my 2 sons are now 33 and 29. I did not know back in 1988 and 1991 that speech delay was an early sign of autism. When my first son did not talk like the milestones stated, this was something I had never heard about, I didn't know you could have a child that didn't start talking like they should. I still am interested in learning about this, even though they are grown up now. Thank you. At one point, they gave my first son a diagnosis of PDDNOS, pervasive developmental disorder, not otherwise specified. I think that was a way of saying they didn't know what to call it.
thanks for sharing your insight.
@ Linda: how is your son is doing now still shows autism symptoms or he has outgrown it ? Please reply if you can I’m worried about my son

Hi, I see your comment is a year old.. May I know how’s your toddler progressing? I have 2 years old son with delayed speech too
@@Oueux Hello my daughter is turning 3 in a couple of weeks now and thank God she is now communicating, talking, singing and dancing. She loves to watch cocomelon and kiddie japanese videos from youtube. We’re not japanese and we’re from Australia so I’m worried she might learn more japanese than english as she was starting to speak japanese as well lol. But I guess all children are different and could start talking in different times. 😊
What all was your child lacking at this age? I see you said she is better now!
Thank you. Very helpful!
You're welcome!
Very reassuring, thank you
You are so welcome
Thank you Dr. Barbera. This is a second video from you that I'm watching. My 31m.o. (i)observes and look but doesn't point. He uses his middle (rather than index) finger to explore new things; (ii)can follow some simple instructions like, "put your bottle on the table" or "throw this wrapper into the dustbin". However, I'm unsure if he is actually understanding the language or habituated to the behaviour since these activities are happening daily.; (iii)imitates his elder brother (5yr4m) in making sounds, reading 1 or 2 syllable words, & starting to have little bit of imaginary play like pushing toy cars around, hugging teddy bear. He has some toys where he is more fixated with (e.g., toys with blinking lights & sounds) but can grow tired of them after awhile and move on to another toy. I have not seen him playing with one toy for hours but maybe a little over an hour.
It is hard to say without knowing him but I do have online courses that may help you even if he isn't diagnosed. Check out www.marybarbera.com/workshops

He knows to memorize alphabet from A-Z,can count 1-100,knows the shapes,fruits,vegetables and everything is what he sees he can name that. The only thing is that he has difficutlties of constructing a sentence...Sometimes its frustrating to a mother seeing my son like this..i enrolled him in one nursery school and teachers noticed that he can perform and join acivities/exercises but short span of time only.he sometimes got difficulties of playing around with other kids (I dont know if it's maybe because he is my first bby and he get used to play alone)...
It can be hard to say for sure ! The best thing to do is if you are concerned to get a developmental evaluation. They can help decipher if it is autism, ADHD, something else or just typical development !
@AmieReamico any updates. Does your son use jargon is he potty trained?
@@laryssa4640 hi Laryssa...what do u mean?.
my son is enrolled as nursery 2 now..
he is good in school,he can write his complete name,can read sounds and phonics,easy to memorize and he cn answer u if u ask him what is the lesson on that day...
the only thing that bothered me is when he is inside the school,he got tantrums sometimes.he likes to lay down on the floor and sometimes doesn't stay in one place but if u tell him to do his seatwork or anything about the lesson he cn answer..
he still dont know how to construct a sentence but I observe lately that he is quite quite aware in his environment.
he is my only son and I'm not pretty sure if it is one of the reason y he doesn't like to play with other kids..
I don't have problem with him in terms of waking him up for school.he never complain that he dont want to go school.but when he is inside the room his bhvr change. he seldom play with classmates.sometimes lazy to write .buy when he reach at home,he can be normal kid.

Hi! Watching this video helped so much, that I had to share this video with my sister. 🙂
Great!! I am happy I helped you both.
This has gave me so much info on the things i have been experiencing with my 2 year old. She was born at 26 weeks and of course there is a higher chance for autism. Her vocab. Only includes the word stop and car.
Happy to hear it helped. Regardless of diagnosis you can start helping build her speech. You can sign up for a free workshop here www.marybarbera.com/workshop
How is it going?
Very interesting. My oldest son only started speaking when he was 3,5 years old. Up til them he knew less than 10 words. Also had very little understanding of language. But he WAS pointing.. He was at 3,5 diagnosed with speech delay, although they never found the cause of it. By the time he turned 7 he had caught up with his peers, and is now a thriving 9 year old. Between the age of 3,5 and 8,5 he had extra help in kindergarden and school. Luckily that plus the evaluations is covered by the government where we live, otherwise we would never have been able to afford it all. (Norway)
That is great to hear your son is doing so well! Thank you for watching
But he speaks okay now?
That is exactly doctors never diagnose children before 2 years, whether it's for autism, cerebral palsy etc and this video is all kinds of wrong.

My son is almost 35 years old and he has PDD-NOS. I sure wish things had been different for him as he was in 5th grade before his teacher helped us get the guidance he needed.

My friends son is 4 years old and has been diagnosed with autism for about a year now and your videos help so much with learning new tools to communicate with him because he does not talk at all. I have been following all the websites you suggest and for the most part they are ABSOLUTELY beneficial. Thank you. You are wonderful.
where do you get your son checked for autism?
Thank you very helpful
My godson was slow to speak. There was a history of slow verbal development in the family. We had to wait a long time to get him assessed so he did not receive a diagnosis until age 3. There were lots of recommendations but no help available. His mom had a very hard time accepting the diagnosis because she felt that she had done something to make this happen (she hadn't, of course). She preferred to consider him learning disabled. However, he had clear signs of autism. To this day as an adult, he is able to speak but has significant difficulties with sentence structure both verbally and written. He requires supportive employment and is emotionally at risk for stressful events. This video. is awesome and all parents should be aware of these things.
Thank you for sharing. Happy to hear he is talking !
My daughter just had a reevaluation for her Speech Therapy and it looks like we’re going to go in to see if she might be autistic. Thank you for your video this is one of the videos that I chose to look at to get a little more Educated on what might be going on with my daughter. Very knowledgeable thank you.

Very helpful thank you...👍🏽
Happy you enjoyed it.
Thank you for your insight.
Glad it was helpful!
I wish there had been more information like this when my son was young. Preschool teachers said he was stupid. Only one teacher said he was highly intelligent but that yes something was being missed. It wasn’t until he was 10 years old when I read a random article about Aspergers that I saw how he seemed to fit the spectrum and finally had a neuropsychological exam and definitive diagnosis. He is 25 now, married with a son of his own and doing pretty well. I do wish, though, that early intervention back then would have known what to look for on the higher functioning end of the spectrum. I did my best raising him with the info available to me then, and even though my son is still struggling with some socializing issues, I’m glad that other kids are now being diagnosed earlier. Knowing the early signs to watch for and getting help early on really can make a huge difference. Thank you for this video.
Thank you for watching and sharing your story. You sound like a wonderful, dedicated mom!
