When do kids start saying I love you? Although DS will repeat it after us he hasn't said it spontaneously yet. I wouldn't say he's overly affectionate he loves to be carried, his version of a cuddle is to put his head on your shoulder and I can't remember the last time he kisses me spontaneously. He's very lovely and communicative and very very sweet but It would be nice to hear him say I love you. Are my expectations too high? X
