I have an adorable DS nearly 4 weeks old and I am very aware that talking to your LO has a great impact on their language and speech development. I am a quiet person and although I am making a great effort to chat to him, I feel a bit daft, that I'm talking just for the sake of it (which i am) and my patter is drying up! I talk to him about what we are doing or going to do next, who we are going to see and we have a sing song to the iPod at nappy change. He looks at me so earnestly when I'm talking to him (yes I know it's probably wind and poo concentrating!), it breaks my heart that I feel I'm struggling to find things to say and just shit chatting to him. What do you chat to your tiny LO about?
