Atypical stutter in toddler going away

Atypical stutter in toddler going away Hey all — has anyone experienced or seen an atypical stutter in a toddler (2-3 years old) go away either on its own or through the help of an SLP?...

Wow, I'm sorry to hear that. You know when I was in elementary school, my Mom had evidently talked to a teacher about me and told me that teacher offered to help me. I said to my Mom just what your ...

I feel the same as you. When I first met my husband he would say it’s “cute”. I never liked when he said that but I would ignore it and play it off. Eventually we had many discussions about my strugg...

Yes. I am a dad to a 15 month old boy. I know boys are 4x more likely to stutter than girls so I know it's definitely a possibility. Stuttering is not something to fear. The fear of stuttering is wors...

I'm 25 and my parents never took me to a speech therapy. I started to speak very late in my childhood many thought i was dumb but after tips and tricks by parents i started to speak at the age of 5 . ...

Hey, welcome. ¿How old are you? It´s not healthy that your family teased and judge you for stuttering. They are the people you spend and will spend the most time with (probably). Very close enviromen...

Do you remember when your kids first noticed you have a stutter?

Do you remember when your kids first noticed you have a stutter? I’ve been stuttering more lately I think due to a tooth infection or who knows. Last month, my 7 year old son caught on that I was stuc...

Everyone will have their own thoughts on those two questions, but for me; 1. No. I would avoid acknowledging the stutter at all. I have a stutter but it was really bad as a child but as I grew older ...

You are so lucky you don't have to worry about it anymore, even when you still stutter. Thanks to your supportive father. My parents didn't care if I stuttered. They were better things to think about ...

My three year old has a stutter.

My three year old has a stutter. He doesn't really care now because he is a child. I don't want him to have the unpleasant experiences I've had all my life as a stutterer. I want him, like every paren...

Something like 80% of kids who stutter outgrow it. Odds are it may well disappear on its own with or without intervention. I think the worst thing which could happen is for him to become too focused ...

im 13 and if Google is anything to go by, people usually grow out of a stutter at age 5 so i think I'm fucked...

Love hearing this story so much. My son stutters sometimes and others times he doesn’t. He stutters a lot when meeting someone for the first time. Once he knows someone doesn’t stutter at all. Yes, st...

Brand new severe stuttering in a 6 year old

Brand new severe stuttering in a 6 year old Hey all! I need perspective and advice. My 6 y/o has developed a severe stutter over the past couple months. Neither parent has ever had an issue. No family...

He seems to understand some things. Like if I say do you want water, he’ll open his mouth and look around for the cup. Or if I say time to go down, he’ll sometimes look down and brace himself to go on...
