Q. $AskTheExpert My 1 year 15 days old walks independently, says few words, gets object when named or say name of the object when she sees it in images or in real without pointing at it. she recognizes her name and understands basic instructions. when she needs something, either she gets herself or leans in tht direction with hand extended or will simply say de de. she makes us understand her needs through gestures, sounds etc. but she does not point to objects or pictures when asked. worried please suggest.
