Sippy Cups are the Devil's Invention
I don't think I've mentioned it here, but Max doesn't talk much. He turned two last week, and has just a few words (Elmo, Zoe, Ernie, Mama, Daddy, etc.).
When we went for his two year appointment, the doctor was concerned. I think his exact words were "significantly delayed."
So, I of course starting freaking out, because I've been reading all about Amy's concerns over Noah, and it's scary. I don't want Max to have a label. My instinct is that he's fine. He'll talk at some point. But, he does get frustrated. And that worries me.
Well, Amy gets about 300 comments per post, so there is no way I have time to read through all of them, but she referenced one the other day that instructed her to get rid of all sippy cups. Apparently, sippy cups can cause speech delay. And Max has a habit of walking around all day like this:
Last Thursday, we stopped using all sippy cups. And, it could be a total coincidence, but Max has started talking more. We still don't have two words together yet, but he said tractor! And purple! And nana! And Uncle! And some other random things.
Why did I not know about the insidious dangers of sippy cups??? What the hell? I feel terrible.
