I actually have been in touch with EI and they did a preliminary evaluation of her and said she was on track. But I think that she should be showing more interest - it is like she does not even care to communicate. LOL.
I understand the concern. My dd didn't have a lot of words until she was 18 mo. Before that it was maybe a handful. So long as she understands what you are saying to her, I think you are fine. If she doesn't seem interested in talking, do her older siblings do a lot of her communicating for her? I know my brother spoke less and later than I did because I spoke for him a lot.

Ugh, sorry you are worried. When DD was that age, she would do the same crap. She would recognize & say words, then pretend it never happened. It was like she checked it off her list. Been there, done that, moved on. Ugh! So frustrating! But then she eventually just popped all of them out, and put them in sentences & all was fine. That interim part was maddening. I hope she starts talking & annoying the crap out of you soon!
