mummy_naqi,
baby girl not necessarily develop faster. My ayuni coming 13 months still belum walk pun... i will ask to crawl in the house to follow me, hahaha... language wise, i think girls naturally fast coz of our talkative nature. aahaha... but also need to continously feed them new words. Ayuni will sometimes say 1 syallabal words when she sees it or hears it. like bird, five, cat, nak, tak. she either knows the meaning or just repeating out nak/tak in our questions.
