| My son is 2 and a half. He is very behind with his speech and language. He says about eight words now, and his understanding is improving, although still limited. His coordination (gross) also doesn`t seem good to me. He was late walking (19 months) and is still rather wobbly and falls over quite a lot. He doesn`t jump or climb stairs. Any thoughts about whether he could be dyspraxic. He has seen a paediatrician who is referring him for speech and language and occupational therapy. Is there anything else we should do? Thanks
