Hearing your baby say their first word, then string a few words together, then put together whole sentences is one of the most exciting parts of early parenthood. I'm looking for moms and dads to share stories about their babies' early forays into talking. What did your baby say? Did they start talking early, right on time, or a little later than you expected? What were your early "conversations" like and how did they evolve over time? These are just sample questions -- please share your fun, interesting, or insightful nuggets with new parents!
