My 2 years old daughter can’t speak properly like her same age toddlers, she can pronounce many difficult words, but she have no meaningful words. I have consulted many doctors including speech and language pathologist, psychoanalyst, psychologist, ENT, etc. But no one is seeing any problem to her. She is slightly hyperactive in nature, she use to run from one room to another for a long time but she use to spend a long time also watching colourful books. She use to eat her meals sitting on a chair. She loves listening her favourite songs repeatedly but can’t express any of her feelings or needs verbally or she can’t point things out. The only thing she use to do is crying. She starts crying when she is hungry, she does the same thing when she wants to listen a song once more. This is the situation I’m totally confused about what to do. Please help. Regards…..

This is a good example of why it's not a good idea to compare kids to others.
What do you mean, she can pronounce difficult words, but no meaningful ones?
If you have consulted that many different kinds of doctors, and none of them saw a problem, I think you can safely go ahead and assume she's not as delayed as you think.
I have yet to meet a toddler or preschooler who is not hyper. I have two kids, two nieces and two nephews. The layout of my mom's house is that you can see the entire length of the house when you walk in the front door. Two of the kids are infants, but three of the boys (ages 4 and 5) loves running back and forth the full length of the house... they do this almost the entire time we get together over there. My little just-turned-2-yr-old niece tags along the best she can. Kids are kind of known for the "hyperactive" activity you are talking about. They have near zero attention span, so they get bored and when they get bored, they get hyper.
Because she doesn't have the language skills yet to express herself and her needs (virtually no 2-yr-old does), she gets frustrated and cries.
Work with her on language. Keep a running commentary throughout the day ("What do you want to wear today? The pink shirt or the blue one? Yeah, I like the pink one. Here we go, putting it over your head. Where's ___________? Oh, THERE she is", etc.) Point out everyday objects, associating the name of the object with the object itself. "Read" to her. It's okay to sacrifice the story for the other benefits at that age. Her attention span probably doesn't allow for her to follow the story, anyway, so point out the pictures, describing them.
Please stop taking your baby to doctors over this. None of them seem to think there's a problem, and they all have more experience really knowing the toddler population than you do, so they recognize what is normal and what is not.

19 months remains very youthful in terms of speech progression. My 3 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous has a huge vocabulary (she speaks further to a 5 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous in accordance to her preschool instructor) yet basically reported a handful of words at 19 months (ie mama, dada, ball, e book and perchance some greater). i replaced into in touch that she regarded plenty further in the back of her classmates who have been speaking in words and a few short sentences already. yet she replaced into purely sluggish to get the words out. I knew she could desire to appreciate each little thing yet purely did not verbalize for an prolonged time. i think of what did it for her replaced right into a million) it replaced into purely her way of doing it and 2) her being in a social putting which inspired her to talk extremely helped. Like I reported, she is plenty some distance previous the place she could desire to be for her age now yet we had a sluggish initiate. not something replaced into incorrect although...it replaced into purely how she did issues. If I have been you, i could wait till he's closer to 2 years previous (a greater valuable milestone for speech) and if he remains not verbalizing, have his listening to examined and his speech evaluated.

She's two years old...All children grow and develop at their own pace, quit trying to make her keep up with other children. Quit comparing everyone else's child with your own. The doctors are right, there is nothing wrong with the child...the problem is with the parents. The reason she cries is because her parents respond to her crying and give her what she wants. Stop responding to her crying and she will be forced to talk...This is what happens when the child is obviously more intelligent than the parents.

Contact early childhood intervention and see what they say. Its in the social services of the yellow pages or connected with your local MHMr (mental health/mental retardation)facilities

2 year olds get frustrated when they don't understand their feelings and don't know how to express them....pay attention to her cues...she may be communicating in more ways than you think
