You have a gorgeous baby and my heart goes out to you. Also, who's the hunk in the photos? Wo, but too young for me:) I have a book by Dr Sears and this is what it states re your concerns (approximate guidlines) ---- 6 -9 months -- Babbles random consonant-and-vowel combinations (ah, da, ba, ma, di, mu) and jabbers these sounds together. Adds tongue movement to change sound (ah-da). Consistently responds to own name. Uses arms to invite caregivers (raises arms to signal "pick me up"). ------------- 9-12 months -- Two syllable sounds (ma-ma, da-da), a__sociates sounds with right person. Understands "no". Imitates sounds: cough, toungue clicks. Understand gestures (waves bye bye).

Also, I would drop in unexpectedly more often than you do. Tell them you miss your daughter and took a break to come see her and will be doing so in the future. This way, they know that you will could come by at any time. If they are a decent group of people, they will understand a mother's concern and instinct to check on her friggin child. I would bring up your concern that she is not speaking and ask them how much time she spends in her crib.
