Hi -
I also have a 3 year old girl that talks alot, but you cannot always understand her. We enrolled her in a local preschool and she is doing better, but we still made an appointment for an evaluation from our town.
I would call you school district and they can set up a formal evaluation at no cost to you. They will tell you if she needs extra help and also provide whatever help she may need, free of charge. It is a great system and she will really benefit from it. I wouldn't wait, because you don't want her to have problems when she gets to kindergarten. Also, don't listen to other people when they say, "she might be a late talker", because I did and I feel I could have done something sooner if I didn't. Also, I don't think you pediatrician will help you, because they are not trained in the area of evaluating children for speech delays, they will just tell you to call your town also for an evaluation. You are her mother and you know what is best for her, so if you are asking if there is something wrong, you must think there is.
Good Luck!

You can e-mail me if you want to talk further about it.
