hi maureen, lucky baby!! yes, you can use your own signs or a slight variation on one you learn from a book or one of the web sites above that show a number of very basic signs. be sure to teach the sign to all close family members because sure enough the day will come where a babysitting grandma/aunt/close friend or sitter will say to you, “he/she kept doing this whith her hands while you were gone and i couldn’t figure out what he/she wanted!!!…” and you’ll be glad you told them ahead that your baby is talking to them in a special way. using universal signs makes it easier for you to just print the sheets up or leave the book so others can understand what your little einstein is saying also, notheriing cuter than seeing two sighing kids communicating with same universal signs on the playground…and it is so common right now you will see this. we didi and it was 5 yrs ago. talk about cute…my daughter asking her friend…”more?” when sharing a treat at 19months…i’d go with standard signs whenever possible but variations and/or homemade signs can work just as well.

Thanks for this post. I never signed with my first four kids, I hadn’t even heard of doing such a thing. I really want to with this one though. I’ll check out the books you recommended. Have you ever heard of parents making up their own signs (still using the same sign every time of course)?

When I need to look up a new word, I use http://www.signwithme.com. It includes a video with many of the definitions/instructions.

I had a great time with the signing time videos and my daughter learned 400 signs before she was 2! She was speaking in full sentences early and we had a great time signing at the playground while other moms were yelling at their kids…:)
I wrote an article about my experience which was published several places. You can read it at my link above.
