Anxiety Over Baby's First Words?

Almost every parent can remember that first proud moment they heard their baby speak. But speech development can cause its share of parental anxiety -- a milestone to obsess over, and another way that competitive parenting can rear its ugly head.

Babytalk anxiety: Those first little words cause big stress for parents [2]

Has anyone felt this anxiety over baby's first words?  I know that I did with all 3 of my kiddos!  Is your baby saying words yet? Are you at all concerned about their development in this area?
