My DS13 once described to me the feeling of what it was like when he was very young, understood plenty of words, was able to hold the sound of a word in his mind, and yet, not quite able to make the sounds come out properly. He said that he would hear the sound and be so disappointed, and try to reshape his mouth and try again, but that the process was painstaking.
I wonder if the perfectionism/frustration starts that early?
I think that main thing is to enjoy your baby, and if she 'utters' something and you take your best guess, and she seems happy with the result, then you all win.
