POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. It's completely normal for an 8-month-old baby not to speak words yet. At this age, babies are typically in the stage of babbling and experimenting with sounds. They may make cooing or gurgling noises and may begin saying simple syllables like "ba-ba" or "da-da," but it is not expected for them to form actual words yet.
Babies usually start saying their first words, like "mama" or "dada," around 10 to 12 months, and their vocabulary will expand as they grow.
However, it's important to pay attention to other developmental milestones, such as:
Responding to their name Imitating sounds or gestures Eye contact and social interaction
If your baby is not babbling, making eye contact, or responding to sounds, it might be a good idea to consult with a pediatrician to rule out any potential concerns. But for most babies, talking develops gradually over time.
