2 Answers

ExpertDr. Pandurang sawantPaediatrician4 years ago

A. hello Baby start to say monosyllables like ma, da at 6 -7 months of age. And Bisyllables like mama, dada, at 9-10 months of age Baby start to say 2 words at 12-14 months of age And jargon speech come at 15 -16 months of age. Baby can speak simple sentences of 2-3 words at 20-24 months of age. Some babys achieve these at early and some may be delay in achieving that. No need to worry for that. Spend more time with ur baby only Encourage ur baby to speak Avoid overcrowding of multiple languages at home to speak with baby Better to speak in mother tongue and teach that language to baby first
