A. Hello mom you need to stimulate her speech otherwise if once she gets into that habit, it would get really very difficult to get her out of it. Try to keep her among kids of her age. Let her interact with others , read some books for her. Try to engage in some conversation and if these things do not help. Try consulting a speech therapist.

A. encourage your baby is he or she repeat or even try. try making him say the name of objects . Describe for your child what they are doing, feeling and hearing in the course of the day.
