#AskTheExpert My son is 10.5 months old. He is hitting all his physical milestones and is a happy, active child. Smiles, laughs in response, recognises people, has recently learned to kiss when asked. I am worried about his verbal skills though. He makes a lot of sounds while playing. Lots of Ooo-Aahs, some consonant sounds like ba, ka, ga, va. He has even said Amma, Appa, Avva, Buvva ...but it's very rare, like once in a few days. is this normal ? I was hoping he would start making double consonant sounds like ba-ba, ma-ma by now and make sounds more frequently.
