POOJA KOTHARIExpecting Mom due in 1 month2 months agoA. Most babies start talking in stages. Here's a general timeline:
2 to 4 months: Cooing and making vowel sounds like "oo" and "ah." 6 months: Babbling starts—sounds like "ba-ba" or "da-da." 9 to 12 months: They may say simple words like “mama” or “dada” (not always with meaning). 12 to 18 months: Start saying 5–10 simple words with meaning. 18 to 24 months: Vocabulary increases, and they may start combining two words like “more milk” or “go car.”
Every child develops at their own pace, so if your baby is making sounds, responding to you, and trying to communicate, it's a good sign. If by 18 months, your baby isn’t saying any words or doesn’t respond to sounds, consult your pediatrician for a hearing and speech development check.
