A. Children typically begin to use meaningful words between 12 and 18 months of age. By the age of 2, most children can say a variety of words, including names for familiar people, such as "mama" or "mommy." However, the exact timing can vary widely among children. If your daughter hasn't yet started to call you "mother" or a similar term, here are a few tips that might help encourage her: 1. **Consistent Naming**: Consistently refer to yourself as "mother," "mommy," or whatever term you prefer, and encourage others to do the same. 2. **Repetition**: Use the word frequently in various contexts so she associates it with you. 3. **Positive Reinforcement**: Encourage and praise her attempts to say the word, even if it's not perfectly pronounced. 4. **Interactive Play**: Engage in activities and games that involve naming family members. 5. **Reading and Singing**: Books and songs that include family names can reinforce these words. If you have concerns about her speech development, it's always a good idea to discuss them with her pediatrician. They can provide guidance and, if necessary, refer you to a speech therapist.
