At what age a baby starts saying mummy or papa

Question

Accepted Answer

Babies typically say words like 'mama' or 'dada' by 12 months old, so if they're not quite that old yet, you might just need to wait a while longer. Once your baby reaches 12 months of age, try to be patient with them, and rest assured that once your baby can talk, they will talk.Babies may be babbling 'mama'/'dada' as early as 6 to 9 months,” says McWilliams. “The 'm,' 'p,' and 'b' sounds, quickly followed by 'd,' 'g,' and 'h,' are typically the first sounds babies babble. However, a first word is when the child assigns meaning to their babble.
