ExpertDr.Rasika ThosarPaediatric Intensivist7 years ago

A. you should not do such things !! by 1 year baby will be saying monosyllables atleast. it will improve eventually, and by 2 years baby should be able to follow simple commands and should speak 2 word sentences. by 3 years it's 3 word sentences. may vary a little

ExpertDr. Swapnil SaxenaAyurvedic Physician7 years ago

A. hi no not so it's nothing like that. every baby is different in achieving milestones so don't worry about it let baby explore things gradually in his own way. keep baby well hydrated exclusively breast feed your baby for the first six months after birth

Albin C SFather of a 6 yr 7 m old boy6 years ago

A. yes it's good.. rub vasambu on ammi and take that powder and rub on baby's tongue. it will get rid of vomiting , stomach ache.etc..

Dr Sameer awadhiyaFather of a 12 yr 9 m old boy7 years ago

A. no this is absolutely wrong nothing need to be done for baby to speak like this if you want interact with your child properly so that he could learn the things and will speak accordingly do not do any such home remedies because it may have some complication sometimes
