Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. proper language / speech development will start between 18 months of age to 3 years of age.
there is no need to worry before that just concentrate on the diet and regular interaction with the child.
also speech and language develops properly with more people available to interact with the child
avoid usage of tv mobile and laptop because they are the most common reasons for delayed speech and language development.
the most important thing is that before speech, understanding of the commands given by the parents should be present.
by 18 months if the child is not follsowing basic commands then only you have to meet the doctor for speech and development assessment.
requirement ofz speech therapy will also be discussed by your doctor.

Aditi SinhaMom of 2 children2 years agoA. Hi, please keep trying, give small commands to follow, teach one word by flashcards, use simple language (preferably one language to be used in home). also give ample story time to child. it encourage imagination and vocabulary.
reduce screen time, if baby ask something by sign language discourage and tell them to name it or ask for it and then only give. thanks
