Shaista TarannumMom of a 16 yr 5 m old boy3 years agoA. you will have to teach him to chew . if he has been eating mashed food till now then he will take time to learn to chew. but gradually he will learn.
One thing we must remember is that some children speak a little late compared to many other children. However if you feel baby is talking very less then better to consult your pediatrician itself once who can personally see the baby and guide you. She can refer you yo a speech therapist if required.
But what you must do at home is to talk to the baby and make sure the baby repeats after you. Repetition is the key in learning. You must make eye contact with the baby. Take the help of books and show him pictures and teach. This is a good way of learning.
