A. 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 following basic commands then only you have to meet the doctor for speech and developsment assessment. requirement of speech therapy will also be discussed by your doctor.

A. You can motivate by speaking to ur baby frequently. You can tell the names of objects, ask questions, do role plays, read along with the baby, tell stories with actions etc., Half an hour screen time every day after 2 years of age can also help.
