A. Hello. Does your child have adequate eye contact and response to name skills ? If yes but the words or babbling is less ? What you can do at home:- @ Read to the child regularly @ Talk in 1-2 word phrases like come here, let's go, up, eating, catch ball etc @ Always look at the child while talking @ Keep one language @ Describe whatever the child is doing in short phrases The timeline is as below for speech development. • 6 and 9 months - babies babble in syllables, start imitating tones and speech sounds. • 12 months, a baby's first words usually appear. • 18 months to 2 years children - around 50 words and putting two words together. • 2-3 years, sentences extend to 4 and 5 words • 3 up - talk like an adult. If not according to above, PLEASE VISIT A SPEECH PATHOLOGIST IMMEDIATELY TO SEE and DISCUSS THE SITUATION.
