Accepted Answer

My baby is on the same boat. He says nothing other than "Amma". There is a role of genetics too. If her maternal/paternal uncle/aunt had this condition of late speech (like in my case), then chances are likely the genes to get passed on to the next generation and it is quite normal, if that's the case. But if that's not so, better consult a child psychologist.
