A. Regarding Speech Baby usually start mono syllable by 6 to 7 months of age then by syllable words come by 9 to 10 months of age then by 12 to 14 months of age baby say two to three words followed by jargon speech at 15-16 months . child can start saying simple sentences by two years of age . just make the child comfortable and do more interaction with the child so that he bvcan learn to speak sentences properly. if the speech does not comes even by three years of age you need to consult your doctor for a proper assessment of the child .

A. it is ok for now .Language is a long process to become good . Initially kids only say some meaning less words . You should talk more with baby and decrease screen time specially mobile screen . Also help of any speech therapist can be taken .
