ExpertDr Mahesh PatilPaediatrician3 years agoA. Hello, your baby boy is 4 years old and he doesn’t speak properly but only monologues words like mamma and papa etc so see if he has a tongue tie
Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. 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.x
by 18 months if the child is not following basic commands then only you have to meet the doctor for speech and development assessment.
requiremexnt of speech therapy will also be discussed by your doctor.
