A. What helped(and helps)me was reading age appropriate books to my child everyday(seriously since age 7months). Also I did not show any tv or mobile till he turned 1 yrs old but now it is not possible to keep him off screen(only tv) if he is at home on holidays. I show him Songs for Littles(Miss Rachael show) only on tv and also send him for 3 hrs to a playgroup. We also talk a lot to him( my parents presence helps too).The more people/ children he hears, the more he gets exposed to speech. But I also know about COVID babies who did not go out during that time and became reliant on tv/ mobile and by age 2-3 barely speak now. They are undergoing speech therapy under an expert. I suggest stop screens(specially mobile) and interact and read loads of books to your child 3 times or more a day. Switch to a tv screen instead of mobile and show Miss Rachael show(u will get some tricks and tips on how to teach them to get speaking). Doctors on this panel give bare minimum advice. They keep suggesting you to consult them or ask your doctor. So giving you this advice based on my experience ( from one mum to another).

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 yhuears of age . just make the child comfortable and do more interaction with the child so that he can learn to speak sentengces 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. You should not show mobile to the child not screen time because it is actually very unhealthy for the child for overall growth and it can actually hamper the verbal and mental growth of the child as when your child is only learning what your child is seeing on the screen which is why your child is unable to strike a normal conversation you have to stop giving mobile to the child and have one to one conversation and play with those toys which are associated with education if you want to teach Thing
