Hello
If baby is having babbling, has eye contact, social smile, looking at his face in mirror smiling this is reassuring. Every mile stone can have a range of 1-2 months in all babies. Having face to face interaction, reading books will help.Bisyllables( mama,dada)will gradually develop during this time do spend much time with your baby.
