My 9 month old son does not say ma, pa, ba, yet..He keeps on saying aaa aaa, he is very active, crawls well, and stands by holding furniture.
Is he having speech delay? When can I expect him to say these words? Please suggest

I understand you're worried about your baby's speech development. The absence of monosyllables like 'ba' or 'da' is not considered a speech delay. At this age, babies are just beginning to explore sounds and develop pre-speech skills, and it’s perfectly normal for this process to vary. As long as your baby is making other sounds, responding to your voice, making eye contact, and showing interest in communicating in their own way—such as through coos, laughter, or gestures—they are on the right track. Speech development is a gradual process, and we’ll continue to monitor it over time, but there’s no cause for concern right now.

If there are concerns like lack of eye contact, no response to sounds or name, or other missed developmental milestones please contact.
