If birth History is normal and all other mile stones are normal for age, Then one should look for local cause Like tongue tie Or problem with the palate.
Next Steps

Health Tips
If everything is normal, as mentioned above, Parents should keep on talking to the baby by acting as a speech therapist. Few children Might speak late.
