Not talking much
Hi sir/mam,
My son Manas is 1 year 10 months and having good understanding of things and he is reactive towards his name and any task. He remember things well. Can't see any abnormal behavior in him. Only few things
He will beat other kids and us by irritation
He has habit to bite
He cries lauder
He gets scared and will not go with anyone apart from family members... Even family members also he will prefer only me and his mom
His weight is 12 around
He used to pass lots of gas in first 6 to 8 months and used not to sleep on bed.. Sometimes not getting control for 1 to 2 hours... Keep crying... That's not happening now... Felt that was colic but not sure.
He started walking also bit late but we are more worry now as he should be talking more
We have given him BB phos for last 6 months. And calceria also.
Multivitamin was not given.
Please help as what to do for now that can help him to talk soon...
Generally if a child has achieved his milestones on time , can hear properly and has normal general understanding as seems to be the case with Manas , then an isolated speech delay needn't be much of concern . You just speak more to the child , read out colorful story books and encourage him to speak
As regards the other complaints like hitting , crying too loud may be normal temper tantrums of this age or may just be attention seeking activities . Either way you should not get too perturbed by them . Nevertheless if persistent you could meet with a Pediatrician who would be able to tell you in detail how to manage these issues
