Speech delay
Hi, my son is 3 years old and he still does not talk but just blabbers. Also he does not understand simple instructions. But when ever he needs something he will take our hand to point out at things he need or if he wants us to take him out he will take us near the door and and points our hand to the lock. When he was 1.5 years he had mid ear infection and post medication it was all fine. I again got the bera and impedance repeated yesterday and it's normal. When we call his name sometimes he turns back and sometimes ignores and keeps doing what he is doing. Eye contact is good provided we don't force him to look at us. When he watches you tube sometimes on phone he knows how to change the videos and also presses on skip add when ever there is an add. He is very active kid. We are so worried and wanted some advise which will put us at ease. Please requesting your advise on this if it's actually a speech delay?

PCV vaccine importance
Hello Doctor,
I have a kid of 16 month old...this query is regarding the administration of vaccine...We used to administer vaccine without fail in a private hospital until the baby turned 1 yr. But when we went to a different doctor to administer the vaccine for subsequent months, the doctor informed us that below 2 vaccines are missed and asked to administer it at 16th month.
1. Easysix
2. PCV (Prevenar13)
Question 1:
Since we have already adminstered separate vaccines for Diptheria, Tetanus, Pertussis, Hep B, Hib and Polio, please let us know is it necessary to again administer Easysix injection. I guess it is same as the 6 separate vaccines which was already adminstered. Please advise.
Question 2:
Please let me know whether PCV vaccine is really necessary. This vaccine is not currently in the govt list. So not sure whether this is really needed.
