Hi. This could be related to a defect in her social development milestones. How is your child’s eye contact? Does she look at your eyes when you talk to her? And does she continue to look at you until you finish talking to her? How about other developmental milestones? Like does she wave bye bye ? Does she say Mama papa ?
Next Steps
Visit a “developmental” Pediatrician - they are available in all “child development centres”
Health Tips
Better to go at the earliest because in case there is any defect in her social development it needs to be addressed as early as possible to have a good effect
