Good evening this is very normal phenomenon there is nothing much to worry about your son's developmental milestones. some children learn to speak early some children learn to speak late. similarly some children can walk or run fast and some children will take around 18 months to do the same. as long as his appetite is normal and his language and communication skills are normal there is nothing much that you need to do
Next Steps
you can give him calcium and Vitamin D supplement that'll help him observe the child for 3 months if it doesn't improve please get him to the clinic
