Not started speaking
Hi Doctor, Even thought he is 2.3 years old. He seem to be less responding and not speaking any words. He only says two words ammi and abba that too out of context. We try to make him speak or hear to us. He does not respond. But his favourite songs or videos where ever he is he will respond and come closer. He also plays actively with his sister's. What should we do. Please suggest
