Speech related
Hello My son is 21 months old but hardly speaks anything. The only word he speaks is mumma and that too very occasionally. Is this normal at this age or should I do something about it. TIA

Hello kindly consult a speech therapist. Try to interact with the child more often, let him play and mingle with other children of his age group.
