Stuttering

Question

Stuttering

Asked for Male, 3 Years

My kid was very talkative. For 2.5 years he used to talk a lot. For the last 3 months we observed he has started stuttering which was not there before. He was very fluent and used to speak nicely without any problem. Why all of a sudden this problem ? He is neither watching too much tv nor much screen time. Please help.
