Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
My daughter is 2 years old. Now, she is speaking only 3 to 4 words. She is not talking like other children. Please tell me if she has any kind of disorder. I have been to the doctor once and he told nothing to worry. After 2 years only they can speak. But my elder daughter spoke when she was 1.5 years old. I am so worried about her. Please tell me what to do. Her birth weight is 7.05 lbs and now she is around 19.84 lbs I think.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I got your concern. Based on the above history, my comments are:
1. I think she can listen and understand but there is a problem with expression.
2. Her weight is low according to age, so give her more energy rich food to gain weight.
3. Let her play with same age children, day care center or neighborhood children.
4. Do not confuse her with multiple language if you are speaking multiple language at home.
5. Sometimes, some children learn to speak late. So do not worry.
Just be vigilant. Watch her behavior. Follow up after one month.
