What to do if i have a 3 year old who all the sudden started stuttering, what can cause this a little worried?

Relax. Don't put any: pressure on your child to "spit it out." Age 2-5 is the age of dysfluency. If it goes on for more than 6 months, have a Speech/Language Pathologist evaluate your child.
