When should my toddler start talking? i'm worried.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talking: By 9 months a baby should say mama, dada, baba nonspecifically. By 1 yr they should say words with intent (mama=mom etc).By 2 yrs they should be able to say two word sentences and use some pronouns (my car, you go, etc). They should also have a vocabulary of about 50 words. Between 2-3 yrs you should see huge gains in their vocabulary skills.Your pediatrician should be asking about iteachphysical
