What should I do if my baby can't speak

  During the growth and development of babies, their language ability gradually develops with the development of big movements. However, some babies may not be able to speak even when they can walk or run, which can make new parents particularly anxious and worried. So, what if the baby can't speak?

  

What should I do if my baby can't speak1

  1. If the baby cannot speak, the first thing to check is whether there are congenital developmental abnormalities, such as congenital adhesion or shortening of the lingual frenulum, whether there is hearing impairment, etc. Therefore, specific reasons should be identified from these aspects first. If such factors have an impact, necessary treatment should be carried out, especially hearing impairment, which is a more important reason for babies not being able to speak.

  2. It is also necessary to consider whether there is no good language environment. Because babies are in the stage of language development, if there is not much language communication between family members and the baby, it will cause them to learn to speak later, resulting in delayed language development. Therefore, when searching for reasons that belong to this category, it is necessary to create a good language communication environment for babies, so that they can better imitate and learn to speak.

  3. There are also psychological reasons that can cause babies to learn to speak later and not like to speak. For example, babies with autism tendencies often have difficulty communicating effectively and are prone to developing a more introverted personality. So parents should also be vigilant. If there is such a tendency, targeted examinations should be carried out early. Early detection and intervention are necessary to ensure the healthy development and growth of the baby, and to better learn how to speak.
