Mine was responding since 6-11 month, but lately I am not sure is it some development step where he is focused on other things, but he is mostly ignoring me when I say his name and we are next to each other, he will rather look at toys, play with other stuff, etc.
Hovewer, If I go to other room and say his name he will come immediately smiling at looking at me.
Otherwise, he met all the milestones except calling us, his parents. He constantly talks mamama,bababa,dadada,nanana but I am not sure does he understands the context. But on the other side, when he see a cat, he calls her kitt,kitt. He also already met 50% of milestones for 15 months.
I am very anxious person and worried due to this responding to name since Dr. Google says baby should always respond, so not sure is that literally the case. How is your experience?
thanks
