Is it normal for a baby not to talk for a week?

Patient's question:

The baby started responding early; at seven months, she could call "Mommy," and by seven and a half months, she could call "Daddy." (After nine months, I got pregnant with my second child.) I don’t know when it started, but she no longer calls anyone by name. Now, she occasionally calls out "Mommy" when she’s crying, but when she’s called, she just stays silent. She can now occasionally say "Peppa," "sister," and "bye-bye," but that’s about it. The only other words she says are "I don’t want a bath" when it’s time for her bath. Most other babies her age can already have fluent conversations, and I’m so worried! However, she understands everything adults say to her! I’m asking all the experts to take a look at this—how serious is this situation?

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to explain your question. Is your baby 1 year old now? According to your description, your baby is only 1 year old now. A child's response and walking ability are different for each individual, so you don't need to worry too much. Communicate more with your child, and it will improve. If it's still the same as they grow older, you can go to the hospital for a face-to-face consultation. The above is advice for the question "Baby's response is actually quite early." I hope it helps you. Wishing you health!
