How Your Baby Starts to Communicate With You With Thanks to Dr. Lin Day and Baby Sensory.

Happy Talk

It’s amazing but babies can understand individual words and simple sentences even before they can talk. They can also learn more than one language! 

Babies love to communicate with us and start to do so long before they can master talking – by crying, smiling, cooing and gesturing.

The way a baby learns language is really interesting;they start with the basics and progress to more complex ways of communicating during their early months. Of course, a newborn starts without any ability to talk at all and they are at a disadvantage when trying to tell their parents what they need. However, by three months your little one can start to tell the different sounds of speech apart.

With understanding comes the urge to communicate, so your baby will start to build up a repertoire of cooing and gurgling noises. By the time they reach six months, it may be possible for them to make simple sounds and repeat them, such as ‘ba-ba-ba‘ and ‘da-da-da’ and at the age of one year, some babies can say a few words. All babies learn to talk at different times, with some forming words as early as nine months and others not until well into their second year.
