Brief Answer:
Nothing worrisome.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The weight of the baby is normal. if the baby can do all other activities normally like walking running understanding her mother's instructions then speech is not a problem. Some children are shy by nature and develop speaking skills later. Try to allow the baby to interact with other children of his age. This will help him learn speaking earlier. No need to worry. it is just a normal variation. You can get him examined by an ENT specialist to be sure and to rule out any other pathology.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

No need to worry.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
if he is active and is doing all other activities normally then you need not worry. Speech therapist is not needed right now. Putting him in child care will help in drastic improvement. He will get good company there.
