Speech delay & not responding to name

Ay, mama, I understand your worry dahil pareho natin ang concern na yan, my cousin's baby had cleft palate din, at hindi rin siya responsive sa name around that age, kaya nag-start sila ng speech therapy right away at nakita nila ang difference. Definitely worth bringing up sa doctor or audiologist mo, kasi sometimes cleft palate can affect hearing or speech development, at the earlier you catch it, the better, walang masama sa pag-check, at least you'll know exactly what to do next. A few of us moms have found na once they got proper therapy, nakatulong talaga, so don't lose hope. When's your next checkup?
