My Daughter delivered twin girls in March 2022. One baby was normal at birth. The other baby at birth was underweight and had cleft lip and cleft palate. This child underwent surgery for Cleft lip in June 2022 and for Cleft palate in Dec 2022. As of now (Aug 2023) parameters in respect of Height, weight, and physical growth are all normal.
While the child that was normal at birth has started to walk and is able to utter few words, this child stands up on her own holding a support and walks few steps with support. The child is not able to walk on her own without support. Likewise, she screams, makes noise but is not able to utter words.
Her timings for Sleep, food, activity are all normal and response level is satisfactory.
When will she start to walk on her own and begin to utter words? Any special exercise to be given as support? Pl advice
Ans: She has to be assessed for her milestones and development
