Question

The child has only 7 teeth when speaking, and their walking is unstable. Their walking posture is not very good, with their feet spread apart, and they have not yet stood up straight when they have not yet gained stability. An X-ray was taken before, and the doctor said there are no problems with the bones, recommending the supplementation of calcium. What could be the cause of this situation?

Answer

There is no need to worry about this situation; each child’s growth and development pace is different. Some children may speak and walk later, which is all normal. Parents do not need to be overly concerned. In daily life, you can communicate more with the child, let them eat more foods that require chewing to train their chewing ability. When it comes to walking, there is no need to rush; just let it happen naturally. If the teething is slower, you can appropriately supplement calcium. Lastly, wishing the baby a healthy growth.
