I think it's okay. My son started babbling at 5 months, but did only for two weeks then stopped completely. I never knew why, but once the doctor asked if he was babbling and I said no and and my husband said said yes, I start to reintroduce it by my babbling sounds myself like ma mama... da dada... ba baba... pa papa...etc. Also, saying vows to your baby is very good AEIOU, helps them with speech later on and and encouages to wan to say them too.

I wouldnt be too worried. Most peds will just tell you that babies develop at different stages. Your baby may start to babble one day while another, born on the same day, may start two months later.

I wouldnt be too concerned. Doctors judge Preemies on when they where supposed to be born not when they were born. Some babies are just a bit quiter all together. But if your concerned talk to your pediatrician.

I think she is alright. My daughter was early too. And she doesnt babble either. I wo her would just keep on talking to her and Reading to her everyday. Tell her what you are doing.
