Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.

It seems your child is having developmental dysfluency. It is normal in preschool children.

It decreases as the age increases and resolve by the school age.

But this condition needs to be differentiated by stuttering or stammering which needs intervention.

Consult the pediatrician to assess his speech and for further intervention.

Hope I have answered your query.

Regards.
