Warning signs of developmental delays include slowed progress in reaching key milestones such as speech, motor skills, social interaction, and cognition. These may appear as limited vocabulary, difficulty understanding instructions, reduced eye contact, or delayed walking and coordination. Other concerns include loss of previously learned skills or limited social engagement. While development varies, persistent or multiple delays may require evaluation by a specialist.
