14 month old development

[maya2027]

My 14 month old boy was a preemie by 1 month.  He is not walking yet and only babbles mama and dada.  Also, when he gets excited, he bites the back of his hand very hard and throws his head forward.  Although we can stop him from doing this if we intervene right away, it looks weird!  Are these biting episodes and lack of walking and talking a sign of something wrong?


This discussion is related to is my one year old 'normal'?.

Alot of children walk after 14 months old, and actually babbling Mama and dada is good, when he bites his hand he is showing frustration at something prior to that, what happens that makes him do it, when you see him start to do that Distract him with a game or a Toy do not make an issue out of it., sometimes children do negative things because it gets them attention.
