Premature birth can lead to some developmental delay, but this should not by itself be a cause for worry. Instead of looking at one specific behaviour of the child, look at him as a whole person. If he relates to both parents warmly and generally enjoys playing with other children, you should be happy. Speech develops at different times for different children. Talk to him, read story books to him, play music, specially rhymes and songs and make his speech environment more interesting. If you have a suitable person (a Psychologist or Counsellor), you should consult him about your child. Improvement will be gradual, once a delay has set in.
Nursery school admission may also help, if the programmes are not too academically oriented. All the best.
