Hi Kritika, Multilingual children take a little more time to speak but once they pick up, they will be fluent in all the languages. In fact what you are doing is the perfect way to teach language. You are doing just great. Keep at it. Probably you can ask your husband to speak in one of the languages and you can alternate between the other 2(your mother tongue and one more) so it's easier for you and your child..

As Carol rightly said u could speak in two languages with your child while ur husband and rest of the members can speak in their native language with her . so she would know whom to answer in which language.

That's what we do, I talk in Kannada with my son, my hubby in Tamil and he is anyways picking up English at
