Has anyone's toddler gone backwards with speaking

My son used to speak extremely clearly and knew lots of words but now he just babbles and makes noises. I am unsure if it's because he's started nursery or because of his younger sister but it seems like as the next month comes he's going backwards development wise. Has anyone got any advice?
