Eh, it's 2:30am and I'm more awake than I'd like to be, so I'm doing a spinoff of CNJ's post below.
What will your LO call you [and your SO, if he or she is in the picture] if you can help it?
I've been having an aversion to "Mommy" lately, so I think I'd prefer "Mama." [Part of me would rather go with "Ma" for pure entertainment and the old timey factor, but I can't commit to it.]
DS calls me momma and has recently started saying "ma", I don't know where he got that one from. Hopefully little man will follow in his big brothers footsteps.
Just traditional mommy/mama/mom and daddy/dada/dad, however he starts saying it. We have 2 dogs that we already say mommy and daddy for so it doesn't sound weird for us.
Growing up, everyone else referred to my mom as "mother"... "Wave bye-bye to your mother!" "Here comes your mother!" So even though I think of them as "mom" and "dad", I really called them mother and dad most during my life. Part of that
Our plans with our first child was Mom/Mama/Mommy and Papa for her dad (he is Swedish), but she is now 17 months and has her own plan. She calls DH Daddy and me by my first name! It is so weird. Hopefully she will break the first name th

Charlie never really called us mommy/daddy, it's always just been mom and dad. I'm assuming this one will be the same, since she'll always hear him say it.

Good question! Spouse is already referring to himself as "Daddy" in reference to her, when he talks to her and stuff, so I think that may be his choice, even though we've never actually discussed it. It is all still so weird to me- I haven't referred to m

DH calls his parents Ma'am and Sir (sounds way more formal and emtionally detached than it is... he's really close to both his parents).
I call my parents Dad and Mom (and depending on my mood: Ma, Mummy, Mum, Mama, Mother).

LOL- galspesh and Old Glory - that happens with my 2 1/2 year old way more often than necessary.
DD started off with mama, then mommy, now she calls me either mommy, very occasionally mom, and my personal favorite, mama, but in a southern accent.
This is exactly my kiddos, so I'm sure LO will f
