Mama?

What does/will your LO(s) call you?

I feel like there are other name options, but I can't think of them right now

I picked mom but they use them all, depending on their mood. Mom, mommy or mama mostly, for a day or two there my DD thought it was hilarious and called me "dear sweet mother".

Ds1 calls me mommy. Although, one day last week, he scratched a mosquito bite until it bled and came running for some first aid. I cleaned it off, put some neosporin on it, and covered it with a bandaid. When I was done, my 3yo turned to me and said, "Thanks, mom." Um, you're welcome, son.

The first time DS said mom, he was also 3! And it definitely sounded weird! He always calls me mommy, and now he will sometimes throw out mom because he thinks it is so funny, probably because of the reaction I had when I first heard him say it!

whatever he ends up using is just fine, but i love Mama. and not the spanish "mamá", but like Mama in a southern accent...because my dream is that LO will have a southern accent despite living in southern California. i just think kids with southern accents are so adorable 

sorry for the rant lol

I voted Karla because I couldn't help it.

DS most commonly says mama right now but he also says mommy too. I assume it will go to mommy then mom when he's older but I'll take what ever.

Mother does sound harsh. I can regularly be heard saying, "Do you know what your mother did now?," when calling my sister.

As long as he doesn't call me Mother F*&$*%*, he can use any of the others including Karla. 

My guess is it will be mama, then mommy and mom.

My kids call me Mama with the southern accent @narcissticbeaut loves because Texas.  They sometimes go through phases where they think calling me my first name is hilarious.

I voted Mommy. But I really wanted to vote "Karla". )



















Some of us have self control. *clears throat*

sort of related: one of my BFFs refers to her mom as Mom (instead of MY mom) when she's talking about her and it drives me nuts.  Like, "I was talking to Mom today and she said..." Ahhhh stop it!  She's YOUR mom, not OUR mom.  Say "my mom" dammit!  She does it with her dad too, and she'll say "I'm going to Mom and Dad's for dinner".  

This looks ridiculous all typed out but I stand by my feelings on this issue.

That drives me nuts too!

@MissDemeanor, you made me LOL at work.  Thank God I wasn't in the middle of interpreting something serious!  HAHAHA

 

I'm not nuts,...well maybe I am,  but he really does say it. If he continues to refer to me by my first name then he will need to start calling me Mama Karlsey instead :P

I've never heard it.  [-(

FFFC#1: I made this poll after reading the baby talk thread, obviously #2 I kept giggling to myself as I did it and checking to see when @Karlamo saw it

Also, I think that baby R should be calling you @Mamosey instead of Mama
