So does your LO call you mama, or mommy, or whatever you call yourself? I thought by now DD would be calling me by my name (I usually call myself mama), but she hasn't yet. For example, my girlfriend says her LO has been calling her ("ma, ma, ma!") from his crib in the morning for months. DD doesn't do that yet, although sometimes if DH asks her, "Leah, where's mama?" she will point or look at me. Not every time, but sometimes. Oh, I should add that she does say mama, but just not to me. Not concerned, just curious.

Re: Does your LO call you "mama" yet?
after 10 weeks of bedrest for contractions and shorting cvx they arrived at 32 weeks!
After spending the last 2 weeks with LO (we were on "vacation") the hubs and I feel like we've deciphered LO's communication. He will happily crawl around saying dadadadada over and over if he is having fun. However, if he is hungry, upset or wants something he will whine mamamamama.
The only time he ever looked at one of us and said "da da" clear as day is when he was talking to me. Go figure. He also used to yell baaaaaaaaaaaa whenever he wanted me. Awesome.
DD has said, "Ma ma ma" for a while now. However, I recently realized that she only says it at mealtimes. When she wants MORE. Duh.
So no. But she says "Da da" all day long. And I'm fairly certain she is actually talking about him.
Us, too. We even try playing "where's mommy?" and "where's daddy?" She just laughs and looks around the room...She does understand "where's teddy?" though, so I know she gets the question, she just doesn't understand we are mommy and daddy.
This exactly.
Yes! This is what our DS does too!
