First word... Should it count?

My daughter just started saying mom. To her I think it's just another sound she learned, but everyone else insist I count it in the baby book as a first word.

She's only been saying it when upset, she'll go "mom mom mom"

Opinions!!

  • My lo does the same thing when upset (something like ma ma ma). I like to pretend he's calling me, but definitely not counting it a first word.

    That's what I figured. I told people it's just a sound, and that she doesn't know what it means and they tell me it doesn't matter! lol Definitely going to wait before writing it in the baby book!

  • Hate to spoil your party but my son has been doing that for a few weeks now but I don't count it. The day he seems to understand what it means I'll count it but for now it's just a fun sound :) to each their own thought. His dad still thinks he's in the race for dad to be his first real word :)
