Mum or Mummy?????

(Or Dad or Daddy?)

what do your children call you?

Joseph (5) calls me mummy but someone made a comment to me that they thought he was too old to call me that and I should be Mum now 🙁 I like being mummy, I know I can't be that for ever but at least for the forseeable future I would still like to be, he is my baby.

im still mummy

he did go through a phase a while back of calling me mum and i hated it 😀

izzy normally calls me mummy occasionally mum comes out when she not getting my attention and sometimes she calls me ellee and i turn around and tell her not to call me ellee im mummy not ellee to her and she stops and calls me mummy. my cousins little girl calls her by her first name alot of the time but i stop izzy dead and wont answer her until she calls me mummy or mum if she calls me ellee.

Jas went from mummy to mum to mumma now. I think whatever they like is cool 😎 There shouldn't be an age limit. I had a friend who was turned 30 who still called his parents mummy and pa and it kinda suited 😀

We wanted our daughter to call us by our real names. But the grandparents HAD to have it their way. They said it was "disrespectful". I don't see how disrepectful it is if the parents don't mind.

But we are called everything mom, mommy, mama, mother. dad, daddy, father.

Frank is Daddy and I'm Taddy (Tad means father in Welsh) with the boys, with Pippa we are both Doo, if Mike's wants our attention and he isn't getting anywhere he calls us by our first names, where as Jamie just calls us Pooey.

jami and catherine call me mum and ben still calls me mummy

The younger two (5 & 6) both still say daddy. The eldest (11) usually uses dad in public but frequently uses daddy when at home.

We both get called all sorts, it depends on Lolly's mood, lol 😉 I am mum, mummy, mama etc. Mike is daddy more often than not, but sometimes dad, or dada (especially if she wants something!) I don't think mummy is a problem at all at Josephs age hun. I really wouldn't worry. Let him use whatever he is comfortable with. Lolly went through a stage of saying Mike instead of daddy, i think it was because she didn't understand why she couldn't as she heard everyone else saying Mike? We just ignored it and didn't make a big deal over it and she soon reverted back to Daddy. Jake still calls us mama and dada. Tbh he has very few words at only 11 1/2mths lol Xx

Vic also calles us both mummy/mum, daddy/dad i dont mind as i know it will change when he starts school.Like you Alex i love being called mummy 😍

I'm mommy still most of the time and I want it that way for as long as possible 😉 Aaralyn calls me mom when she's "acting" and I'm the mom in the "movie" LOL... every once in a while I'm mama still 😍

my kids are 9 n 6 n still call me mummy lol

As far as I'm concerned my kids can call me mum or mummy whatever they feel comfortable with and they call me both. I wouldn't worry about the comments made to you kids aren't kids for long these days they'll decide when they feel too old to call you mummy

I still call my Mum 'Mummy' sometimes (what a silly comment!)
Martha calls me Mum/Mummy still - have even been Mama (mamar) a couple of times!!!!!

George uses either mum/mummy or dad/daddy. It doesn't worry us what he uses as we know we can't always be mummy & daddy and come later in the year he'll be at school and will probably use mum & dad more than anything.

Georgia-Mae uses both mum and mummy, dad and daddy.

I personally prefer mummy atm 🤔 but i am happy for her to call me whatever she feels comfortable with.

It's up to the parents and the little one what they want to be determined as - no one else!

she calls me mum or mummy. I'm a grown up and when I'm talking to my sister we call ours mummy! 😀

Mom or Mama for and Dad for DH 😍

i like mummy, let them call you that as long as you can! Wont last forever!
