So I was speaking to someone close to me about mine and my gf’s plans on trying to conceive and she seemed relatively supportive. But had then asked what the baby would refer to us as, I said the baby would call her mum and me “maa” “amma” or “mamma”. She asked why I wouldn’t just be “mum” because the other terms are childish, they’ll get taken the piss out of at school and complained it was too confusing and unnecessary for the child 🙄. Obviously at this point I got offended reminding her that they are words for “mother” from my dad and grandparents native language and asked her to mind her own fucking business
Shit has gone down and it’s caused rifts in the family. I’m pissed off 😡
