Just having a laugh with the kids as DD4's first word was Cheese!

She had done the usual babbly stuff and we did all the usual "Oh that was dada, that was mama" thing, but the first honest to goodness word she said that we recognised without a doubt was Cheese! Luckily it was a weekend and we all heard it otherwise I dont think anyone would have believed me!

She was in her high chair, I gave her her lunch and said "ooh cheese!" and she said it right back. It was her favourite food, still is!

Hit me with your weirdest first words!

My DD’s first word was ‘mine’ (usually applied to food) and her second was ‘ham’ which she used for meat generally 🤣 she is now 5 yrs old and still fairly obsessed with food! My other DD’s first two words were ‘baby’ and ‘Teddy’, Teddy meant furry animals generally, she is now 9 and wants to be a zookeeper

i was at playgroup with my son and he was trying to get a biscuit from my friend. She said to him if you can say biscuit I will give you it and he said it clear as day! Was very funny! She was gutted she had to give him her biscuit! I’m sure he was under 1 and ironically was a late talker!

My DD’s first word was ‘more’. The first time she put two words together it was ‘more cheese’

Love that! We had 'door' - considering we lived in a tiny flat with about 3 doors total I was impressed 🤣
