What was your babies first words?

[Soubriquet]

Dd’s was dada despite me trying my best for mama. Dh was dead chuffed.

Ds on the other hand was mama.

DDs was "quack quack"

Mama for both - DH was slightly peeved 😁

Icky.

Ds fell while toddling and saved himself by putting his hands down on the muddy ground. He stood back up, looked at his hands, then held them out to me and said, "Icky".

😄

Thing is, icky was not a word we used - so where had he got it from? Unless it was 'mucky' in toddler-speak.

DS was Dada and DD was Mama

More hahaha

3 kids. Dada, dada and IPad.

I swear we are strict with screens so have no idea why DC3 came out with that.

Apart from babbling mama and dada, The first proper word that my DD used to say and I knew what she actually meant was 'up'. She used to say it whenever she wanted me to pick her up.

Hello

totally out of the blue one day

Lots of animal noises first but the first word she distinctly said was 'hay'

(We were at a farm)

Didn't say mummy until she was 2!

Car. And it's all he's talked about for the ensuing 17 years.

No and bath

DC1 - dada
DC2 - bear

"Mama" for both of mine.

Dada. But I don't think he knew what it meant. I suspect a lot don't.

Dada. But I don't think he knew what it meant. I suspect a lot don't.

I can’t quite remember which was first but it was either ‘ta-ta’ (goodbye) or Peppa, with mama fairly soon after

Duck and then quack when he was 10 months old.

Have a 4 week old so looking forward to the learning new things stage all over again!

Car.

it went on for a long time with Health Visitor expressing concern. He went on to become a complete book worm and is now at uni having a fab time!

Yeah I think that's just repetitious baby babble rather than an attempt to say a particular word with meaning.

Mine said flower and neigh.

Mama, then 'hi'.

Dada, but tractor was the first clear word reliably used in context. Then dog. Then hi and bye. Then mama. Bit rude really 😂

The dogs nickname

DC1 - mama
DC2 - Sis-ta

Girl twin, "dangle" as eldest DS used to tip her over his knee and say it. She just repeated it one day.

Boy twin "kaboom" as we put on a little fireworks display for their birthday. Which was quite remarkable as he said nothing else for months.

No! Said quite forcefully too.
