what do you call DD's private parts?

We call DS's privates 'willy' but I don't know what to call DD's!! Vagina just seems a bit clinical.
Suggestions for nicer terms gratefully received! I can't think of any.

Wow, I'm loving 'bulb of vestibule' as a fun and innocent alternative to 'willy'!

Out of interest, those vulva/ vagina users, do you have boys? What do you call their genitalia?

When growing up it was 'willy' and 'bits' but DH and I have decided on 'willy' and 'fanny' for now!

My son refers to his dinkle and acorns! he is 3. He says mummy has a flower!? When he's older we will explain the correct names etc.

Wow, Mummy has a flower, how did he figure that one? Brazillian? My ds's just say, "What's that hair?" and ds2 (2.8) calls it a 'spider'!!!

Did you use fanny with a 2 yr old?

vulva seems to be the new smug trophy for dealing with the female anatomy.

my mom always used the technical terms with us - which were vagina and penis back in my day.

she waved the smug trophy and killed herself laughing when I asked her why my best friend called them dinks.

MerryM - me yes - always used fanny with DD since we have needed to use a word (a year old? Something like that - once we'd decided what to call it).

Still smiling at Fanny house

DD has named hers a 'pink wally'. After declaring that her baby DS has a 'wally and tentacles' Grin
