When did your DC start calling you 'Mum' instead of 'Mummy'?

DS is only just 4 and recently started reception. He went through the phase of discovering his parents have first names about 4-5 months ago, and was trying that out, but soon when back to 'mummy' and 'daddy'.

In the last week, he's starting calling us 'Mum' and 'Dad', and I don't like it! He's only 4, surely 'mummy' doesn't get permanently dropped this young?

I'm not ready to be 'Mum'!

DS1 is 13 and still calls me mummy Blush

People think he's terribly posh whereas he's actually just never thought to change it as the others call me mummy too.
