15m ds2 makes me giggle. Sometimes he calls my boobs "Moet" (as in Moet et Chandon, only I think for him the name comes from "more") and sometimes he calls them "nana" (as in "banana"). "Nana" is what he calls all his favourite foods.

D'you think I could train him to call them "Bollinger"?

So, what does yours call yours?

Num Nums - I chose to use it as most people think that he's saying mum mum when he's patting me affectionatly on the chest.
A friend is trying to get him to call them gin and tonic.
LOL at Moet !

snap, cmot

except that she's too young to call them anything yet, so my dh and I use num nums in the hope she'll pick that up in time. Thought it might be marginally less embarrassing than "Boobs" if she shouted it in the street...

Believe me, I did not teach him to call them bnanas!

Until a few weeks ago they were "Booey", which was what dh and I were saying. But I guess the little fellow has a mind of his own.

Both boobies and bogies get called 'bobies'. This can lead to confusion.

My dd asks for 'aba aba' - this originated from the sound she made when 'pecking' (bouncing her mouth and chin) on my shoulder wanting a feed, sometimes quiet violently! When she finishes a feed, she smiles at my breast an says 'titty'. I use this word as it is similar to the Polish word I used as a child (chi-chi).
