Help please: What do your DDs call their 'ladies' bits'?

[eden263]

Sorry if anyone has asked this before, but what is the accepted term for little girls (and their parents!) to use to refer to their...um...'fanny'? I find fanny a bit inappropriate really and have no idea what to refer to it as, having only had DS before. My parents are both rather prudish and so 'down there' was never mentioned when I was little!

Currently potty training DD and have been referring to it as her 'bottom' but, of course, she wipes her actual bottom when I say that, quite rightly. But not helpfully.

I could make up a name for it, of course, but it'd be easier if I called it the same as everyone else so that if she needs to refer to it at nursery or school etc, people know what she's on about.

3DD's, we use bottom and "girly bits", can't stand people giving it stupid names!

Had the same problem in our house when dd1 was training - best we could come up with which did'nt make dh and me squirm was "front bum" -

Thanks

I call mine my front bottom, too, but have been laughed at by several partners in the past, so thought that was wrong.

I asked a friend IRL with a DD about it when my DD was born & she said they call it her fluffy. I'm so not going there!

Willies are so much more straightforward!!

My DD has two older brothers and keeps calling it her 'willy'. I tell her that it isn't a willy, but that upsets her.

fanny

we used to say front bum when she was younger (shes 5 now)

Bits. Front bottom makes it sound like there might be poo there! Have also told her the correct word is vulva for outside and vagina for inside.

Afraid its Mary Moo with the little ones in our house!!! Can't even remember where it came from. Yes, yes I know its wrong but we like it!

I had this conversation in RL yesterday and it occurred to me that not only do we not refer to it as anything in particular with dd, I cannot remember any name for it when I was growing up. I suppose it all came under the umbrella term of bottom but I certainly never felt any confusion.

I cannot abide any of the twee, sickly names given though; minnie, flower, fairy, twinkle are all names I've heard on here.

I'll give it a bump then, since there are 2 of us on the trail!

we call it foof...and I don't know why, and was determined not to have a sily name for it, but there we are... I think my SIL may be responsible for the name actually!

bottie - front, bottom - back. Worked for me, and my dd (7). Even ds has something to call it too!

I don't think we (dd1 age 9, dd2 age 7) call it anything!

Just a part of the general "bottom" region.

foo foo, or foo for short. Not sure where it came from, but seems to be fairly well understood amongst dd's friends. Not really for or against using the 'correct' terminology - it just happened. Suits us for now ( she's 4).

You can go for foo, tuppence, bits. My mum used to call it pinky which made me cringe a bit, even then.

We will be going for foo or bits with DD I think. Fanny seems a bit crude.

i quite like bajongo, from Scrubs, but don't have courage to actually call it that. Privates works for both ds and dd.

Fifi, (I have since realised this is also a tv character, but DD1 doesn't seem to notice! Plus it's not to embarassing when she uses the word in public!)

We call it her 'bits'. When I was little my mum called it my 'mick' or noon, no idea where that came from!

binky. Though I have No idea where this came from. I wash dd's hair in the shower these days, then let her get on with it. My parting comment is alway - "make sure you give your binky a good scrub - it;s important to keep it clean"

Bahookie. It's a scottish word for bum. Fine if you live in Scotland but maybe not so useful elsewhere.

Ha, I saw this in my list of threads I'm on, wasn't paying attention properly & thought you called your DD's bits her 'soupmaker'!! Now that would be original! But very gross!

We say "my underneath".
