So how much of a mad woman do you sound?

[NogginOfRum]

Sometimes i hear myself talking and think good god woman you sound like a loon!

So anyone else care to share the embarrasing mumbojumbo they use when talking to their DCs.

I'll start:

Socky-docks

sleepy-peepies

jimmy-jammy-jews

Snoozy-snoo

Why i can't just say socks, bedtime, pyjamas, and sleep, i really don't know

I can't be they only loon here

I say "coat and tie" as a term of endearment to DS

Its worse when you have an accident in public and start yelling 'oh figs' or 'deary meary, is that blood? that really is oucy wouchy. Mummy has a boomba'.

We now call olives 'ovalas' after our 4 year old decided that this is what they are really called.

we also have sleepy beepies.

i spout all sorts of rubbish but was very embarressed when a teen fell off his bike and i loudly went 'upsy daisy'.im 30 btw not 60.i didnt know him and am shy.

oh and i noticed a friend had a bruise and asked how she got her boo boo.

i must remember not to talk to adults.

dd has 'knicky knacking noodles' for knickers

sorry - 'knacky'

I say:

Yum Yum = meals

Quick Sticks = get a shift on

WHOOPSadaisy upyouget = come on it didn't hurt let's get going

Even in the company of adults I can't call play dough, play dough. It always comes out as 'pat-pat'. People do indeed look at me like a loon!!

haha brilliant

I say 'oh dear did you bump down?'

'Bump down' how cringy does that sound?!

I must never ever speak again i think

We watch deevee-deevees.
Haven't the heart to tell DS2 its D V D.

oh we have dbds

We have Chewpinger (cucumber) and we live near the Spinacher Tower (Spinnaker Tower).

ds1 used to like hairywoof(canary wharf).
hammersmith is hairysmith(apparently not related to hairywoof though)

and dobwalls a localish theme park thing was called dog balls.

i love children

lol Jacobs princess, we also have dvdvees and cumdooer (cucumber), though I guess I'm not so good at the 'oh deary me's' cos ds fell off the roundabout in the park and said 'oh, for f**ks sake'

knicky knacky noos here (no idea what noodles are )
jimmy jams
opsy pops - loosely translated as 'get up the stairs we're late again'
and of course 'uppa get' after crash, followed by 'brush brush' (stop bawling and wipe your hands)
i'm really worried about dog balls...

I call socks "smellys" so I can often be heard saying "get your smellys on boys!"

jimmy jammy jews and knicky knacky noos are popular here, along with smelly melly (when refusing to get in the bath), snotty mcgrotty, and yucky mcgrucky

Oooo i used to love Dobwalls as a child...never thought to call it dog balls though Oh if only i was a child again!

Have a little brother with SN who couldn't say 'crips', only 'pss pss pss' so thats what crips were know as for many years when i was younger

I say likety split when I mean hurry up - no idea why - maybe it was on a film.
trousers are trollywallydoodahs
too many to mention - am a loon though

God knows how, but we have ended up calling knickers "panty-girdles" (said with a "Swedish" accent ). I'm 99% sure DD has confused the nursery staff with this.

georgiemum - we have "obalids". I caught an exasperated DD enunciating v clearly to her confused Granny "I'd like some Ob-A-Lids" grin]

Ha dilemma. I'e done exactly that - only it was about a big crane .

DOn't really use baby words - only the odd ones that the children invented themselves.

pmsl @ ClareVoiant

DS is too little for the babytalk just yet but i have noticed that he already has an impressive range of nicknames - pigeon, sausage, grizzly adams, miseryguts, grumbly gus, little puss, little man etc. etc. in fact, quite often i've found myself struggling to remember what he is actually called

he's only 3...

I do find myself saying 'last one to the top of the stairs is a wibbly wobbly head' though...
