1yo keeps calling Ms Rachel "mama"

Is it just because Ms Rachel says "mama" a lot? Or does my child really think that's her mama?

My 19 month old is in a phase where everyone is Mama, except me...I'm apparently dada šŸ« šŸ˜‚ i wouldn't worry, they know who their mama is, the word just isnt as associated with us properly yet

My toddler used to call all her friends mum’s mama because her friends called them mama. I wouldn’t think anything of it! It’s probably the can you say mama song!

… also my toddler sometimes calls me jaimmie because she’s learned it’s my name and she knows she shouldn’t šŸ˜‚ she’s got a wicked sense of humour. Whenever I call Scott up the stairs to my husband she mimics me… maybe more mocks me. Either way it’s hilarious.

My son learned the word mama from Ms Rachel, when I tried to explain that that word means ME, he started saying ā€œNANANANANAā€ and hasn’t gone back to the M sound since and it’s been like a month 😭😭 I feel TEASED

She probably thinks Ms Rachel is A mother. Not HER mother. My toddler referred to women as mommies and men as daddies for awhile. Your baby knows that you are her mother

My son won’t say mama but he will say doctor for Dr Pepper. šŸ™„
