Grandma wants to be called Mommy

You’re not wrong to feel that way. I’d feel the exact same. That last sentence is exactly what I would tell her too.

Not overreacting, that’s ridiculous 🤣 stand your ground with it. If she wants a baby calling her mama tell her to have one lol x

Just making sure it isn't a language thing? In Cantonese paternal grandmother is maa4 maa4 which sounds like mama and mother is maa1 maa1 where the number are the tones. So it sounds very similar but the tones are different but to a non Cantonese speaker it would sound like I call both my grandma and mom mama

Either way being straight forward on your feelings would help

F*** ALL THAT! Honestly the baby will call them what they call them. But i find if you don’t put your foot down right away they’ll continue to push boundaries.

You could suggest letting her grandkids call her , Grammy , nana , gran or something easy

Tell her mom there is only one, they will learn to call her g-ma with time. The way they call her is not a priority ffs

Wow no ..it's wrong my lovely cx

Where the f do people get the audacity?!

If she’s that worried about pronunciation she should be called daddy as mummy is one of the last words they say! Plus my daughter with speech difficulties managed Nana really easily and went with “gra-dad”.
She’s happy to hurt your feelings though?

You're not wrong at all! I caught my mother trying to teach my daughter to call her mama instead of me. She wanted to be called Mimi at first, then started trying to get her to say mama instead. She tried to make it seem like she was just teaching her to say mama, but was saying how mama loves her and mama feeds her and mama sings to her. All while I wasn't in the room. Until I caught her doing it and told my baby come to mama and she tried to go to my mother instead of me. Your mother is not the mama. YOU ARE. And you should have to share that with anyone. It confuses the baby. Its okay to be hurt but the situation. But you have to set that boundary and explain to your S/O that this is something you won't stand for.

That’s weird.. my daughter gave my mother her name by accident. When she started talking I called my mom “grandmommy” and my daughter said “MiMi”. I said that’s even better. Maybe present the name MiMi and see what she says?

Sorry, but she has to keep her shit together. You are not overreacting. You are "mommy, mama, mami, mummy,... Etc". She is "Grandma, nana, etc" however you call a grandmother.
That's sounds narcissistic and very self-absorbed to me. Tell her your boundaries straight away. If she is disrespectful to you by not respecting your wishes and rules, no need to sugar coat her and worry about "hurting her by words". Also FIL... Same... He is the grandpa, not papa/Baba. Talk to your husband and tell him your boundaries and concerns. let your husband talk to his parents and set them straight.
It's so important to clearly communicate your boundaries. Will people be offended? Of course! Does it matter? No! Keep them straight and make them follow your boundaries otherwise they will always run them over and disrespect you

What culture is she ? My husband’s Nigerian and calls his grandma mama and his mam mammy

Just say no it’s not happening, you don’t want to share titles and leave it at that. You don’t owe her anything more. Y’all gotta stop letting people do what they want with YOUR kids.

My baby said Nanny before Mummy. What's wrong with Nanny?
