When did your baby say Mama

When did everyone baby say mama, mummy... my little boy is 13 months now, he says dada, nan, says the animals names, animal noises and even shouts Jessica. Everytime me and my partner try mama he just stares at you and then he'll say dada

I think mine started around that time, he start saying dad then mama

My boy has just started saying it, he’s 7 months, but every baby is different! Ur little ones seems to be doing amazing with their language😊

He's been saying dada for ages, was his first word and will try other ones. Like pepper, Walter, nala, Jessica, Jamie but won't even attempt mama! He's doing amazing with his language I'm just sad he won't even attempt mama or mummy 🥺

It took time for my son to say mama or mummys.. he said dada at like 11 months but didnt say mama til maybe 14months.. any time i tried to encourage him he'd laugh..so i think it was a little game he was playing 😊

11 months and only says mamamamama when he’s sad whingy or tired 😅 otherwise everyone gets raspberries lol

About 20 months old for both Daddy and Mummy 🤣 she knew what it meant, if we said "go to daddy" or mummy she'd go to us. She'd say so many words, and colours, just never that. Honestly thought she was never going to say it.

We got mama babbling at around 8 months, but she didn't say it and mean it until around 12 months. She's never even tried dada though haha she just laughs at us when we try

I had the thought “I hate you” and it scared me 😭

I’m 2 weeks PP and sleep deprived and exhausted. I had the thought and then felt incredibly guilty and scared. I love my baby so much and I would never do anything to hurt her so this thought freaks me out. I think more accurately I’m just struggling right now and hate some of the changes in my life.

No sleep club

My little boy never sleeps, When I say he never sleeps he Litrally sleeps for 2 hours at a time the longest he goes is bout 6 hours On a night if I’m lucky and then he’s awake again at 5 every morning, I’m exhausted,there dads useless, iv tried everything to make him sleep longer, 3 meals, Bath time routine, Bedtime routine iv even tried a later bedtime but regardless he’s up anytime between 1-3 and then again at 5 so no sooner do I put him back down he’s up again I’m mentally and physically exhausted I am barely surviving the day does anyone have any advice cause he isn’t hungry he just laid there shouting an then starts screaming I’m genuinely so exhausted 😩💔

Pregnancy snoring anxiety

I have started snoring and apparently it is *loud*.
I have major anxiety about keeping other mums awake on the labour ward after giving birth. I’ve tried saline spray and trying nose strips tonight but I think I’m more stressed about this than labour! Anyone else in the same boat or have any advice?
Thank you!

MUMS OF 3

I have a 2 year old and a 2 month old, even though I’m so freshly postpartum I do want one more. Am I going crazy? What’s it like having that extra kid? What’s a good age gap ? Maybe I’ll wait until my newborn is 4?

Milk supply

I normally have oversupply but since last night my supply has dropped massively and baby even had a dry nappy between midnight and 3.30am. Usually it is at least wet.

How can I get my supply back? I normally feel engorged if he sleeps 4.5-5 hrs without a feed but tonight I don't feel anything

i left

left my abuser today. we have a 6 month old baby. dont have it all together but have family support. any and all encouragement/success stories if youve been thru this please feel free to share🫶🏼
