I think it's because we sometimes refer to him as "Dada" when talking to DS (who's only 3 months) and she picked it up from that. I don't think he minds, though... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyones-toddler-call-their-father-dada#post-208361 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 06:56:31 +0000 Andrea 208361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, she'll call me Mama but doesn't call DH Dada. I think she calls me Mama only because we have a book where the mom is called Mama. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyones-toddler-call-their-father-dada#post-208346 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 05:54:19 +0000 mrbee 208346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Charlie's started calling Bee "Mama," which she loves! He's also started calling me "Dada," which I'm not as into.</p> <p>Usually I hear Dad or Daddy, and Dada is just something that babies say when they can't pronounce anything yet. It got me wondering if Dada is something that toddlers say or not.</p> <p>Does anyone's toddler call their father, "Dada"? </p>
