Maxx. He picked up the words right away and started using them at each meal. I wasn't a fan of him calling my food yucky though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-say-yummy-and-yucky#post-1015198 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 08:37:32 +0000 regberadaisy 1015198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: hahahah she's so hilarious.</p> <p>M says mmmmm when she's eating. I love it. So cute. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-say-yummy-and-yucky#post-1015185 Wed, 14 Aug 2013 08:33:17 +0000 808love 1015185@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: we are the same. We don't use those words around her. We purposely didn't teach no for that reason but used other words instead. I didn't want her screaming No. </p> <p>LO says yummy in my tummy and 'ewwww'. Both not learned from me. I try to get her to say No thank you or Not for me or I don't like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-say-yummy-and-yucky#post-1014307 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 18:11:50 +0000 lemondrop 1014307@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha, ha, she's so cute!</p> <p>He just says Mmmmmmm! num num num! when he's hungry or likes something. We've been trying to avoid negative words associated with food to avoid pickiness (in our dreams, right!), so at this point he just shakes his head no :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-say-yummy-and-yucky#post-1014288 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 18:05:28 +0000 yoursilverlining 1014288@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO knows "yum" and points and says "yum yum" if she sees something she likes, or will say "yummmmmmmm" while she is eating if she really likes something.</p> <p>She doesn't say "yucky" yet. I say "yucky" when I don't want her to mess with something (food, and otherwise) and she knows to leave that thing alone.</p> <p>LO LOVES ice, so whenever she sees a drink she will point and say "ice! ice!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-say-yummy-and-yucky#post-1014268 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 17:56:00 +0000 chopsuey 1014268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sorrycharlie: just don't want her calling things yucky. we never taught her the word "mine" either. she says "this is mine" in Korean.<br /> I've heard lots of kids say certain words over and over again and they bug me. Wish I never taught her the word "no!" cause it drives me crazy when she says it all the time. :P :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-say-yummy-and-yucky#post-1014253 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 17:48:34 +0000 sorrycharlie 1014253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: just out of pure nosiness/curiosity, how come? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-say-yummy-and-yucky#post-1014243 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 17:44:02 +0000 chopsuey 1014243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We don't want DD saying the word yucky so we don't use it.<br /> She does know yummy though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-lo-say-yummy-and-yucky#post-1014240 Tue, 13 Aug 2013 17:41:40 +0000 mrbee 1014240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: It really is an incredibly useful book for kids!!
