She will sometimes repeat hi back to you on command. Mama is the only one that I *think* she used purposefully. One night she woke up in the middle of the night and hubs tried to calm her and she was just wailing maaaaammmaaaaaaaa and she stopped crying as soon as I came in and took her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-898039 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 10:03:01 +0000 BeachMama 898039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Evelyn has said "hi" for several months now, since she was probably 7 or 8 months. Now she's 13 and it's still the only one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-898035 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 10:02:21 +0000 Mrsjets 898035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mama (usually while whining) then Dada (always happy) then cat (with a long drawn out A while rubbing his fingers together) around 11 months. At 13 months he's added a few more words but doesn't use them consistently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-898011 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:55:34 +0000 mrsjazz 898011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Her first word was Hi. She was saying mama and dada before but we think she was just repeating it because she would call anything and everything mama and dada but she would say Hi as soon as someone walked into the room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-897986 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:48:39 +0000 rachiecakes 897986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Twine: poop was one of the first for us, too.. right after mama, dada and kitty. </p> <p>mama was first :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-897952 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:40:35 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 897952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't remember if it was Bye Bye or Uh Oh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-897948 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:39:30 +0000 Dandelion 897948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kitty! If it wasn't going to be Mama, I was so proud he said Kitty first, lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-897924 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:33:10 +0000 Mrs. Twine 897924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ellie's was Mama (around 11 months). Lorelei's was 'poop' around 7.5 months. I didn't want to count it, but she clearly knew what it meant and was using it in context, so... </p> <p>I think language acquisition is just such a fascinating topic! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-897921 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:32:51 +0000 looch 897921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Papia...which is the way my son calls my husband. In Swiss German, it's Papi, but I don't know where he got the "a" at the end. I am "Mamia" and he calls himself "Gegia."</p> <p>Way more than anyone wants to know, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-897914 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:30:09 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 897914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Apple!

Then Daddy. Then mama when she's pissed off. :P</p> <p>She is trying to say dog now and says please. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-los-first-word-4#post-897908 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 09:28:35 +0000 Mrs. Bee 897908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Charlie's was very clearly ball just before he turned 1. With Olive, her use of words was more inconsistent so it was a little harder to tell when she really knew a word and what it meant rather than just repeating us. Her first word was probably uh oh around 11 months as well.</p> <p>What was your LO's word? </p>
