He'll start off with mommy and then switch back and forth until someone comes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2357985 Mon, 16 Nov 2015 11:24:45 +0000 ElbieKay 2357985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always, always mommy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2357045 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 12:42:10 +0000 MOMTOLITTLEB 2357045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mommy and it's Mommy in the morning too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2357042 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 12:39:41 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2357042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby calls for Mama, big sister just shows up in my bed when I wake up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2357036 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 12:32:57 +0000 Golden 2357036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Used to be mommy, now it's Daddy since I have the baby.

Most of the time he just gets up and crawls into our bed and cuddles with me for a few minutes until he's calm, and then D takes him back to his room. </p> <p>D and I have an arrangement that if he wakes up before 6:15 D takes care of it (he works second shift so he doesn't have to be up nearly as early as me). Great in theory, but in reality E usually wants to at least see/hug me for a minute, and that's okay, since I can at least stay in bed for it :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356985 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 11:41:59 +0000 birdofafeather 2356985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mostly mama. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356980 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 11:30:22 +0000 Charm54 2356980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>"mammmmmmaaaaaaaaaa" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356979 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 11:28:20 +0000 HLK208 2356979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both of us - which is so nice because it use to just be me :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356977 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 11:21:27 +0000 Anagram 2356977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: we started early in my pregnancy, because I was super sick, from 5.5-23 weeks and on 3 anti nausea drugs that all have dizziness and drowsiness as side effects (and I was still working full time). So very early on, DH had to take over night wakeups. That made it handy for when the baby arrived, so now we each have one kid.</p> <p>As with any transition, it takes persistence. She used to take turns calling for mama and daddy, and the first few times she called for mama and I didn't go, she was upset. But then she got used to it after a few nights. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356973 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 11:17:11 +0000 FaithFertility 2356973@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD will actually cry and say her sitters name "Lydia" :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356971 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 11:14:14 +0000 Cherrybee 2356971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She doesn't, she just cries. Its usually me who goes in though. If DH goes in, she asks for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356968 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 11:12:42 +0000 yin 2356968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO1 just cries out in the middle of the night, and DH usually brings him to the bathroom to go potty. LO2 mostly cries out for me. If I don't respond quickly enough, he starts calling for DH. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356962 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 11:07:01 +0000 Foodnerd81 2356962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always mommy. But she is ok if daddy comes instead. He's been taking most of the night time wakings, partly because he will be taking them all when I'm up breastfeeding the new baby, so we want her to be used to it, and mostly because I'm so freaking tired while pregnant that I can't get through the day when I'm up with her at night. Like I have meltdowns all day long- I'm worse than the toddler. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356940 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 10:43:12 +0000 bushelandapeck 2356940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always mommy. DH is a very deep sleeper so he doesn't even usually hear him cry out right away. I'm a light sleeper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356937 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 10:42:07 +0000 plantains 2356937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: this is what we are dealing with right now. DH goes in to comfort the toddler and she keeps crying and insisting on Mummy. But I am ebf the 6 week old so i have to deal with that too. Ugh, this too shall pass. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356926 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 10:30:28 +0000 Finfan 2356926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD calls for both of us. Usually DH goes in but I do sometimes as well. I'm recovering from a C-section right now so he also alternates baby wake ups with me (not BFing). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356921 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 10:18:46 +0000 travellingbee 2356921@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: yeah ours are still nightly too. I'm worried about when baby comes and he still insists on mommy :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356920 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 10:16:25 +0000 Anagram 2356920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The toddler usually cries for daddy, because that's our division of labor. He gets the toddler's wakeups (which are still nightly) and I do the baby's wakeups. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356916 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 10:06:41 +0000 travellingbee 2356916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Over the summer it was daddy now it's back to all mommy all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356912 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 10:01:24 +0000 autumnlove 2356912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always mommy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/who-does-your-lo-call-out-for-in-the-motn#post-2356907 Sun, 15 Nov 2015 09:55:43 +0000 Bao 2356907@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>99.9% of the time it's mommy. I think my kids are just wired to cry mommy when they are sad. They do ask for daddy in situations where I'm not letting them do something ;) </p>
