I call my mom "umma," which is mom in Korean. Charlie calls me mommy, mom, and Bee haha. It would be nice if he called me umma, but I guess I never taught it to him.
What do you call your mom? What do you want your LO to call you?
-
mom or momma
-
I call my mom mom. And I call myself Mommy to LO, so she'll probably call me that.
-
I still call her mommy. Or mother when I'm annoyed with her.
I want to be called mama or mommy.
-
Mom or Mother (done sarcastically), but more often than that her first name or versions of it.
-
I call her umma and mommy!
I'm thinking my LO will call me the same -
I call my mom mom. Called her mommy when I was younger.
Wagon Jr. calls me mommy and I absolutely loooove it... it's like sugar to my soul! especially when he says "mommy mommy mommy!" while running towards me!
-
I call her mom. I say mother when I can't get her attention.
-
haha this reminds me of a story. A male friend of ours was at Costco with his son (about 4 years old at the time?) and his son was throwing a tantrum, so he walked away from him. His son called "Dad! Dad! Dad!" when he didn't respond, he started yelling "Eugene! Eugene!" still no response, so he yelled "Babe!!!" (what he and his wife call each other.) haha.
-
@mrs. wagon: HAHAHA made me Lol.
Man. I will die when my LO calls me mommy!! It keels me whenever she calls me umma. -
I call my mom "umma". I'm trying to teach LO to say it, too, but she hasn't learned.
-
I call her mum. I think a lot of people is New England tend to pronounce it mum instead of mom because my husband does too.
I want my babies to call me mama. That's common here in the south where we live now and I've grown to really like it.
-
@Rubies: Have S call you umma! DH and I call each other umma and appa and that's how LO learned!
-
i never grew out of calling my mom "mommy". my older brother does too and we call our dad "daddy". we are in our 30's!
-
I call her mum or mummie. I'd love for my LO to call me those or mumma.
-
I call her Mama. Not sure what I would have my LO call me yet.
-
Mom. Or Ma.
-
I call my mom "mom". DS calls me mommy most of the time, sometimes mom, and when he is being sassy, Mother!
-
My mother is "Mama". I really want LO to call me "Marmee" but we'll have to wait and see about that!
-
I call my mom "mommy"
I refer to myself as mama when I talk to LO
-
I call her Mom. When we're in a crowded place or I'm looking for her, though, I'll holler, "Regina!"
I want my lo to call me Mommy until she gets older. Then Mom is fine.
-
I call my mom momma and I still call my dad daddy.
-
I call my mom "umma" or "mom" when I'm being sarcastic/annoyed
I greet my dad w "hi daddy" on the phone... and call him "appa" when we're talking in person.

-
I call her Mom. LO calls me Mom or Mommy.
-
Mama, LO calls me Mama or Mommy, not sure where mommy comes from.LOL
-
Mum, Mummie or Ma.
@MamaMoose: with you on NE'ers not saying "mom' -
Usually Mom, occasionally Mama. When there's a house full of people and I can't get her attention, I'll yell Ginny.
-
I call her, mom or mommy.
Mavricks calls me "mama" -
When I was young, I'd call her Mama, then to Ma, then it evolved into Mom exclusively. I'm not sure what LO will call me. Mom? But the norm here is mamma and pappa.
-
Mom
my LO calls me: mama, mommy, "my mommy" (her most recent favorite)
-
Mom or momma if I'm being silly/sarcastic toward here like "oh yeah right momma!" If I need her attention at family functions/crowded places I'll say her full name but she hates that!
-
I call my mom "mom" or "ma". I wanted my LO to call me "mommy" (what I called my mom when I was little) but she started calling me "fishie". We keep wondering if she will call me that her entire life or if she will eventually call me mom!
She calls her dad "daddy" although she occasionally calls him "Joe" (his name) especially if she is asking him for something (I think she's imitating me when she does this!)
-
Mum or Mummy.
We email on a regular basis (as well as daily phone chats) and I love that, even though I'm nearly 30 years old, she still signs all her emails, "Love from, Mummy" So cute
-
Mom or mama. I called her mommy when i was young. I don't have a LO yet, but I assume he/she will call me mommy.
-
@mrs. wagon: That's hilarious!
I call my mom "mommy" when I see her in person.
-
Just remembered... Wagon Sr. calls his mom Mom or Umma, but when he gets annoyed/heat of the moment, he calls her "Ma" with a Staten Island accent. Haha.
-
Mom or Ma. And by her childhood nickname if she does something silly.
-
Mom, and I refer to myself as mommy to my LO
