Both of mine stopped saying it around 5/6 :( They are 7 and 10 now and if I ever say something like 'give your mummy a cuddle' they just go MUUM! but then cuddle me anyway!

I have alway's been mum even when they were little. Easier for them to say. Also saves them changing when they get older. I think mummy is for little ones, thats my opinion :(( Marion

Hi Penny. Just wondering if you do or do not want your children to call you mummy? I live in Scotland, and maybe things are a wee bit different up here. But I still refer to my mother as Mammy, and I am a grandmother myself. I lost my father when I was 31, and he was still always my daddy.I will be 50 next year, by the way! It doesn't matter what they call you, so long as they acknowledge who you are. Gail

Sadly I can't remember. One thing I can't stand is hearing children call their parents by their Christian names and not using those special titles of Mum(my) and Dad(dy). Liz
