My baby is nearly 6months old, I carried him for 8months (he was early) I've feed him, changed him, bathed him, I do wonder if my husband has actually done anything........ So my beautiful little treasure turns round on friday and says 'dada'!!!!!!! Bloody dada, why o why does their first word have to be dada!! Husband looks rather smug everytime he says it!!!  |

lol - dont worry they always say dadda first cos its easier to say - not because dadda has done more more with them!! Frustrating at the time though isnt it!

It is not a word, just a noise. He will say mamama soon too. Beleive me, if his first (and so far only)word is in fact 'boobies', you will really wish it had been 'daddy!

My little girls was dada too, it is annoying but it is just a sound. Don't worry you will soon tire of 'muuuuuuummmmmmmmy' shouted at every opportunity when she dets older, you will want to change your name  I am known for my unforgiving nature (not road rage) of useless drivers and they usually get called a choice name or two. Zoe picked up on 'plonker' (thankfully!!) and daddy has been 'plonker' on and off so I did get my own back.......................... |

We have a new word today - 'door'. Unfortunately, it seems to mean 'water please'. Should I be worried??

Apparently they also pick it up first, because its mummy doing them and you talk about "Daddy" so they hear it more. You often don't speak about yourself in the second person!

Lol like others have said it's only a sound. It is nearly always one of the first sounds they can produce and they then utter it ad nauseam. When they are greeted with pleasure and encouragement from their parents they will repeat it and also experiment with other sounds, which is the first steps to language. It's not favouritism, it's biology!
