My mama is really on my last nerve lately. Over something so small really. She is wanting my son to call her some strange name that apparently means "grandma" in German, but I don't like it so I told her no. I'm like 1/5 German, so that just doesn't make sense to me lol. Just wondering what will your mothers be called by your babies?
Oma & Opa for grandad...its jus sounds weird bekuz yur not used to it lol...tell her think of somethin else or it'll be grandma if its that serious to yu lol...she has to go off yur wishes...not hers...
My mom is wanting to be called Mimi, but then again my boy is going to have a ton of grandparents as he still has his great great grandparents, great grandparents (one is divorced and remarried), and my parents (mom is divorced and remarried), so for the sake of being able to know the difference between which grandma/grandpa we are referring to, we have Mimi, Gigi, Papa, grandma, grandpa, Grammy, etc lol
Nana for my mom and mam-maw for his mom. Our older girls are used to it already. They call his grandmother mee-maw.
@becky_rae, Yeah the German word she wants to be called is apparently "Oma" and I just don't understand, it makes me think of "omen" lol so I told her no. She doesn't like just Grandma so I suggested Gigi too @mrsprincessdenise3, or NeNe but she doesn't like those. So I don't know what she expects me to do 😂
My mom wants our baby to call her mama I flipped out when she told me lol
just be glad she didn't want your little one calling her something off the wall like my mom did. she wanted neenaw and to me that sounds like a damn donkey so me and my sister talked her into changing it
My mom is mamaw, and my aunts grand kids call her nana
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
I don't get the point of the nicknames. I call my grandma, grandma.
