Post subject: Hiya hun, welcome to
My daughter is 9 months and all she says ALL DAY is daddy/ dad dad etc but she can say mummy and nannan. Shes definitly a daddys girl and hes always been her favourite. it is a bit upsetting but i know she loves me too. Some days she doesnt smile at me at all but as soon as daddy gets home she doesnt stop! 
I think it always the way tho, Daddy's girls and mummy's boys 
Its not your fault hun, its just the way it is im afraid! chin up xxx Katie xxx _________________

Post subject: katie i wouldnt say that... andrew is such a daddys boy!! he can scream all day for me and then as soon as daddy gets home hes good as gold!!
its strange because as jealous as i am of his bond with daddy i kinda love it too, its so cute when he goes aronud saying dadadada all the time and when he yells DADDEEEEEEEEEEEEEE for oh its cute but sometimes i just wish he wanted mummy 
try playing with her down at her level that always cheers andrew up!  have a day full of fun stuff (to hell with the hosuework!) and just have a day dedicated to her, park, walk, playing etc she will love it and at the end you will feel so close to her!! Posted: Thu Aug 06, 2009 10:36 am

Post subject: Stop worrying. Your baby isn't saying Dad.. she's making noises and just experimenting with sounds. The dadada sound is easier than saying mumum.. my son started saying dadada at around 7 months.. but is a complete mummy's boy!! Chill out, and enjoy your baby!

Post subject: I assumed my little boy would be a 'mummy's boy' but no! He just adores his Dad. Everything is about Daddy. It has improved slightly lately but I keep hoping that this baby might favour me!
I think I always felt worse because every other baby/child I know is sooooo clingy with their mum. My guy has never been. I do try to make 20 mins or so every day where I totally focus on him with no distractions or housework etc. This was Baby Whisperer advice (especially with a working mum but works for stay at home mum too). x _________________
