That's funny! And I think that's probably a good reason for calling them that. My mum tells me that my first word was thermometer - because she used to walk me around the house, pointing to things and telling me what they were. I don't really believe her though!! Having had a baby myself I don't think that anyone could have such a complicated first word, lol! I'm sure it was dada or baba, like most babies'.
The first thing my daughter said was "eh?", while pointing to something. It meant "what's that?" It's not a proper word of course, but we knew what she meant. Her first actual word was probably an animal noise. She loved moo-ing and miaow-ing from an early age. One of her early words was "fwower" instead of flower. We liked that one!

Awwwe. Haha wow yeah that does sound like quite a mouthful for a infant! Baby talk is so cute, I can't wait to hear my kids talk like that. My boyfriends niece is actually in the stage right now of making animal noises, every time she sees something that remotely reminds her of an animal she barks at it. It's adorable.

Hi there beautiful !
Well i can't really remember my first word but i can say something about my early days that is related :)
For some reason i spoke a few words when i was only a few months old, but after that, i went to silence until i was 3 years old - perhaps i didn't have anything important to say

I don't really know or remember what my first word was. I guess you would have to ask my parents about that one. lol. My best guess would be papa or mama. I just don't know. Its amazing that you can remember your first word after all these years.

Okay give me their number, I'll call them right up :)
Haha juuuust kidding, that would be a interesting conversation.. anyways alot of kids first word was mama or papa, since that's who they spent the most time with. I only remember it because my parents love to tell it as a story to EVERYONE haha, it used to be embarrassing but now I just find it funny.
