I'm just curious what you guys call your breastfeeds for your baby's ...like...when they want a drink...what do they say...for e.g num nums or boobies.
Boobies is our favourites or boobs

Sookies.
My parents use to call it that for when my brother and i were breastfeeding and i have kept on using the name...that is until DS starts talking and changes it!
Cheers

Oh that BITTY reminds me of Little Britain, have you seen it??
When it is feed time DH will yell out "Who wants Boobie Juice?" I am so glad he doesn't say it in public though!!:laughing:

When i was bf dd number 2 it was called Booby Juice :o
:laughing: Thanks for the laugh guys! I don't have a name yet.... I'll have to think of something.... :D
Had a good giggle reading the other posts. DS is too young to talk yet but knows what I mean when I say want some milk and so the sign action for it he gets a huge smile if that is what he's after!

My baby has been able to say "booby" since she was 7 months old :o . She says it so much now that I changed my msn name to "Boobies" cos that may as well be my real name. We also use booby juice, bitty, sousou and if she has hurt herself or is sick, it's "booby therapy" :D
We call it milk or milkies....
we said "nen nen" same for bottle. When DS wants a feed he'll keep saying nen nen
I am incredibly boring and have always called it "a feed" as in "it's time for a feed", "do you want a feed", "mummy will feed you", etc. We have survived two extended breastfeeders with this so I suspect that it will happen for number 3 too.

I think we generally say "Do you want some booby?" otherwise it's probably just feed time.
it's called Boobie here.
Although yesterday I saw someone refer to it as the 'Breastaurant' :laughing: I'm thinking of converting. :p

When the twins were babies I refered to feed time as 'dairy is open'- but now that they are older they call it 'Beebee'-

Breastaurant is hilarious, Seekrit!!
Mine shall now be called McBoobs.
Booby Time is usually how I refer to it to EJ lol
Ok now I will shock you all. All my children have referred to it as titties. Em at 23 months now will walk up and say I want titties no shame from her.:laughing:
If I could have convinced them to use another word I would have but DH encouraged it from day 1.

We are boring here, I usually ask DS if he is hungry - not that I expect a response.
Boobynana....as named by DF.
