My kids called my mil 'mama' cos for Cantonese, mama is paternal grandma. At first I am not used to it but after they are able to talk well, they differentiate by calling me mummy instead. Don't worry lah. Your son will know who is his mummy dearest as he grow.
My mil also a Cantonese, so to her to teach my bb to call her ma ma is right and call me mommy. But at home I teach my baby to call ah ma ma in stead my mil feeds my bb with kopi o and Tey o too when my bb only 10 months plus. She said bb loves to drink. I told ok but cannot drink too much. I don't stay with my mil but every morning I will bring my bb there and night time bring him back home.. so every morning, will chat with her before I go work. I told her that my bb knew how to walk already when he was just 11 months.. she said ya last week already know ah. Now my bb 14 months learn a lot of things from my mil. After all I will grow old and become grandma, I don't wish that my dil will hate me too so 将心比心. I only that if I treat my mil good, she will treat my bb good too at least my hubby won't caught in between us.
