A2's first word was Achi. Since then he has gone on to Daddy, Mamma, Chitta and even Thanthi(for our maid Shanthi). He refused to say Mummy despite my repeating it like a mantra everytime he called me Mamma or Chitta.
Then one day I brought home some chicken biriyani from Richies and let him have a taste. He loved it but we thought it might be too spicy for him and K Chitta started feeding him chappati and my foodie son turned around and called out to me with a very emphatic "Mummy". And he continued to call me "Mummy" till I gave him some more Biriyani. I have been Mummy since that evening. Thank God for chicken biriyani :)
