Just curious if any of your babies favor you, or your boyfriend/husband. My daughter is a for sure mommy's girl, even to the point that people that are around me and my boyfriend for a hour or so comment on what a mommys girl she is

Corban loves his daddy (even though my husband doesn't always feel like it) but in general he is definitely a mommy's boy. When he was newborn he would scream the entire time I was gone if I left him with daddy but now he only screams if I'm home and daddy is trying to keep him busy while I'm doing something. If I leave the house or if Daddy takes him out somewhere he's perfectly happy until he gets sleepy and wants to nurse.

My oldest is definitely a momma's boy! He loves his dad but I'm the one he comes to to snuggle or get owies fixed. But my baby is beginning to be a daddys boy, which is a little easier when they are both crabby!

I have a mommy's girl and a daddy's girl. My oldest is a daddy's girl unless she is sick and no longer wants to be bothered by others and then she is a mommy's girl. My youngest has been a mommy's girl from day 1, she was a preemie and since others were scared to handle her its always been mommy to the rescue so now 7mths later she prefers mommy to do everything for her and she gives daddy a hard way to go.

My daughters both are Mommy's girls. We thought my eldest was switching teams - to daddy - but that seemed to be short lived! I love having my girls want mommy, but I know my husband would love one of them to switch over.... :)

I'd say my little man is a mommys boy. Even though dada was one of the first words that came out of his mouth. All I have to do is walk in a room and no matter who has him his arms go in the air and his little leggs start kicking wanting me to pick him up:) Awsome feeling puts a smile on my face eveytime.....

Total Daddy's girl until it's time to go to sleep, then she wants to cuddle up with Mommy.

My daughter was a total mommy's girl only till a few months ago. Now she is a daddy's girl to play but when she is tired or hungry or not feeling well she is a mommy's girl completely!!!

My son is a mommy's boy right now. He is teething and just wants cuddles. He has always been a daddy's boy when he wants giggles and fun and a mommy's boy when he wants love and cuddles.

I think generally babies are Mummy's to start because Mummy is home with them all day & get up 2 them at nite. They are more used to Mummy!
This is the case with my little one, but as he is getting older he is a bit more both Mummy/Daddy!

I'm a stay at home mom so I think my daughter leans more towards me but she cries for my husband and I just as much. She likes having both of us around and cries if we walk out of the room. And the minute my husband walks in the door coming home from work, she gets excited and mad if he does not pick her up right away!

My son as been a mummy boy even when I was pregnant with him. He wouldn't move for anybody but me when I was pregnant. Then I gave birth and he wouldn't even stay with his Daddy when I need to help get the plactia out.He now only goes to Daddy when he wants to play. Which upsets him (Dad) so badly. I was thinking it's cause I spend most of my time with him and brestfed

Gabby's a daddy's girl, for sure. He's the one at work everyday and when he comes home, it's all fun and games so I guess it's a treat for her to see him. And she'll only say "dada" and "daddy" so far.

My Jordan is for SURE a Mommy's girl. She'll be crying and crying while my husband is holding her, then when he hands her to me she's quiet. Sometimes I feel bad for him, actually. ;-)

My daughter is also a mommy's girl. Same as Jess, her daddy is fun for play time, then back to mommy. I think a big part of it is the fact that she went through a phase for a month or 2 shortly after birth where she hated her daddy and would scream any time he held her. And as such, during this time, I had to be the one to put her to sleep every night and I have ever since... so now her daddy can't even get her to take a nap for him lol.

My daughter see's her father as a great play thing... once the game is over she wants mummy ! Mummy is the go to parent, anything serious has my name all over it. At one point my daughter wouldn't even take solids from her father and would scream blue murder if he tried to bath her. I'd say she is a mummy's girl !

my son is a mummy's boy until daddy is due home from work but if he has just woken up or is teething and generally not happy he only wants me and will launch himself at me!

Mommy's boy all the way. People comment on it all the time. I'm a stay at home mom so all my time is spent with our son. I love it! The look on his face when I step back into the room is priceless. The only problem is, sometimes when someone is holding him and I have to do something, I have to hide behind stuff so he doesn't see me.

My little man used to be very much a daddys boy and still gets upset when he is too late getting home from work but when it comes to him being sick or hurting himself he turns to his mummy :-D
