My LO no longer says mama...

I'm really sad my LO stopped saying mama a few months ago. It was mama all the time but I felt bad that there was hardly any dada so I made sure I always referred to my husband as dada and actually have a lot of books about dad, husband also start to pull his weight finally after a year of hardly anything so now that's all I hear from baby - dada. It hurts because we're having some martial problems and I feel unwanted overall. How can I get him to say mama again? I've tried buying books with mama in it and always refer to myself as mama, have tried to get husband to do su but he keeps forgetting, what else can I do?

My LO has never said mama, he says everything but and when I ask him he just laughs at me. I don't think there is anything you can do but please know that that baby needs you so much, I'm sorry you're having problems with your husband I hope those can be resolved and you can start the new year in a better place.

It's so weird but I have the same issue, my lo suddenly just stopped saying mama a few months ago unless he is really upset. He will point at photos and say papa, grandma, grandpa etc but not mama. Apparently he does say mama a lot when I'm not around. I don't know the reason but I've seen multiple posts on here about this which makes me think it might just be a phase or something.
