Gwen started saying "ma-ma" a few days ago.

Before any downers say something, I'm perfectly aware of the fact that she could just be practicing her "M" sounds. But it is a well known fact that babies usually say "da-da" first. The important thing is that she's vocalizing and attempting to imitate sounds she hears. This morning when I got up I heard her playing in her crib, when I started to make noise she got quiet and then she said it... So... I myself am going to continue under the belief that she knows what she is saying, if for no other reason then that it makes her daddy jealous.. =)
