There was no baby talk. We were offspring of young parents who toted their brood along wherever they went from good restaurants to business trips to international travel. Mother/father sufficed. SILs use their first names.
I call my parents dead, deceased, passed on. Frankly call your parents whatever you both are comfortable with.
Whats scarey is husband calling wife "mommy" or wife calling husband "daddy", thats seriously wrong IMHO. But suppose if it works for them and they dont call each other that in public.
Mom or mamma. But now I call her my heavenly angel.
Doubt I can type a g rated statement of what I called my bio dad. Luckily he has passed so I can let lose on the derogatives
Mommy and Daddy until I was around 5, before I started grade 1 in school anyway, and then when I started elementary school it was always Mom and Dad after that.

I lived most of my adult life in an area where "mama" and "daddy" (pronounced more like "diddy") were common throughout a child's whole life. I never got used to hearing a 50 year old call his/her 75 year old father "diddy" but it worked for them, I guess.
