"Mummy"

I was laying on my bed, my husband asleep next to me around 10 Friday morning. I wasn't sleeping, just laying there. My kids were at school. The house was quiet, for once. Relaxation. From behind me I heard a little girl say, "Mummy". Remember, my kids are at school. The hairs on my arm and neck stood on end and I turned around to see nothing at the doorway behind me. I know what I heard though. Someone or rather something said "Mummy".

I have now tried to rationalize this whole experience because for one, I spend a lot of time at home alone, at night. Also, I really have an active imagination. So here are possible explanations I have come up with to sooth myself. The cat meowed and it just sounded weird. Well, this doesn't work unless my cat has learned the ability to speak with an English accent. Last I checked he hadn't. The other explanation I came up with is that maybe I was half asleep. Only, I wasn't half asleep. I didn't even have my eyes shut.

Creepy.

You know, I had the exact same thing happen to me years ago. My eldest would have been about 3 yrs old then. It was really early in the morning and I was lying half asleep. I heard Mummy, muuuummeeee, and I thought oh no, she's awake already, I opened my eyes expecting to see her stood by the bed because it sounded so close, but she wasn't. I went to her room and she was fast asleep. It didn't sound like she'd said it in her sleep. I went back to bed and heard it again. It actually scared me because I knew it wasn't her. It still plays on my mind sometimes.. there's no explanation for it whasoever.
Wow that's really creepy!!!!! I have a really over active imagination so that would've totally freaked me out. I've never seen or heard a ghost but sometimes I just a get a funny feeling something's not right.
I go with you were half asleep and didn't realize it! That is my story and I am sticking to it!!

I work in this area... yes I know.

Anyway if it happens again you can ask the child to leave you alone as you aren't its Mummy and/or because you are a bit frightened.

This happened to my Sister in her bathroom at her old flat although she didn't mind the little girl who kept her company!
Perhaps it's time to get rid of that sarcophagus you've been hanging on to.
Or maybe you're just crazy.

Just trying to help.
that is creepy and stuff like this happens to me all the time. I always hear 'mommy' being called when my kids are not around. Its weird.
Oh no - you're losing it. But not the Americanisms I see - it's "lying" on the bed when you're in the UK. ;-)
Perhaps, just for a moment you were able to "talk to the animals" and understood your cat's meow.
That would definitely have me worried. Could it have been one of your daughters' talking toys? Maybe?
That is freaky. My house growing up was haunted. While in the shower no one in the house by me, I heard my name called out 3 times.
I used to be quite "sensitive" and hear and feel and see stuff everywhere.
I've learned to suppress it a bit but it took AGES!
I've heard that too much coffee can cause you to hear/see things... maaaybe?!?!?! ;)
