Babble vs words

Jillian • expecting my first little one in January '17 💟

So, as a first time mom I've of course "heard" my little one say things like , dadadadada, pupppppppuuupppp ( we call her dog her puppy) or Addddddaaaaa (her name) or today her father swore she said maaammmaaamaaa

But I chalk it all up to babble and not real words, like I'm making her babble into words for her and calling it just that.

Is it possible I am wrong and at 8 months she is actually saying things? I only wonder as I fb friend posted how her 7month old is saying momma.
