#I think I screwed up my coming out

So, I came out to my dad as omni and trans. He said my family and himself would need to have a while to adjust, because they'd been thinking of me/seeing me as a girl for my entire life. It's now been around four months, and I'm still being misgendered. Now, in my dad's defense, I was crying a lot during said coming out because the last one was horrific. (Came out as ace unintentionally to an incredibly homophobic mom) So I'm not sure if I just wasn't clear on my gender and what I want to be called, or what. Help please?

Maybe remind him again, saying “hey, when you use (pronouns), it makes me feel really bad, and I’d really like it if you could use he/him for me!” or something like that,
