Well, this is embarrassing, but we call him Lumpy! Or Lumps. Because when he was first born he just sat around like a lump (which was very different from our first). But we don't really want it to stick, so as soon as DS1 started picking up on it we tried to stop. DS1 called him Bean the other day so we're trying to switch to that.
DS1 was always Bug. He looked like a little bug when he came out - big eyes and tiny little body. We also often called him Bucket, for unknown reasons.

DD is Peaches. We called her peanut when she was born because she was a normal-sized 7lb 10oz. Then her weight skyrocketed and peanut didn't really fit anymore. So we switched to peaches because she's sweet like summer peaches!

I've been calling him "Monkey" a lot because he flails around like a wild creature. I sometimes refer to him as my little cornflake because his poops smelled like a bowl of cornflakes in warm milk when he was first born. Is that weird? That's weird.
I keep changing what I'm calling LO until I find something that fits. So far I've been calling her chickadee, little monkey, honey, and baby. Nothing so far.

Only weird if it makes you hungry.
DH calls her bokkie, which means little buck. She likes to arch her back when you're holding her sometimes, like she's trying to throw herself off lol.

My first DD's name is Charlie and we started calling her Charmonster because she used to growl at people all the time. Now we usually just call her monster.
Sometimes I call Lilly Lillikins, but other than that I call her monkey, or booger butt.

I call her Sunshine when she's having a meltdown and Peanut (what I started calling her after our first ultrasound), and finally Lil Miss and Lovie. I'm not super creative with nicknames.
My husband has called our little guy "spike" since before he was born (after a player on the U of M basketball team who was playing pretty well in the playoffs last year when we got our bfp)... I Call him sweet potato for no specific reason, also Chunky Monkey bc he is almost 16 pounds at two months old?

Kind of embarrassing- We started calling LO Soybean (name Sawyer) and now DS has started calling her that. Sometimes it's just "bean" and "cakers" shortened from "babycakes" LOL...silly nicknames:)

Auburitto because when she born the hospital swaddle sleep sack was white and it looked like a burrito shell. LOs name is Aubrey so we combined the 2 words.

Since DS came out I have called him Squish. He was just (and still is) so squishy and cute! We also call him Bud. I caught my 8 yo niece stroking his head one day saying "it's okay Bud" and my heart melted. It has stuck! We also just shorten his name and call him Coop.

My LOs name doesn't have an easy nickname so we've been calling her baby girl and I call her little lady. I'm hoping a more permanent one comes to us as her personality emerges.
