What are you calling baby?

[mosdub]

We've been calling ours nana.bosho based off of an Ojibwe myth we had read while we were on the camping trip where I got my bfp. For some reason it just stuck! It's fun to say anyway!

[madameovary]

Sesame! My son was Dumpling .

[cosmicav]

We mostly are calling it "Number Two" lol #creative

Though I have been known to call her/him a punk. Like "this little punk won't let me eat chicken anymore. Motherfucker." It is said with love

[meggypoo1]

Baby number 2. I have tried peanut but eh. With Clara we called her baby last name until we knew she was a girl and then we called her baby Clara.

[sillygirl44]

Newbie or baby.

Nothing. I still forget I'm pregnant occasionally.

Same @priss08. I don't actually forget bc I'm nuts and think about this all.the.time., but we don't mention the pregnancy at all outside of taking my medicine, appointments, etc.Probably won't for another month or so.

Yeah, my family knows and last night my SIL touched my stomach. I shut that shit down fast. I mean, I don't even look pregnant yet. Why are you touching me?

Wrong thread

[muskiefan]

We've been referring to it as "this one." No sweet nicknames, though we didn't with DD or DS either. I believe the most appropriate name for the time being is "game changer."

[moutonrouge]

It was tic-tac. I think now it's tater. DH is the one using the name - I'm not there for some reason.

[mikaela20]

Right now just The Babe - like that pig movie that was out decades ago.

Ewww that's early for the touching to begin. Did you touch her back?

I told all involved that I don't like that and won't tolerate it while pregnant. I'm...not into that stuff. They weren't around me when I was pregnant before so they were surprised.

I've been calling him Squish since I found out, and now my whole family does (and I'm using male pronouns even though we don't know the sex yet. It's just easier).

My grandma wanted to call the baby "Mary Katherine" (I think in the hopes that it would stick if it's a girl). I shut that down real quick.

When she gets nervous does she put her hands under arms and smell 'em like this?

+ 1 for squish. But in my head it's a girl (mostly bc the heart rate was really close to what DDs was, I'm crazy I know).

[kristhegirl]

This one is ZZ, which stems from a joke that would be too hard/lame to describe, and has nothing to do with bearded musicians.

My first was Horchata. It was a funny word that stuck.

[ladytiffany24]

I've mostly been calling this one "peanut." No particular reason. DD was nugget.

[bookish]

DH is calling this one strawberry because DS was blueberry. I am not on board and feel like it implies it is a girl.

You could call it saskatoon (type of berry). 

[jnnfrrose6]

Nothing special. It's just "the baby."

[sunflower]

We're calling it "poppy seed" because when we first found out I was pregnant that was apparently the size of the embryo, and the name just stuck.

[jillywilly]

We've been going with "new baby," so not very creative.

I don't think we had a very creative name for DS in utero either though, just "baby." We settled on his name pretty early, around 20 weeks and were about 99% confident that would be his name, so then we just started calling him by his name.

[ladytiffany24]

Now I want chicken nuggets.

[pbubblegum]

Zuri, because we conceived in Zurich.
