Pretty uncreative with "peanut". Guess if I "illegally" hopped in a hot tub, it'd be a "boiled peanut" (a little homage to one of DH's favorite treats from home).

the peanut. my dh started calling it that the day we found out. after the baby is born we are both getting peanut tattoos.... with the baby name under of course!
That is exactly what Dr. House called a baby on the second season.
In his own words: "...the good news is that most women learn to embrace this parasite, name them, dress them in tiny clothes and arrange play dates with other parasites..."
i've been calling her something different every week.? the different foods that are listed on this website to help determine the size of the baby. cause my husband thinks it's ridiculous.? this week she's olive.? ?

Barry Lamaar. Ugh, DH wants to name him (if it's a him) after Barry Bonds. I have started calling it that too around him. I don't want my child to be named after that man!
Munchkin. It started when someone compared a prune (the baby's size that week) to a munchkin and it's stuck. I think it might last until well after the baby is born!

That's hilarious - Barry used to work out at my gym. He was a pretty nice guy.
That's good to know! I don't blame him for the steroids thing. I feel like he was just a scapegoat. I did think he tended to seem like a jerk but it's nice to know he's actually a nice guy. Maybe Barry Lamaar isn't so bad. Wait, yes it is.
We've been calling the baby Blessing for a few weeks now - not because we're super sentimental and cutesy but because we have been disagreeing over names and the other day in church I saw that some lady's name was Blessing Smith. So of course, I pointed that out to my husband and said that's what we're naming our baby. It seems to have stuck.
Lately, though, my husband seems to think that Blessing is too girly so he's taken to calling the baby Diesel Hellfire. Um, yeah. He wants a boy.
Usually just "baby", but honestly don't think I've referenced it much.
H likes to call it the jumbo shrimp, at my first u/s it looked like a shrimp but the u/s tech said "it looks like a big baby"...so now H says jumbo shrimp.
My husband and I call it the Chub, because its made me chubby. It just kinda stuck, but now Im leaning more towards a human name, and not something that points out my ever expanding waste.
usually "le be-be" or whatever fruit s/he is supposed to be the size of in any given week. Next week is olive. I don't like olives so I doubt we'll be referring to the baby as an olive.
Re: What nickname do you call your baby?
The first one was and still is pookie
This one is gummy bear so far
Cashew.
People started calling it peanut, and DH and I looked at each other and stated how we don't like peanuts, we like cashews.

the baby.
We're not very cutesy.
We use parasite too... or I call it AJ (DH's first initial and junior haha, cause it makes him cranky)
DH though has taken to calling him/her "Jelly Bean" - we we use that.
That is exactly what Dr. House called a baby on the second season.
In his own words: "...the good news is that most women learn to embrace this parasite, name them, dress them in tiny clothes and arrange play dates with other parasites..."
I thought it was cruel, but funny too.
I like jelly bean - but, DH and MIL like sweet pea...
My SIL and brother are expecting their "gummibear" any day now - so, that one's taken!
Our little bugger.

we call ours little bear. our nickname between each other is bear, so of course the baby would be little bear.
