    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. :)

    Right now we call it the m&m, because on the very first u/s at 4+ weeks it was just a teeny tiny black smudge.

    "The Baby".  Ha! Guess we are not too creative.  We never had nicknames for any of the pregnancies.

    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).

    We call ours baby or bun.

    I was referring to him/her as "poppy" because when we got the BFP it was the size of a poppy seed.

    DH though has taken to calling him/her "Jelly Bean" - we we use that.

    I call ours the fetus. Dh and my mom hate it.

    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.

    There are no blurred lines, only jail time

    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 are due in June so we are nicknaming the baby "Junebug".

    that's hilarious!!

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

    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.

  • Options
    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.
