Do you find yourself referrring to the baby

gingerfamily · September 2009

As a girl or boy? I find myself calling it her a lot. It is probably because we have our girl name picked out.

We say "he", but we'll switch if we find out otherwise.

ladybutler · September 2009

We say "he" alot! I'm sure its because everyone thinks we will have a girl and we say its going to be a boy.

My dad calls it Mergatroid, and I've caught myself doing that a few times. Mostly we refer to LO as baby, and occasionally the girl name we've picked out. Never boy though

My friends called theirs 'shim'....too funny!

No, we just call the baby "Bonzo Bean" which is what my dad called me and brothers when we were little and we use it to refer to our fur babies too.

I called my DD she the entire pregnancy. Just felt like she was a girl. This time I go back and forth. Don't really have a feeling yet one way or the other.

We say "he" for the same reason of already picking out a boy name.

adcffaa · September 2009

A majority of women in my family have girls, and out of 12 kids my fiance is one of 3 boys (or something like that, we don't know for sure because he's adopted and doesn't keep too much in contact with his biological family) so were thinking it might end up being a girl. But when referring to the baby we either say baby, or "he or she".

MrsRon · September 2009

We call it "he" or "him". My brother's nn for "him" is "the little guy". He's so cute! Anyway, DH is convinced it's a boy, so I'm going with that until I find out otherwise.

AllieNC · September 2009

Sometimes "he" sometimes "she" but mostly "it". It just doesn't feel one way or the other yet.

Lisa10e · September 2009

I go back and forth too, I think its a she and DH thinks its a he. I'll probably keep calling baby both until we find out.

hadsit · September 2009

We call ours Dot. DH christened "it" the night we found out we were pg, just so we wouldn't say "it." If I assign a gender, it's usually girl and he usually says boy. I have a hunch DH's right, but I'm not telling him that!

Shsteph4 · September 2009

I lovingly call it, "it."

renfred · September 2009

We try not to, but usually end up referring to the baby as he.

Princessn678 · September 2009

I say her alot. I want a girl and I hate say it.

thomas&lynn · September 2009

We actual do, come to think of it. We never did that with DD either.

magdalina.h · September 2009

we call it wiggle. I named my best friend's baby little bit and she named mine wiggle.

NYC_CT · September 2009

We call ours "Iggy", which is a combination of nicknames we call each other. It's dumb, but it works.

rohansmom · September 2009

We try not to be gender specific yet. I still slip and call the baby she.

Bashert628 · September 2009

We just call the baby "Peanut"

tamhen1979 · September 2009

My DH started saying Squirt~ and it stuck. So we have a squirt until further notice.

Mizz&Shizz · September 2009

Well, I think its a boy, because I keep obsessing over boy names, but everyone else gets girl vibes from me is what they tell me.

We call it either "the kid" (kind of crass, I know), or Baby Shmizz, which is a combo of our nicknames (Mizz & Shizz, also my bump SN), and is also in my blog title.
