What's your nickname for your LO?

Sara*n*Ryan · January 2011

We recently stared calling ours McBeal and McB for short. At our 12 wk u/s it was dancing around like crazy and I said it reminded me of the creepy dancing baby on Ally McBeal, and DH has been calling McBeal/McB since.

El bebe #2.

MorgansMommy1 · January 2011

we called our DD peanut (and still do sometimes)

I decided to call this one M&M because that is all I wanted to eat the week I got my BFP!

kelann2010 · January 2011

Baby (enter last name here)

Because we are team green that will definitely stick!

Nugget

Li'l Nugget.

DS was Baby (Last Name) the whole time because we didn't share the name. We let DS pick a name to call this baby right now, and he picked Hamm (like on Toy Story) so we now talk daily about Baby Hamm.

HAHA If we did that we would be calling our baby either Elmo or Mickey! LOL

meganjane86 · January 2011

Baby, Lil Pooper, or Little Jerry Orbach! haha

DH and I don't really have a nickname, we just call LO baby.

My mom however has been calling LO "Sweet Pea" ever since I told her that was how big it was in the first few weeks. It was cute at first, but now I am kind of over it.

Well, we're clearly in a Toy Story phase right now! At first I thought it was kinda silly, but seeing the smile on his face was so sweet. And then he ran to get his little Hamm figurine and laid it on my belly. So...it stuck!

This is definitely my favorite! It certainly feels like a parasite 95% of the time.

We call ours 'Sweet Baby Ray.' It's the name of a delicious barbecue sauce we like to use.

I tend to call mine my little peanut.. my sister calls it the little nugget and my hubby calls it The Chosen One haha

HAHA That sounds like something my hubby would do. What is it with men and Star Wars... Is it written into there DNA to have to like it???? If this baby is a boy DH wants to name him Anakin..... SO NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!

alliapistor · January 2011

DH has taken to calling it Leroy. I'm not sure why other than he thinks its funny. I've mostly been just calling it the baby.

2Norfolk · January 2011

DH and I have a nickname for eachother "Bons" doesn't really make sense but we've been calling eachother that for years so little one is "baby Bons"

Mrs.P08 · January 2011

We call our LO, "Wally". Because we found out we were pregnant really early and when I got my BFP I went to the doc the next day and had an u/s and all they could see was a really thick wall.

sapphirewolfkdv · January 2011

DH and I mostly just say "the baby," but my sister started calling it "Niblet" and that nickname has spread around my family.

TheLastCall · January 2011

Drumstick. The baby looked like a KFC drumstick during the first ultrasound, so the name stuck.

fabfive · January 2011

we call ours "the bun".

wattsamy · January 2011

We call ours our little monkey

KChicago · January 2011

Haha some of these are sooo funny!

Ours is Ramon (Ra-moan) not sure why it just happened.

mcatmay · January 2011

ours is "baguette" - DH came up with it because LO was conceived in france and it's a type of french bread (ie. bun in the oven). It totally stuck and the whole family and friends always call up asking how Baguette is doing :-)

Mrs White · January 2011

We call this one Dos.. or Number 2

September2007 · January 2011

"Bert & Ernie" -- we named them as embryos when we went through IVF, and once we put them back in, we started calling them "Bert & Ernie," it just kind of stuck. And now our family members do, too!

smb722 · January 2011

I don't have a consistent nickname for LO.. I just call it "my little (fruit of the week)" lol! So starting tomorrow it will be my little peach Big Smile

robnnoel · January 2011

We dont really have a nickname...we just say "the baby" or 'this one"..lol oh too exciting I know!

lob · January 2011

I sometimes used the ticker fruits for nicknames, but our consistent nickname is Ameliott....based upon the fact that this baby will be Amelia or Scott.

rien713 · January 2011

Sister calls it "gloworm" because that's what I said it reminded me of when I showed her the 9w u/s pic. We each had one when we were kids and they were pretty much made of awesome because it was a toy we could actually take to bed.

(PS I absolutely hate doing board intros but have been lurking for awhile, so I'm just gonna jump in here. Hi!)

babybchbum · January 2011

It depends on who you ask...

DH: Crusty (because we are lobsters it is a crustacean)

FIL: Audie (read ODD IE) my nephew was Troy through SIL's pregnancy

I call it: my little bean or peanut

my BFF's: Little Seahorse (thanks to the 1st u/s)

maronesa · January 2011

Ours is Baby Stretch or Little Stretch. My DH is 6'4" and his nickname is Stretch. When he told the guys at work that I was pregnant, one of them started to refer to the baby as Little Stretch, so it stuck!

UnicornBee · January 2011

I call it our little stowawat. DH calls it Baby Miller

MrsCase1 · January 2011

puerto rican jumping bean

DD calls the baby Taylor Swift!

Galaxy8227 · January 2011

Mine is nugget--one day I just found myself calling him/her my little nugget. No idea why

clangley09 · January 2011

We were just referring to it as "baby" but now it's "BooJu". My nickname since I was 4 months old is Boo, and to this day I could count on one hand how many people actually call me by my real name, and my nephew began calling DH "Juju" when he started talking because he couldn't say Justin. So now it's baby Booju!
