On message boards I use LO, in person I often use the pronoun "they" because we are Team Green and I think it sounds silly to say "he/she", "it", or "the baby" all the time. (Ex. "Wow they're really kicking up a storm right now" instead of staying "it's kicking up a storm") Of course, this always leads people to say, "OMG YOU'RE HAVING TWINS!!" Sigh.

Team green, so we say "baby" or "the baby," or an assortment of nicknames.

Usually just as "baby" or as "tubby", lol. He got the name Tubby when we had our 12 week or so ultrasound and he looks so tubby like - small arms and legs, huge round body...and now the name has stuck. But we won't call him that when he arrives ever!
I didn't click one ... I refer to her differently on a board than I do in person. On the boards it's LO or DD. In person it's "the parrot," "the baby," or by the name we've finally chosen.
We usually call her Bebe, but have been gradually moving over to her real name Lucia.

SS Her nickname is Lulu, given by her grandparents because we won't share the real name with anyone, so they came up with that. I also call her "baby" a lot.

To other people, I call her "baby girl"... With each other, DH and I sometimes call her baby girl and sometimes call her by the name we think we're using.
Re: CPW: How do you refer to your lo?
