Because mine's Hoover, and I've got both versions covered. I suck down food like it's going out of style, and I feel like I'm retaining a million gallons of water. So I've got the vacuum cleaner and the dam covered, lol! MIL heard DH calling me Hoover in a teasing but affectionate way, and wow, that was awesome. It went a little something like this...
MIL: Why'd you call her that?
DH: Because she's a food vacuum and bloated from the heat. Hey, it was her idea!
MIL: Oh! I thought it was because of the way she sucks your-
DH: MOTHER!!!!
Me: *on the floor, dying of laughter*
Anyone else have fun pregnancy nicknames? :-)
Re: What's your pregnancy nickname?
My DH is a charmer too. He has stages of nicknames. I can't remember the first, but the second stage is "cow" and the third stage is "beached whale".
He also calls me pregno. I know these kinds of pregnancy nicknames are generally hated here on TB, but I actually like that one:)
OMG cty I love yours!!! That's so something my MIL would say, I'm laughing so hard!
I have several, the most that have stuck is plain ole "preggo" and DH calls me "boobies", cuz, well, that's the first thing that people noticed about me being pregnant. They are ginormous, and are almost as big as the bump! LOL
The baby is also called "Harpo" by a friend's dad. Her name is Harper, but I guess he mixed Harper and Preggo (what he calls me). I think it's kinda funny.
When I am angry he calls me preg-tor, and when we walk around he likes to call me his "preggo waddler"... I actually think its kind of cute.
I'm a nanny for 2 very precocious kids and they have been calling me "Big Mama" for the last few weeks
Makes me laugh every time!
