What Are You Nicknaming The Baby?

TonyaCody06 · October 2013

I've never really "nicknamed" my previous babies since we knew we were finding out gender and then it just became their names after that point. This time we will be Team Green and I feel we need something so we aren't using "it". I need some ideas ladies

chusum · October 2013

I'm boring, so far I've been calling it "new baby".

SandyD83 · October 2013

We have just been saying, "the baby." I know, boring. Maybe once we get further along and I feel pregnant in a more fun way with rolls and kicks then a more fun nick name will be given.

With our first we said she was our little seahorse because the first pic we saw online of what she was supposed to look like eerily resembled a seahorse.

My husband calls the baby "poppy" since it was the size of a poppy seed when we found out lol

flerlgirl · October 2013

Sometimes I call it el guapo

tclayton53 · October 2013

Bumblebee

Janisdub · October 2013

My bestie got tired of new baby and anointed baby 'June Bug'.

feistybear · October 2013

We called Elli Belly bean till we found out she was a girl, we'll probably do the same with this one

Smalls. Hubby and I grew up watching The Sandlot. So every time I have symptoms I tell it "You're killing me Smalls." Corny but that's just how we are.

I'm ready to finally see Smalls though. Two weeks from Monday we will finally meet. I'll be 7 weeks!

Ha! love it - that's a good one

My first was due around Easter so he was jelly been and baby no name. This one I haven't "named" yet

tbmadeamistake · October 2013

C was always Lemon, or Lemon Square, can't remember why now

.

This one has been dubbed "Bug" by my sister because she only found out about it when I had the stomach bug!

JulieSmiles · October 2013

I absolutely love the show I Love Lucy, so my friend has been saying Little Ricky or Little Lucy whenever we talk!

Rickaroo922 · October 2013

I have been calling this one my little nugget. I called my son Gumby until we found out he was a boy (we already had names).

L.K.2010 · October 2013

I've been calling our baby Junebug since immediately after the positive home test & seeing on my menstral calendar app the due date was June 7th. I've also gone with JB because since finding out, I have felt it is going to be a boy. My husband doesn't think you should call a boy Junebug but either one works for me...

abbyful · October 2013

DS we called "the bean". The first u/s was at 6 weeks in the ER because I was bleeding red, he looked like a bean with a little flickering heartbeat, so that's what we called him.

No nickname has emerged for this one yet.

Jpinky9 · October 2013

I have been calling mine buggy, because I am having a little June bug

danielle1290 · October 2013

I keep calling it 'little one'

mommaheitz · October 2013

We call it peanut.

BamaKatieBug · October 2013

We are team green too! We've been calling it peanut. When I was pregnant with my son we called him moonpie. Like from the Big Bang Theory. Nerdy, I know.

MissBHaven1024 · October 2013

June Bug and peanut.

companion cube · October 2013

June Bug, my oldest daughter's nickname is Doodlebug, so when I got pregnant with my second we called her Little Bug, so it fits the "theme". I didn't have a theme on purpose, it just sort of happened. Little Bug ended up being rather ironic though, as my second kid ended up being 10 lbs 4 oz.

HeyAmberNicole · October 2013

Boyfriend is convinced it is a girl. And since he was right before the tests proved it about me pregnant, I'm going with that. So we started calling the baby "her". But, in case he's wrong this time, we've started with "Herb". 'Her' for the girl he's pretty sure we're having and 'b' in case it's a boy Hahaha I know, we're weird!

ColeyJ88 · October 2013

Gummy bear

cause at 6 weeks they look like little gummy bears with their little stumpy arms and legs! So adorable.

reynoldscagle · October 2013

I call it Blair Waldorf--I'm being terrorized.

RamseySD · October 2013

We'll probably just go with "baby." I think we want to be team green this time around, as well.

Our last one we called turkey because he always kicked us (little turkey!) and he was due around thanksgiving (turkey is done!).

Sometimes we still call him a little turkey.

chrystalgriffith · October 2013

Me and hubby have been calling our baby junebug . And I'm loving it . But we do have 2 names picked for a girl we picked may Penelope griffith and for a boy we picked Charles Alexander griffith

We called DD Poppy since she was the size of a poppy seed when we found out we were expecting. The name really stuck and everyone called her Poppy in utero. we were team green. My husband called this LO Poppy Jr right away, and we've since shortened it to PJ.

TonyaCody06 · October 2013

I like peanut but we call DD1 that sometimes now. I've joked around and told my girls I was going to call them "peanut", "butter", and "jelly"! They laughed and laughed

Jenstricklen22 · October 2013

We refer to the baby as Sprout

I thought about squirt, like on finding nemo but sprout is what has stuck!

diagonalley · October 2013

Baby sweet pea...our last name begins with a p and it sounded cuter than baby p

drsunny · October 2013

Reading this thread makes me so happy. I love all of the adorable names and the stories that go with them!

We've been calling it 'the nib' since twizzlers/nibs are my husband's favourite treat.

ljs4117 · October 2013

We called DD raisin.

We don't have a name for this one yet other than "new baby". We will come up with something.

BruiserB · October 2013

So far I've been calling this one little bean. The hubs doesn't really bring it up much ... He seems to be still waiting for confirmation that this one is sticking around

erineileen317 · October 2013

We called DD gummy bear as well, after the first u/s. I'm not much of a nickname person so we'll see.

ahastin1 · October 2013

Mine's Little Bugger. I call it this more in my head than anything else since most people don't even know yet. I also keep saying her because I keep having very vivid dreams about a baby girl. Strange because we've been wanting a boy...but, now it's stuck in my head that it's a girl!

Gbseder · October 2013

When my sister found out about her's, she said it was the size of a sea-monkey, which ended up sticking! Sea-monkey lol. For me, as lame as this is, we've always called each other "bear" as a nickname so obviously, ours has come "baby bear"

BootsCafe · October 2013

I settled on sprout, too....and here I thought I had made that up! Haha!

purtz · October 2013

I like June Bug- can I borrow that?!

deepoceanmama · October 2013

DH and I have been calling the baby "Franklin." I'm really not sure where it came from, but DH started it one day, and it was the first time he really seemed to acknowledge that we're having a baby, so I totally let it stick. So, until we know the sex, we have a little Franklin.
