Baby Nicknames

Do you have a nickname that you call this baby while waiting to know the sex and/or picking an actual name?

Re: Baby Nicknames

    We did IVF so we have embryo pictures from DD and this baby from the day we transferred them. We called DD “Amoeba” because that’s what embryos look like and we shortened it to “Amebes”. This one we call “Emby”’short for Embryo.

    We call him/her Superbaby. My dad calls him/her The Kid.

    We're calling this one 'Shrewlet' or 'Baby Shrew' as 'shrews' is our family term of endearment as of late.
  • Options
    I mostly just say “the baby” but sometimes refer to it as “nugget.” Maybe once I know the sex, I’ll have a better nickname. I don’t think we ever had a nickname for DS.

    Nuggz. We even have a hash tag - #blamethenuggz - for whenever I'm texting hubby about pregnancy symptoms.

    @babyroma We have the same issue with our dogs—they’re “baby-girl!”

    And of course “baby” was my husband’s previous term of endearment for me (one of them), so now I’m “baby-mama” lol

    @kiwi2628 Fergle the Fetus made me laugh out loud at the gym haha. 

    We've been calling ours Chia or ChiChi because it was the size of a chia seed when we found out. We found out so early - at 3.5 weeks - so he/she was pretty tiny!

    @Swiftlet We also do the fruit thing for the nickname!

    With DS, we had picked out his name at week 21ish and then called him “C” to each other since that is his first initial. I bet we’ll do the same thing... just have to wait a few months...

    We really need to find a nickname because we want to find out the sex but keep it a surprise for everyone else. Right now it's "the kid" or "the parasite" when my nausea is really bad :D
    Some of the names you guys picked are hilarious.

    @brookert615 yes that way there is still an element of surprise but it will make our life easier when the time comes to pick a name. I also prefer gender neutral baby items so that works perfect.

    Embie. We did IVF and I started referring to the embryo as embie and the nickname stuck (for me). My husband just says the baby. We know it’s a girl but usually don’t refer to gender. 🤷🏼‍♀️
