What nickname did you give your baby?

My baby is 10 weeks old and I don't think I've called him his actual name once yet!

Pudding
Pudding pie
Fluffy bum
Sweetie
Gorgeous boy

These all suit a snuggly baby far better than an actual name Smile

I thought you meant before he / she was born!
Ours was Ali (for alien) in utero and chemical Ali after he was born!

No 2 was baked bean and baby bob after birth.

My baby Holly was always (and still is) called Oils.

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 05/04/2019 23:37

Dc1 Spud (not a clue)
Dc2 monkey (he had the longest arms & was still all fuzzy at birth)
Dc3 Dink (even though she was my biggest at 6lb 13oz)
Dc4 Bear (because when you sat him up to wind him he sounded as if he had a growling box like in a teddy bear)
Dc5 Dil (again not sure)

All are still in use.

Loads, four DC these are just a selection from the four,
Plumpkin, Pudding, Puds, Cross Noddy, Rumpole of the Bailey, Big G, Snarlax, Minion, Beanbag, Boodle, Babbaloo, Bam Bam, Big Red, Mini 'their name', Senior Snuggle, Drools Holland, Slobbers, Butters... there are loads more but they involve their names. Some of them we still use even though the older two are 18 and 15!

Dobinette · 06/04/2019 00:15

Tiny, little legs, snuffles, scaliwag

Strokethefurrywall · 06/04/2019 00:15

Mine were both Pup, and now they're referred to as Pup or cub.

My parents nicknames for DSis and I were Big Fat Podge (my older sister) and Little Fat Podge. Which was ironic because I only weighed 19lbs when I was 1 year old. Sister was a total Buddha though...

Oh, and Grumpy Chops
