What to call an unborn child?

[Damage]

I am 10 weeks pregnant.

Maybe it's just me, but I'm finding it difficult to know what to call my unborn child at this stage. It doesn't feel right to call it a baby, child or even fetus.

Any suggestions?

Peanut. I had one of those apps that tells you what fruit they're the same size as each week, and when I first started using it she was a peanut.

Now she's called Bob. Sometimes with a blackadder voice, which she doesn't understand yet

Mine were called Prawn, Squid, oiseau and bean.

I read that in Blackadder’s voice

My eldest was puzzle.
Second was lumpy.

Ours was called The Baby. With capitals.

My now-3yo was bean from very early on and still is now but this time around, I’m ever so boring and it’s just Bump or Baby!

Bubba

Ours was called Bod.

I called mine ‘The Bun’

The bump, the bean, the parasite, the entity, thing. I used all at some point.

Mine was The Unborn

Ours was ' the baby ' but then he was born it was a weird transition to calling him by his name. It's all a bit nebulous before they're here! A friend's
DC to be was called 'bumper' which I liked!

We mostly referred to it as the bump or the baby. Occasionally bean.

Bubs

I had a Mungo.

Ours was known as Pitt the Embryo.

For me it was the baby. My sister refused to say that and instead would only refer to him as "fetish" because "it's not a really baby yet, it's just a fetish". No, we don't get on.

Mine was the 'blasted cyst' (from blastocyst).

Mine was called Dodie

Whatever fruit size they were that week

Mine was just Baby, The Baby, Babba or Babs.

I'm highly imaginative that way. 🤣

In what sort of context you will need to call it anything? "I am pregnant" covers most occasions, I would have thought.

Surely you mean fetus?
