That’s so cute!

Ours is monster Grin

Last one was "Alien" or "Atticus"

This one is so far "Spud". Got my 12 week scan today so will decide later on what they look like.

SamStephens · 20/02/2019 06:50

Mine was nugget until we found out the sex... now we've named him we call him that in private but haven't told anyone else❤

TwittleBee · 20/02/2019 09:41

Pumper Smile from the first time we saw his heart pumping away at 6 weeks x

MrsReader · 20/02/2019 10:48

Peanut 🥜

TurquoiseWeekend · 20/02/2019 10:50

Ours is Pebble. It stuck when we told my sister I was pregnant and she had a dream we'd called the real baby that! Pebble is due one week today and I'm dying to meet him or her now 😫

Kescilly · 20/02/2019 10:50

We never had one! Other people gave it names and it sort of weirded me out since we didn’t have one. Now we just call her by name at home, when no one is around.

AuntMarch · 20/02/2019 11:52

I just tend to say "baby" or "bump" - I'm not anti nickname but nothing evolved.

newbabyyy2019 · 20/02/2019 12:01

Ours is peanut. Kind of stuck after OH kissed my belly and said "hello peanut" Smile

Trimusical · 20/02/2019 14:07

Beanie for us too! And here we were thinking we were being bloody original! Grin Grin Grin Grin

TickleMeEmo · 20/02/2019 14:08

The kraken... feels like it’s all limbs in there!

Bunnybaubles · 20/02/2019 14:08

DD was Button all the way through the pregnancy. She's 8 months old and we still call her Button. Calling her by her actual name just sounds strange 😂

Because of this we decided not to give our current bump a nickname 😁

TickleMeEmo · 20/02/2019 14:09

Although earlier on in the pregnancy it was wee beanie.

AuntMarch · 20/02/2019 14:10

Almost everyone I've known nickname a bump has been Beanie, Pip or Peanut.

HappyMama01 · 20/02/2019 14:21

Squish. ❤️

SnowdropFox · 20/02/2019 14:29

Junior as we didn't know what we were having Smile

FloatingthroughSpace · 20/02/2019 14:31

My bumps were called Opus, Mungo, Fred and Boris. The resulting children have different names :)

Milligan123 · 20/02/2019 14:33

Bubs or bubbalishious 😂
