Pet names for bump!!

[Effielou]

Ours is squiggle-- for DD it was flump and DS was bumpkin!!!

Our DS was The Spiderpig as an early scan showed a blob seemingly with lots of legs! As pg progressed this got shortened to just The Pig.

Sabs, yes, I live in Stokey. Where are you?

poppy seed.............due to the size!!!

im in clapton hackneybird when are you due? i'm 18 weeks and due sept 26th...you having the baby at homerton?

Sorry to everyone else for hijacking the thread!

Juwesm, we were also calling him 'Skeletor' for the same reason!

Mostly it's 'the baby', but I confess at times I refer to him as 'little shit' or 'sneaky shit' because he always stops kicking as soon as DH tries to feel it. [Extra extra extra bad mother emoticon]

And on occasion he is known as 'the little bladder-stomper'. He has his own song 'The Bladder Stomp' to the tune of 'Lambeth Walk'.

ours is Orson, from Mork and Mindy. It's from DH talking to him/her. 'Mork calling Orson...come in Orson'.

At our first scan (had an early scan at 8 weeks), our LO looked like a jellybean so was called JB initially. Then after an Amnio, found out that we were having a pink one and JB sounded a bit too masculine, so she's been Jelly eversince.

Even all our family and friends call her Jelly, so I can see that sticking as a nickname when she's born...

Lizlemon I love it!!! I used to love Mork and Mindy!!!

Hi Sabs

I'm 16 weeks, yes planning on Homerton, only been there for one MW appt and a scan but all seems to be good so far.

We've called our bump Squiglet, named like most at the time of an early scan as she was just a squiggle.

hackneybird we're only 2 weeks apart...who knows, we may meet on the wards

Checkout daisybump.blogspot.com/ for a daft cartoon pregnancy. Might make you giggle!

There is an entry on 'naming the foetus'[!] in it.

My first bump was 'Pudding' as when we found out I was pregnant she was the size of a grain of rice (pudding) then a plum and so on until we thought I'd look like I'd eaten all the puddings near the end. All my friends called the bump Pudding too.

This one is Dumpling.

mine was boring too - jellybean.

My first bump was called freddie, convinced i was having a boy, turn out to be a dd.

2nd bump was called blossom, my 1st dd called it that and it stuck.

current bump has been called bean at present, may change when my dd's find out.

has the nicknames you gave bumps ever carried on after birth??

ds was flipper as thats all he did flip around

loobyloo Mine have never stuck DD is now chicken ( as she used to peck like one when she was a hungry newborn )or flossie.
DS is weasel!!!

mine is called Brutus.....

Little Weed - hence my user nick name!!

My bump has been nicknamed 'Ralph' by DP. Apprently ralph means to be sick and I did have really bad morning sickness the first few months.

Even the DC call the bump Ralph now though!

Ha - I started calling it "Bump" and my mum changed it to "Project Nelson". I get texts from my friends now saying, "How are you? And how is Nelson?" HA!

Mine is called Bob, as it sort of rhymes with our surname it sounds good

I haven't named it anything yet - but thank you all for cheering me up with all of your nick names

Mine's Arf, as in "number three and a arf".
