We called her Nugget. Even once we knew the gender, she went by Nuggs. We didn't call her by her name till she was born since we kept it a secret.

Dd calls him baby brother.
We call him blueberry a lot of the time. It's his fruit size from when we first saw his heartbeat (after bleeding and on our third ultrasound.)
We've recently been calling him by his name wih dd.

Mostly "baby sister" for my two year old, we've know the sex since 13 weeks.
My first baby I called Jelly Bean in Utero.

@Truth Bombs: Yep
I figure when people start asking us about names, that might shut them up.

@Smurfette: That's what we called my daughter in utero- we didn't know what we were having.
This one we call weasel (because that was my daughter's name suggestion).

Just "the baby" between DH and myself and "baby sister" when talking to DD.

We haven't started tackling the name debate yet and have our gender scan next week, so this one has been Bean all the way through so far!

E started out being whatever fruit/vegetable he was that week ("the sweet pea" "blueberry" "olive" etc), but eventually became McBebe.
So far this one is just "the baby" (occasionally I call it McNugget). We're hoping E will have an easier time grasping the concept of there being a baby if we keep calling it that.

We called it "frank" until we found out the sex, since then we have called it by the name we picked.

So far it's just been "The baby". Once we know the gender (T minus 6 days!!!!!) And we have a name we will probably call it by that.

The baby. Same with C when I was pregnant with her. This time we are finding it the sex but I still won't call it by name until it's born.
Turns out I do have feeling on the sex since I just came really close to writing she.

Pain in the ass.
We haven't gotten far enough in for a nickname to stick, but this past week we've been saying a lot of the above.

LO1 was June Bug (she was due in June). We have decided to call this one Cricket

"It"
I wish we had something cuter, but we don't at this point. We're team green, so we really should have something - hopefully something will catch on.

We have one boy and are expecting another one. We gave them fake names that are overly masculine to use with friends, etc. Similar to something a professional wrestler, body builder, or strong man competition participant would use. Our two year old commonly refers to baby brother with the exaggerated fake name when telling strangers and acquaintances. It's really funny.

Cletus. Because we're fancy.
Once we knew the gender, it was BGH (baby girl "last name").

It had been "the nightmare" since before I conceived, then we decided people might misinterpret that. We called it the parasite for a while, until we told people I was pregnant, and my dad DID NOT like that nickname. Now it's one of those two when DH and I are alone, or Baby, The Wee One, Little Sibling (to the dog), or just Fetus. My mom tends to call it by the fruit of the week (currently an heirloom tomato). I thought we would have settled in on one NN by now, but nothing has stuck so far.

First, she was "squirt," before we knew the sex. Then, she was "Baby Girl" or "Baby Girl Lastname." We still call her baby girl a lot, even though she's 6 months old!

I called her a shrimp at first b/c that's what it looked like on one of my early scans! Then I'm pretty sure it was just baby, and then her name since we already had it picked out.

Munchkin or Monkey. I love donuts (obsessed, actually) and baby is the Vietnamese zodiac sign of Monkey and DH is half Vietnamese
