BNL Chatter / Archives / What to Call the Belly Bean

DeeK May 7th 5:48 pm

Okay, well, I meant to do this several days ago but got busy at work and then just forgot.

I'm going to have a baby.  My husband and I found out about 2 or 3 weeks ago that we're expecting, and this is a real miracle of a thing since doctors told me 13 years ago that there was no chance for me to get pregnant naturally.  Hubs and I decided to not have kids, or if we wanted to later on in life, to adopt.

I'm not 9 - 10 weeks along, we have a picture of belly bean, and I was going to put up a survey on the chatter to see… shall we keep calling it belly bean, or are their other names people like while we don't know the gender?

ITTY BITTY CHARMED ONE!!!!

(Ibco for short.  :)


Considering this little one is a miracle baby and you've now been blessed or "charmed" with her grace…then I say Ibco.

Survey over.

Have a nice day.  :)

A friend of mine called hers (whilst in the belly) Matumbo.

No idea why, I think they saw it in a baby name book.

She later became Isabella

Oh Deek, congrats!!!!!!!  That's so wonderful!!!!!!

I love "Belly Bean", that's adorable.  We called Amelia "Pumpkin Seed".....  she wasn't quite big enough to be a punkin and we found out on Halloween that we were expecting, so… pumpkin seed it was.  LOL.

Then I'll go with belly bean and ibco… Once we find out if its a he or a she, then the real planning begins.

She's not much of a bean anymore though…

we've been thinking on names, Hubby likes Owen for a boy and Ryan for a girl - Ryan being after my personal trainer…

"Belly bean" makes me think of flatulence.

sprung May 8th 1:16 pm

I love boy names for girls.  My stylists name was Ryan - and so was her boyfriend! ha

belly bean is cool..  my neice was pregnant with twins.. and while she was carrying them.. she called the Han and Chewie… lol

DeeK May 12th 2:42 pm

hubbs and I have a bet going on whether or not its a boy or a girl.  He says boy, I say girl - only a month or so till we find out for sure!

Anyone else want in on the betting?  I'll answer any questions if you need to ask to form a guess.
