So, we may be putting the cart before the horse here, but I was wondering about this.
DP and I are TTC and have been passing the TWW with everything from imagining symptoms to talking about how we imagine life once our little one is here.
So, we were discussing what the LO might call us one day and going over the names we've heard, and none of them really seem to fit. DP is pretty (or handsomely, I suppose) butch, and while she doesn't identify as trans, she is often mistaken for a man and is extremely comfortable in her masculinity. We are leaning towards just letting our babe figure it out on his/her own (she/he may be able to teach us a thing or two) - but I was curious if anyone know of any women who go by dad. I know the lesbian dad blog writer goes by baba (which we would prefer to no use), but would love to hear any input or other suggestions! Thanks!
