My thoughts on pregnancy, in pictures

Ah, the changing of my body. I take you back a few weeks to the beginning of week 17. I believe you can barely tell that the bump on my lower abdomen is indeed a "baby bump".

And now, Maternity clothes. I'm not a fan of them (yet) and was not excited about wearing them. At this point (in the picture below) I didn't absolutely need them, but they were more comfortable than my normal jeans.Here we are in week 18, somewhere. I just worked out and you can kind of see the bump. If you can't, it's okay. I know I'm pregnant :)
This is me trying to be excited about "the secret belly", which I actually don't mind too much. These jeans don't fit too well. I got the Medium at the advice of the sales woman and "super stretch" because I would need them - right, in my 8th month! My butt or hips or small baby bump can't hold these babies up at all! Anyways - Patrick tucked my shirt into the jeans for a more dramatic look :)


On the rope swing. Joyful. Swinging, fall weather, leaves changing, rolls on my body abounding. You may have to click on this picture to see the roll effect. But I'm smiling and that's all that matters.

You look great! The baby bump is growning slow now, but in a few weeks it will pop out so fast! At least that's how it seemed to happen with me:)
