My Baby Bump Slideshow
-
Week 4
3 weeks 5 days.. This is ALL bloat!
-
Week 5
Still bloated but not as bad. Apparently I took this photo a day late. I guess I need to take my photos on Sundays.
-
Week 6
I am much bigger this week but that has to do with the amazing amount of food I downed this weekend. I am up 5.5lbs since Thursday morning :-/. Not good. I need to get back on the eating healthy horse!! I am grossing myself out.
-
Week 7
I thought taking the weekly photos would be fun... instead its just depressing.. I just look fatter... There is no bump... just fat and bloat. Hmm.... I kind of want to stop but I know 20 years from now I'll be glad I did this.
-
Week 8
Getting Fatter....... I am going to have to buy new pants next weekend. My SIL said I can have all her maternity clothes but I am embarassed to ask for them at 8 weeks...er.. 9 weeks next weekend. My bloat bump is sore now and tight clothing just isn't going to work.
-
Week 9
This side view doesn't show how disgustingly wide I am getting. I really thought I would be so happy and blissful being pg, but I HATE how I look. I really disgust myself.
-
Week 10
I cheated, I should have taken this last night but I took it this morning. I was so bloated last night.. I was embrassed to record how far my belly was protruding. This was before I'd eaten anything this am (8/5) so its not a true account as I've been taking all my bumpdates Sunday afternoons..
-
Week 11
Getting thicker.. Ugh! Up to a D cup now and fastening my pants with a hair band around the button, through the hole and back around the button.. I have to do this all day, not just in the afternoon now. Maybe next week I'll start wearing maternity jeans.
-
Week 12
You can't see it but I have the start of a teenie tiny baby bump just above my pelvis that dives back in like 3.5" below my belly button. I wiill start wearing maternity pants tomorrow. Still feeling very fat and bloated.
-
Week 13
I just keep getting FATTER!! I want a baby bump already!
-
Week 14
I was super bloated but needed to take the photo so I am not sure how true the representation is.. I guess we'll see next week. I feel sooooo fat :( I get teary eyed when I look in the mirror. So many people haven't even gained weight at this point in their pregnancy....
-
Week 15
I hope I look a little smaller this week and last week was mostly bloat :( Ugh.......... I just want to be able to feel my friggin uterus! I still can't!!
-
Week 16
Belly is a tad smaller than last week. Not very bloated today.
-
Week 17
I think I am about the same as last week, maybe a smidge bigger. I am tired of all this bloat.. hopefully in the next couple of weeks the ol' uterus will pop out!
-
Week 18
Bigger than last week :( If it was actual baby/uterus I'd be happy.. I'm afraid its just fat......
-
Week 19
I feel so fat and gross. I've also come to the conclusion this week that I should have started these bump photos with a shirt on..... I'm so self concious I don't want people seeing my fatness.
-
Week 20
OMG I swear I am not really this big. I just at the biggest Mexican food late lunch of my life!!! I was sooo full and bloated afterwards. I know my weigh in on Wednesday will be horrible regardless though.
-
Week 21
I swear I get bigger everyday!
-
Week 22
I am not sure how much longer my pants are going to fit. And I must say I made a big mistake taking these without my shirt on...
-
Week 23
I think I might have to start these photos with a shrit on eventually....
-
Week 24
I feel like I look more fat than I do pregnant........
-
Week 25
I hate how my back seems to be stretching around to my front. I guess that's part of growing out though...
-
Week 26
The lines on my back are from laying on the couch just prior to taking the photo. I don't think I look any bigger than last week.
-
Week 27
A litte bigger this week. Kinda of getting nervous thinking how big I'm gonna get!
-
Week 28
Looks like my belly is a little farther out this week. I feel like most of the weight I'm gaining is belly weight now. At least I hope so!
-
Week 29
I have a feeling by the time she is born I was be GIGANTIC! I am hoping to avoid stretch marks because I don't have any new ones from pregnany yet (just old ones from being a fatty). Fingers crossed!
-
Week 30
Feeling huge..........
-
Week 31
A bit bigger!!
-
Week 32
Its getting hard to bend over. I no longer lace up my work boots.. just wrap the laces around my ankle and tie them. I don't know how I will survive another 8 weeks.....
-
Week 33
I cannot imagine getting any bigger. I can't believe I have 7 weeks left :-/
-
Week 34
So I've definitely developed either new stretch marks or enlarged existing ones (from before I was preggers). I was dreading this day. They are on my hips though. Praying my under belly makes it through unscathed. Most likely won't happen though............
-
Week 35
I think she's dropped a little bit. I've been having lots of braxton hicks - both where my belly gets REALLY hard and where is feels like I have menstrual cramps. Maybe she is planning on coming a bit early?
-
Week 36
I really botched this photo.. Didn't zoom in enough.. because of that I almos look smaller this week. I lost a big part of my mucus plug today so I'd guess I'm at most 2-3 weeks from delivery!
-
Week 37
I never thought I'd get this big. Its funny how my body is able to keep getting bigger and BIGGER! I can't imagine 3 more weeks of this. Stretch marks are really coming in on the hips :( But its for my little girl - so totally worth it! 3 more weeks!!!
-
Week 38
I am getting to big. It amazing how fast I've grown over the past few weeks. I am torn between wanting her here now and having a little more time to prepare. 38 weeks today so technically she could come at anytime. I pray that I don't end up with too many stretch marks!
