The Beginning of the Belly Shots


I am 17 weeks today. (Well, 19 weeks if you go by the OB's last due date). Today, I started getting comments from people at work who hadn't known I was pregnant, so I guess I'm not hiding it very well anymore. Not that I was hiding my belly, I'm actually quite proud and excited of the little human I'm percolating inside of me, but just last time I didn't start really showing until about 19 weeks, so I just didn't want to be sooooo much bigger than last time. I wouldn't say I'm a lot bigger, but I did pull out my pregnancy journal, where I saved my weekly belly shots and we didn't even start doing them until week 18, and I feel like I looked like that size this time around even before I was pregnant! With latter pregnancies though, woman tend to show earlier - it's like the body is already sort of stretched out and remembers the whole routine. I will flaunt my belly with pride, starting with my first belly shot for this go around.
