19 Week Bump.

Thursday, February 17, 2011


As I was running out the door for yoga this morning, I caught a glimpse of my 19 week bump in the mirror and I figured that this would be the perfect time to fulfill some of the requests that my friends and family members have been sending me to show proof I really am growing a little one inside my belly.

So, here it is, in all it's glory, the (almost) 19 week baby bump. 


I can't leave out the aerial view... and I'm happy to report that I can still see my toes!


As an aside, I have to tell you that I am LOVING yoga right now. Other than the fact that I have to pee all the time, and that I can (and do) eat everything in sight, I don't really have much of a chance, on a daily basis, to remember that I am actually pregnant. I am so busy chasing my little man that I rarely have time to remember that there really is a little human in there. In yoga, however, I get an hour to really connect with my body, and I have found this is the time that my little guy likes to do back flips and somersaults. I guess it's his way of reminding me that, "hey Mom, I'm in here." I now refer to it as our one-on-one time, and I really do treasure it. To think I spent all my time swimming while I was pregnant with the LM, not feeling anything. That will definitely reserved until the last trimester this time around.

So there you have it, the first bump pic. Things are only going to get a lot bigger, and sadly messier, from here on out. Stay tuned...

I never realized how extremely skinny you are. No offense intended, but did any medical professional ever advise you to gain more weight when you were going through your secondary infertility? It could definitely have been a factor.

Anon, I've always been pretty small, but more because of bone structure than anything else. I eat often, and healthily, and exercise, but nothing extreme. I was the same size when I conceived the LM, and the baby I miscarried. My doc looked into it, had me gain 5 lbs, but since I was ovulating regularly, and at the same time each month (all be it late in the cycle) they considered it not to be an issue. Weirdly, I was the same weight at every apt with the LM as I have with this one. I think the angle of the picture may be making things look a little bit less real than they are in "real" life.

Thank you all for your sweet comments! I'll try to update with pics as this belly grows!!!

Love it, you look terrific. Any cravings yet? Mine were cheese and milk - the baby was 8 lbs 9 oz and now she's 16 and 5'7 inches.

Enjoy!!!!
