The BELLY PHOTO Thread

[Abraisme]

I like the idea of having one thread to post all the belly photos.  With my last pregnancy I took a picture almost every week  (CLICK HERE TO SEE MY LAST PICS).  While I'm not sure that I will take a picture every week this time, I'm going to try to keep up with it as much as possible. 

Feel free to post your belly pics and we can all share our growing bellies!

6w4d - My stomach started out flat, so I'm feeling HUGE already!

[CDsMom1031]

My turn!!! I'm 7w5d. Pre-baby weight: 145. Current: 155. =( I give partial blame to the fact that I quit smoking when I found out I was pregnant and quitting smoking always = Weight gain.

Notice my little pudge? LOL

I've also gone up a cup size in my bra. 36D to a 38DD. =( DH loves it. I say, "OW!!!". I finally bought a bra that fits last night and it's wonderful.

And yes, I know I'm totally tatted up. I hope, hope, hope they don't get too destroyed with the pregnancy. LOL My mama doesn't have any stretch marks, so let's hope I'm just as lucky. *Crosses fingers*

I'm bloated, so I'm not posting pics of that, LOL. You can see my pics from last go here

TTCChloeOrConner~ Your tattoos will get big but go back to normal after baby. I have one tattoo on my stomach that has gone through two pregnancies, where i was all baby.

I'm going to wait til I'm  11wks after my first visit to take a picture. I have some fluff from previous babies even though I'm starting at roughly the same weight, if i don't suck my stomach in i look hugely pregnant.

I never really tracked week to week but I plan on doing it this time. Maybe every two weeks. Here is me at 36 weeks with my son in 2006.

FWIW, I'm heavily tattooed and mine didn't change during or after pregnancy (not even my tummy tattoos)

That makes me feel better. Thank you!

[MsVyky]

Worst case Ontario, they need a few touch-ups later, right? :)

[Lula's Mom]

Worst case Ontario!  That must be an auto-correct, right?

My belly tattoo didn't change permanently either, no worries.

Trailer Park Boys reference LOL. I tend to speak in Ricky-isms. hahha

[nearlyelated]

I love that line!  Common phrase in our household.  That and 'dressed all over and zesty mordant' 

[Ajbaby]

This is seven weeks

[Lula's Mom]

I had to look up Trailer Park Boys, I've never heard of it! I guess it's exclusive to Canada. Sounds funny.

[MsVyky]

There is nothing in life funnier than Trailer Park Boys. I highly suggest downloading.. That is if you aren't easily offended, because the language is vile and the subjects matter is.... well.. trash TV at it's finest ;)

So that's what I miss now that I live in the U.S.!  Gotta download it and see what my fellow Canucks are all laughing about

5w4d.  My belly is actually sticking out under my belly button - had to switch to looser pants as my tight jeans cut in too much.  I think I'm going to show early this time around! 

[Motivated Mama]

I was losing weight before this oregnancy and am still too self-conscious to share pics yet, but I want to subscribe to this thread and I'll start posting when we're all a little further

[IwannaB anRN]

GenomicsGirl- you look AWESOME!

I'm still irked. I too was still losing. I was 10 lb under my prepregnancy weight, fitting into size 1 jeans with no muffin top and frickin' PROUD of it.. Thennnnn.. BFP. LOL

Let's hope I A) Don't gain 50 pounds with this one like I did with my DD

and B) It doesn't take me 12+ months to take it off again

I've actually lost 3 pounds in this pregnancy so far- last time by 8 weeks, I'd gained 7. hahah

[GenomicsGirl]

Thank you  I'm not normally one to publish photos this early. My family still doesn't know. 

I'm not sure how to tell them ...
