Don't you HATE that? I had a friend that was like 5-6 weeks ahead of me and she was just over half my size when I was 30 weeks.

They're right, that's about what I looked like at 15w!

Thanks, but it's true!  I did start off very thin, so I'm just an average weight of 152lbs now.  ;)   My good friend told me the other day that I am huge and this is what she looks like at full term.  Peoples perceptions on pregnancy are all so different, it's almost amusing.  In one day, while pregnant with #2 I had one person tell me that I, "looked like I was going to pop" and another say, "you're so tiny for 7mo".  Ha ha.. Who knows?  :)

You do NOT look like you're full-term (your friend must have been itty-bitty!)  I think we all look "just right".  Everyone's different!  My neighbors sometimes tell me I look huge, and I just say "nah, I have a LONG way to go!"

You all look lovely!!

Coming up on 28 weeks

I've had a few people ask me in the last day or two if I was due soon.  I really think that people have no idea what a full term pregnant person actually looks like.

OMG! Sarah! I LOVE your picture! HAHAHA Not only do you have a cute bump, but your daughter holding an unwilling cat under the armpits is just SOOO hysterical!

[crazykittymomma]

[IwannaBanRN]

Here's a belly shot take at 29/30 weeks, last week.  I henna'ed it for an art event I was going to be at. 

Sure is a large pic, lol.  You can see my poor stretch marks under the henna!  I am bad about taking belly shots.  This was only the second one for the whole pregnancy.  I will have DH or someone take some cool artsy pics outside once I'm closer to November.  Maybe twilight-on-halloween!  

[Jaimee]

Beautiful belly art, Krystal!

[xakana]

I finally took a belly photo like I did every week of Naomi's pregnancy, lol. Here's 30 weeks!

[Caracol8]

This is today at the beginning of week 31.  I thought it might be fun to compare my expanding bump with my 7lb dog.  He does not like posing next to the potential usurper...

30 weeks 4 days. About to hop on the treadmill.  DH lugged it in yesterday so I could walk/jog in close proximity to a bathroom at all times . Love that guy!

[IwannaBanRN]

You're so lucky! I had to stop jogging at around 21 weeks because it was hurting me.

[Abraisme]

I agree, I couldn't imagine jogging at 30w!  I had to stop walking long distances by 15w because of psd.  Now I'm lucky if I can walk a mile before I'm really sore.  Ah well, I'll get back in shape as soon as the baby come.  :)

I don't go very far - maybe a mile with TONS of walk breaks.  I was an avid runner pre-pregnancy and I miss going those long distances SO much.  But the anxiety of leaving the house for my walks/jogs is too great, cause there's not a bathroom every hundred feet or so!
