For some reason, my bump looks funny from the side in photos. Maybe I'm just to dang picky

17 weeks today! We took this one just a few minutes ago, actually.

I am loving how we're all carrying so differently. It's interesting how unique all of our bellies are, even though we're in pretty similar EDD ranges.

Agreed! It's wonderful to see all the different ways a pregnant body can be beautiful.

17 weeks 3 days. I realize my husband's old pajama pants make me look like I have no ass lol! And please don't mind my just-woke-up face.

It really is fascinating how we all carry. I am carrying incredibly high. I suspect it has something to do with my short stature, but I don't know. I think I've seen people carry much lower that weren't much taller.

[mrs_mandolini]

Can't see it, right?



Now you can.



14 weeks 4 days, second baby.

[mrs_mandolini]

Really, that's all guts & fat that's been pushed upward. It's very squishy. Looking forward to a "real" belly that is solid.

I bet it also has something to do with twins. They are much harder to hide!

Here is me at 18 weeks.


I, too, love seeing how everyone looks so different at similar stages.

Me too! I look super-pregnant but it's mostly displaced pooch

[sjdragonfly]

I feel the same way! haha. I have a tendency towards bloating anyway so I figure it's half bloat, half baby. 

[deborahbgkelly]

Quite possibly. I would love to see how other twin mamas are carrying, so maybe I should start a twin pregnancy belly thread. I don't know.

Here I am at 16 weeks exactly!  My belly actually feels quite solid most of the time!

This is me at 13 weeks. I'm much, much more HUGE now. I'll take a new pic on Friday, when I will be 15 weeks. I've gotten so fat (How is that possible? I still throw up every day at least once.), but both my OB and MFM doctor said to gain as much as I can now because in a few weeks the babies will squish my stomach and I won't be able to eat. I feel very much like I'm doing something wrong, trying to gain weight. But I want fat babies, so I will keep eating.

[deborahbgkelly]

Kinza- Glad to see you here. It does look like twin mamas carry a bit higher. I also forgot how close our due dates are. I was 15 weeks yesterday.

[mrs_mandolini]

I feel weird "trying" to gain weight, too.. my 1st pg I was so sick that I weighed 10 lb less than my pre-pg weight, a week after giving birth. This time I am MUCH better medicated and have already gained 10 lb. I guess that will put me right at the 30 lb mark if I keep it up.. which will really be a sight. Well, at least boobs come with the fat!

[MaerynPearl]

I feel terrible eating as much as I do... even if it's all healthy (brewer diet... have to eat a LOT)

I lost 40 pounds last year, gaining tummy is hurting me emotionally, I busted my butt for 4 months to get down to a not-terrible size... and it's all coming back!

Mine, 17 w

17 weeks! :)  Yeehaw!

[lactomom]

Friday is normally bump day. However, it's going to be so hectic it might not get done. 13 weeks 6 days
