Yeah....after 40 has DEFINITELY been noticeably miserable (more so this week than any other)!!! In fact, stretch marks didn't appear until 42... Boo! Thought I could get away with it...

Posted this on the chat thread, but wanted to put it here too. 31 weeks.

Great bellies!! So amazing to see the progression. Here's my 32 week shot on our camping trip up the coast.

I love this thread and am finally ready to contribute my own photos!

I asked DH to take the files and make me sequence shots ... complete with high-tech face blurring :p

These are both 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, and (today) 32 weeks. This baby was conceived in FL, while we were living in MA in an apt that doesn't appear here - 8, 12, and 16 weeks are in our temporary MA sublet, 20 weeks is back in FL over the holidays, 24 weeks is in our first temporary apt in Germany (should have been in Rome but I forgot to pack my black outfit so it is a day or two late!),then 28 and 32 at HOME where baby will be actually be born 

I am crazy in love with my round belly <3<3<3

PS Moriah your pics are always so beautiful! I want to get some scenic ones like those ... if it ever gets warm enough that I go out without my long down coat!

This is at 33 weeks.

Everyone, including many, many strangers, tell me that I don't look pregnant from the back, so I had my husband document me from 4 sides:

34 weeks and I am SO OVER being pregnant. I truly don't have a lot to complain about, but my lower back hurts, my joints hurt, I have to pee all the time, and sleeping is a challenge (both pain in my hips/legs and insomnia that I've never dealt with before).

As we near the end, are there any pictures you would recommend taking? I never even thought I'd document weekly, and then it became a fun thing to do. I never thought of taking a picture from the back until just this week, too.

[Quinalla]

I do recommend taking pictures weekly or at least every two weeks at the end and make sure you take one at least before you go off to the hospital when you are in labor so you can have the final pregnancy shot! And I agree, you don't look pregnant from the back, you are all belly jess

Love the progression pictures Marie!

Everyone looks so gorgeous

[PhilsBabyMama]

Eeek! Everyone's bellies are looking fabulous! I love it! Jess, your belly is amazing!

I'll have to get a belly shot up this week. My husband has been out in the field training (Army) for 16 days this month, so I don't have anyone to snap a pic for me at the moment. I really just can't believe how close we're all getting! Quinella's right about taking more pics now. Since the baby's putting on weight so rapidly now, I have a feeling my belly will start growing faster, too.

I'm the same way and was the whole time with my first pregnancy. My mom videotaped me one week before I had my son and it's pretty funny to see the difference when I turned around to face the front:)

I was visiting with my family last week, so I got my sister to take a shot of me at 31 weeks. Already I'm feeling like is it even possible to get any bigger? :)

[nstewart]

I am carrying much more in front this time than last time too.  I'll have to get DH to do a "from behind" shot. 

Everyone looks great! lisedea, thinking of you and your boys!  Is your "due date" next week already?

SB, you look like you have a little ball under that shirt!  Nothing else about you looks pregnant!!  And I am jealous that it's warm enough where you are to be outside in a tank top.  There's still snow on the ground here and spring seems to have decided on a very late arrival!  At least it's been sunny, but it's still very chilly.

Aw, that's very sweet! And don't be too jealous of where I am (Vancouver Island in the photo) because you don't see that I just took off the heavier shirt I was wearing so you could see the bump and the snow we had just melted that morning:) It's been a fairly mild winter here, but a pretty slow spring so far.
