Belly Pics?! « Back to Group Discussions

Anybody have any to start with?  We're all far enough along now that it might be fun to start tracking. :)

Here are mine, minus wk 4 and 5 since 5 didn't line up and I'm picky and couldn't just skip from 4 to 6. LOL  I've done a progression with each pregnancy, and I do always take them first thing in the morning on my "week" day, but I've finally lightened up to where I don't feel like I need to be in the same exact outfit every week. LOL (perfectionist...what!?!)  NOT thrilled with them, as my body shape is so different than previous years...I work out regularly but haven't been able to lose ANY weight in a year and a half with my thyroid issues.  So defeating.  Oh well.

(small so that no one has to be forced to look at the details of my stretched skin LOL)

This is what I look liked fully clothed...well, last week, I've grown a bit since then.

My uterus feels giant in there, but it's still mostly "inside", as when I lay flat I still have to palpate for it...it doesn't just show itself. ;)

I took one for 8 weeks

I love these threads! I'm not taking pictures yet as I'm pretty fluffy and even though I'm filling out, it mostly just looks like fat, especially without clothing. I'll start posting in a few weeks when it actually looks like a baby in there ;D

So my 10 week pic showed some "poppage"...apparently it's more than I realized.  And I cannot suck it in anymore....PAINFUL.  I have no idea if I will be able to last at least another 3 weeks without telling at this rate.

Cute little first tri bellies!  I love 'em.

I haven't started my "official" pics yet.  I'm pretty serious about getting one a week, one w/belly uncovered and one clothed, but neither of my sisters could come over at 12w -- usually when I start -- so I just have this lame one instead.  Self taken at 12w3d.
 

I'll have better ones in 4 days hopefully.  Ha!  But yes you can see my little bump poking out a wee bit here.  "Tiny" meaning...I'm way bigger than I was with my others because my bump was totally not existent at this point with those pregnancies!

Aw, I love belly threads!  You all are so beautiful!  Right now I really have nothing to post.  My uterus is retroverted, I have a freakishly long torso, and despite the bloating, ms has caused me to lose weight.  I swear I've looked more pregnant not pregnant..... I can't wait to actually have a belly but it will probably be a while.

This is the first bump pic I've taken I was to scared til now... this was exactly 14 weeks, I'm a little bigger now lol

[TIFF4NY]

Beautiful!

13w1d, in my construction site of a home.  I'm 14w tomorrow so I'll have another one soon.

[brooklyn_warbler]

beanbean, that sure is a sweet bump!!  I stay in the "barrel tummy"/"look like she ate one two many ringdings" for a while. 

[MaineCoastMama]

You ladies look awesome! 

I only have the slightest curve to my tummy (basically I look like what I used to look like if I didn't suck it in, I think.)  Also, I can not suck it in any more, which is some consolation that I am getting pregnant-belly. This is my first and I'm 12 weeks. Hopefully in another week or two things will get a little more pronounced.

I've never taken belly pic's before. Well, I took them at 37 weeks with my last son who was born the next day LOL I just feel fat and unattractive.

[Martha83]

Well I posted this one in the discussion thread but I'll post here too :)

You guys all look so great!!!

I am taking a new one on Monday for 12 weeks, and haven't updated my weekly pic timeline, but just comparing 6w to 11w is pretty obvious.  And this is first thing in the morning, no food or drink, mind you...I am HUGE by noon!!!  It's ridiculous.  Thankfully there's very little bloat left, if any.  My boobs are still ridiculously sore though, which is strange for me since they haven't felt changed at ALL in the last 6.5 years since I've always been nursing!

[1babysmom]

Holy poppage.  Give it a week and it acts like it's had a month. LOL  Dang!  No making fun of the "pointy belly."  It's characteristic of my pregnancies. LOL

(oh, and can the vain part of me say that I love that a side shot makes it clear that the bloat has definitely disappeared...so happy to be off of that progesterone!)

[Martha83]

lookin' fab! :)

[brooklyn_warbler]

Here I am at 14w2d...hoping to see more bellies here soon now that we're all close to the 2nd tri!

14 Weeks today!!
