~~~~Official Belly Photos: Show off those bumps!!!!~~~~

[lotus.blossom]

Its time folks. Time to get in those first shots before the expansion!! Fit, flabby, stretch marked, smooth who cares? Just post so that we can marvel at our bodies and the miraculous growth we will all experience!

Please edit/update your original post with all your updates so that we can keep it organised and see the progression all in one post!!

I have a belly pic, but if I start uploading belly pics to Flickr then everyone will know I'm pregnant! And I'm just not quite ready for that. I'll take pics every few weeks and then upload them to an album when I'm ready for the cat to be out of the bag. I think I look pregnant already.

Okay - I uploaded pictures to Flickr today. And yes, there really is only one baby in there. Or so my ultrasound said.

4 weeks
8 weeks
12 weeks

[kriket]

yeah right! You're not going to be able to tell where the flabby ends and the baby begins for a few months!!

I will join in during the 2nd trimester

9/10/08- I'm still not taking a picture, I'm just bloated and crabby.
10/01/08- still not taking it. still bloated and crabby.

[fairydoula]

if I arch my back I can look 6 mo. pregnant easily! hahaha

no belly pics here till I actually look pregnant, not fat! hahaha

[Stevi]

I'm in the tubby club. I could easily pass for 5-6 months now, without even arching my back!!!

I'll start taking pics when my belly is actually reflecting pregnancy instead of blubber.

Okay, I guess the peer pressure got to me... Don't say I didn't warn you, I'm huge!!
6 weeks

Me too!

[lotus.blossom]

Oh geez! I guess I am the only one who wants to participate! I don't think anyone cares whether you're flabby or fit. Just the progression is fun to note. Whatever you feel comfortable with!!

[Mom to E and A]

hehe, I want to see all your fat bellies, cuz I will feel much better knowing I am not the only one looking like I will deliver in the fall not spring!

If I do, will you?

ETA: Here's my pudgy belly...looked pretty similar to this a month ago before I knew I was preggo, but now there is no hiding it, LOL

Where are all the other chubby bellies...everyone looks so thin!

[lovbeingamommy]

OK, I'll post my pic tonight...hopefully.

[itsang]

yay, i like this thread! you look great, april! :

subbing, so i remember to come back & post some pics tonight or tomorrow.

[MotherMama]

I would love to join in.... I have already taken a 'before' pic a few days ago. I hope I remember, DH has the digi cam with the pic on it still in NYC for a few days. I too am not a flat stomach goddess I once was LOL, in fact my stomach looks like a road map from my previous pregnancies. But I keep the photos for the baby book that I make for each of my children. I encourage you to do so, even if you are self concious about it, my 7 year old LOVES to look back at the pictures of how he grew in my tummy.

Everyone's bellies are just lovely so far! Yay for impending baby bumps!

[RomanGoddess]

I'll play if someone tells me how to download a photo on photobucket or flicker or whatever. Never done it before. Do I need an account?

My stomach is pretty flat, often even concave in the morning. Have not had much progress in changing that. When should we expect to see a little bump the second time around? The first time around it was at about 11 weeks but only if I wore something tight.

Roman, you can just go to photobucket.com and register for a username/ password. It's quick and easy. Then you can hit the 'upload' button on your account page and select the file! Good luck!
