Bruno had urged me to take photos before, but I refused. So here you get pictures starting at Week 16. It’s pretty interesting/amazing to see my progression. I mean, when you look at yourself in the mirror every day, you can kinda see a change, but not really. It’s like watching my ivy grow… I can see that new leaves are forming, and that the vines are getting longer, but I only really notice a difference if I don’t look at it for a while.
People who haven’t seen me in a while, they see a big difference. Especially in the last 2 weeks. The babies have really just pushed me out. Haha. Of course, I think that it also depends on the clothes I wear that may make me look more or less pregnant. I’ve been VERY fortunate to have wonderful friends who have let me borrow their maternity clothes, and a lot of the cute maternity tops really accentuate the baby bump. I was speaking with an old coworker and apparently, back in the day, accentuating your bump wasn’t something you did. MTBs (mother-to-be) would wear flowy, baggy clothes that kept the bump hidden. Based on clothes today, that’s obviously a thing of the past. I mean, MTBs are wearing bikinis to show off their bumps!
So to keep things somewhat consistent, I’ve chosen to wear the same VT tank top, and white skirt for each of my pictures. Granted, I honestly don’t know how long I’ll be able to keep that up. Given that I’m approaching 6 months on Friday (What?!?!), I’m not so certain my picture wardrobe can keep up for another 3 months. Enough with the chatter already, show me the pictures!
