Your Bumps

[Louisa K]

Your bump always looks lovely aqua, your looking really well too...

Okay here we go... I got a bit carried away whilst taking these ones so appologies for the mass amount of pics in one post... I just couldn't believe how huge I look! .... I guess in a way I was hoping that the more I took the more chance there was that in one of them I might not look like such a hippo!

In these two I am wearing the same outfit that I was wearing in my very first bump pics (posted somewhere earlier in this thread) ... I thought that my first bump pic was huge when I took it, now I look at it and it's teeeeeenyweeeeeeeeny! lol

Anyone else think that I've grown really a lot since my last photos? I feel huuuuuuge! lol

Aww Tasha! your bump is gorgeous, you've really popped out now

 

[smartie]

Thanks Guys, it must be my work blocking them for some reason which is strange as I can see everyone elses pics, just not mine!

 

[TashaAndBump]

Thanks, Jenny!

Am really trying to appreciate my bump now because I know it won't be there for much longer...! Regardless of how much discomfort I've had or how much I've moaned about it whilst being pregnant, you can bet yer life I'll be missing it once the bub is here!

Lovely bump so neat so jealous no stretch marks hun - I have got under my bump im so upset i keep looking at them in mirro over and over again i can only see them if i look in the mirro as they are right under my bump purple horrible lines i really thought i wouldnt get them . Im still smoothing on the creams and oils though to reduce them

 

[Jenny]

Tasha~ You should be really proud of it, its just fab. But I know what you mean about missing the bump, I did after I had my son. Honestly dunno why we waited so long for #2. I like my food tray!

Aww hon, please don't get down over the stretchies. They go away after awhile and turn silver, they aren't that noticeable when they turn that color. Think of them as your love scars .

Thanks Jenny they are just really horrible to look at, I know what is inside will make up for them but cant help feeling like this at the mo. Just my emotions playing up. xxxxx

Here is me with 12 days to go

 

[Margerle]

So this is my first official picture in the 3rd trimester thread.

27 weeks 4 days

I couldn't wait to be here 4 months ago, and now, though I'm excited to be this far, I just feel like a behemouth and know I've got a long ways to go yet.

Hugs to everyone, and you're looking great as always Aqua!

 

[Jenny]

Wow Kerry, your bump is fab for being so far along!

Marg~ I can't believe how much you've grown, I remember your 16 week one I think it was? but wow! your bump looks great!

 

[TashaAndBump]

Firsttimer, I know how down the stretchies can get you - believe it or not I did get some on my hips (there's a thread I started about it kicking about somewhere) but the bio oil I use has really helped in turning them silver already so you can't see them in my pics... - so there's the proof that they do fade with time and one day you'll barely notice them! Well, you might, but only because they're on your body - everyone else will be oblivious and wonder what you're going on about! lol

We all know that baby is worth is, and I don't know if it will help you, but I really like thinking of them as my "mummy badges" - someone else came up with that one on my stretchmark thread and I thought it was really cool.

Chin up, chuck - you've got this far and you're very close to seeing just what all this has been for!

Jenny, I use mine more as a cup-rest than a food tray - it makes baby kick like crazy when I put my tea down there - I think it's very sensitive to the heat lol I think we'll wait about 2 years before trying for our next one - I think 3 years is a nice age gap for kids - Big enough that our next baby will have a big big brother or sister to look out for them, but not so long that our first baby will be missing out on sharing christmas and stuffs with a sibling... Heck, I've not even finished on this one yet and I just realised I can't wait for the next! lol

 

[Serene123]

You all have fab bumps! I'll post an update of mine sometime this week.

 

[TashaAndBump]

Wow, Kerry! I can't believe you only have 12 days to go! (How you feeling?) You barely look bigger than me! I can't see any stretchmarks... have you made it all this way without getting any??

 

[AquaDementia]

Tasha - you have definitely grown!
Firsttimer- stretchies...meh, I have them now as well. They will fade once the baby is out.
Margerle- yay, I love your bump, very cute!
Kerrie- such a cute bump!

 

[Firsttimer]

Thanks TashaAndBump that helped allot x Time is flying by now its only a matter of time before we are all holding our lil bundles of joy I cant wait.

Also I cant wait to have another one either lol and I havent even had this one lol. I might change my mind after though . But I would like a 2-3 year gap between having another one.

kerry 20 my belly button looks like urs. does that mean it wont pop out i was wondering. great bumps everyone!

 

[AquaDementia]

My belly button has sunk in even more now. It looks like a little shallow lake basin.

thanks. i feel huge but i suppose its cos i was quite small anyway. im feelin fine apart from swollen feet and fingers, just getting into nesting mode. i didnt have any stretch marks till last week, almost cried wen i got some onthe bottom of my bump, but they arent that noticeable so i aint gettin too down about it x x

hehe Isn't it funny how differently pregnancy can affect us all! My mother's belly button is Sooooo deep right now - you could keep things in there for safe storage! - mine disapeared first and went completely flat, then just the top started sticking out, now my widest point is around my belly button 'cause it sticks out about 1cm from the rest of my bump!
