Holy Huge Belly Batman!!! : ) I just happened to be looking back over pictures that we've taken of my belly progression... and wow! If I ever thought I looked pregnant, or even bloated, 20 weeks ago, I was totally kidding myself!
Check out this comparison... me at 15 weeks and me today at 32 weeks:
I was svelte 17 weeks ago!!! And look how rested and energized I looked. What happened? ; ) Just kidding, I know what happened. And I am okay with it... really, I am. God has given me a peace about what is happening to my body. I am comfortable with the weight I've gained, and with the... well, let's just say "changes" that have occurred as I've gotten bigger. God made me just this way, and I will accept it gracefully. Or at least I'll try.
With that said... it's okay if you want to keep your comments about my size to yourself. I don't know what it is about pregnancy, but people seem to be very comfortable making comments that they wouldn't normally make. Like... "Yeah, you've really started to waddle". Or "I've noticed you've put on a lot of weight in the last week". You wouldn't say something like that to someone who wasn't pregnant. What makes it okay to say it to me now? I accept that I am heavier than I used to be, and that it is for a very good reason. But I don't need public commentary on it. Thank you very much.
I just needed to get that off my chest. : )

Amen! I mean, what.. these people think you are blind? I think we are aware of what my body has or has not done in the last week, thank you very much! Looks cute and very necessary to grow a healthy baby.
