Maternity Pictures

My friend, Christina, from Closer to the Heart Photography took maternity pictures for me at 32-weeks. Here are some of my favorites!

36 Weeks

8 Months

Week 32 are maternity pictures that were taken by Christina of Closer to the Heart Photography. I will post pics when they become available.

7 Months

I missed taking a photo during Week 29. It's kind of a bummer, but I've been trying to keep up. Week 29 was a bad week for me pregnancy related, but I'm all about moving forward. Month 8 will be showing up shortly!

Week 27

Bumpity Bump

Bumps Ahead

19 Weeks

I've got lots of baby movement this week! I was getting a little anxious about not feeling anything, but now I am. There is plenty of activity going on at the Hotel Uterus.

In other news, I have another ultrasound scheduled for tomorrow. We're going to find out the sex of the baby when s/he is delivered. I went back and forth about this decision, but the Husband really doesn't want to find out, so I came to terms with it. I've waited this long, and time has gone fast, so I can certainly wait it out for the other half.

I'm a little nervous that I'm halfway along already! We've got our crib picked out and need to get it ordered. I'm still deciding on gender neutral crib bedding and nursery decor. We're going to have to register soon too! It becomes more real by the day!

Bump City! I think it's safe to say I'm past the "Is she just fat or pregnant stage?" Yay!!!

15 Weeks

15 Weeks and 2 days, and growing by the minute!

Week 9

Ahh, already received my first belly pat. I suppose I should get used to that, but still struck me as weird. I guess it depends on who is doing the patting, right?

We celebrated Christmas with our families. Only immediate families and a handful of my friends knew at this point. We decided to keep quiet about our little Babeski until after our first doctor appointment in Week 11.

Still feeling pretty well. Some downs, but mostly up's. Mom is in good spirits. Oh, and did I mention we decided to gut our bathroom and do a renovation project? Yep, that whole thing started in the middle of Week 8. It's been going alright though.

The new resident is nearly an inch long, and about the size of a grape. The essential body parts are accounted for, though they still have plenty of fine-tuning to come in the following months. The baby's heart finishes dividing into four chambers, and the valves start to form - so do the teeth. The embryonic tail is completely gone. Organs, muscles and nerves are kicking into gear. The external sex organs are there, but indistinguishable for another few weeks. We've got private parts, people! This seems so crazy to me!! The embryo is an inch long!!! How is this possible??? The body does amazing things.
