Pregnant after IF

HDBD Itty bitty (or bigger!) bumps?

edited October 2014 in Pregnant after IF
Today is my first ever day in maternity pants! When I realized that it's HDBD, I hoped you'd indulge my first ever itty bitty bump pic.

(Sorry it's rotated. Don't know how to fix on mobile.)

    @Ducky719‌ - I disagree! You're tiny and gorgeous!! The toilets are hilarious, but I think our guest room is funny looking too. ;-)

    I would like to get your guys opinions about bump pictures since you are sharing. I really didn't plan on taking any as I am bigger (and really really really hate pictures of myself). Should I break down and keep a digital record and use just the ones I feel don't look horrible for the obligatory first baby journal/album? I'm pretty sure I'm going to remember being pregnant without one but they seem so prevalent these days.
    And all of you look properly bumpy! :D
    I am a big girl and not that comfortable with my body right now either. I started taking pictures at 8 weeks because I know I will want to see the progression even if I don't share. I will use the bump app to store them:)

    This!

  • Ditto. IVF did a number on my bod. And I wasn't teeny tiny before it either. So, I'm looking in the mirror at a 7 week bump that's really fat with hope. I keep wondering if having 2 beans is making me look farther along than I am. Love all of your cute pics. They are very inspiring. Wonder if I'll ever look pregnant-cute....or if it will just be blob fat? Blah. Ok, done whining.

    I love all the bumps!   I can't wait to have one and not just this 7 pounds of fertility meds.

    I went and lost over 10 lbs in first trimester without any morning sickness and eating a LOT just because I lost fertility bloat (and I was craving chicken & veggie stirfry with brown rice - gotta indulge healthy cravings!). I have since gained 14 lbs so a net gain of 4 lbs. My doctor thankfully isn't giving me a hard time because it's really like I've gained 14 lbs from my normal, non-Follistim bloated self.

    And here's me at (nearly) 28w this past weekend!
