  Lol! I saw her on E! last night and thought... WOAH! No way! She's ready to pop!

  And then I cursed myself for doing to her what I'm getting so frustrated with people doing to me! People were telling me in May that I looked "ready to pop", an expression I probably used 100 times before I got pregnant and I now am actively trying to avoid.

  So I guess... I'm a horrible person just as much as all those annoying friends and family constantly harassing me.

  On the other hand, I don't look  like her... so pissing her off by telling her she's ready to pop might make me feel better.

   

   

  LOL, I know.  I turned the laptop towards my husband and said, " I look smaller than her....RIGHT??" and he just stared at me and silently nodded b/c he knew it was the right thing to do.  

  I don't want to come across as mean at all, it's just that I've really spent my whole life being super body conscious and fighting with my weight.  I really honestly dreaded pregnancy because I was afraid of the weight gain.  I broke down crying around April when I was visiting my parents because I felt huge and I felt like the end wasn't in sight.  Now here I am, ready to have this baby, and I weigh 204 pounds.  And I'm oddly at peace, because I know the end is near, and I'll get back to what I used to be (138 last summer when I was busting my BUNS...normally about 150 ..... doc chart said I was 159 when I got my BFP).  I thought hitting 200 would break me, but I just laughed. 

  It's just weird because people tell me I look really small (strangers usually who ask when I'm due) but my co-workers were super quick to tell me that I had "poppped" early on.  One even asked if I was "sure I wasn't having twins" around 12 friggin' weeks and I cried. 

  Stupid body image issues.  Okay, vent over.  It's really stupid to get upset over. On that note, off to the gym! lol!

  Celebrities routinely give a later month for their DD. I wouldn't think much of it.

  She does look pretty big, but I think shes at that odd right before she drops stage so she looks super round. It might just be how shes carrying. I've looked like I'm about to burst at any time because of how low I've been carrying this whole time.

  What I want to know is how she doesn't have stretch marks....??? Granted mine didn't show up until almost a month ago, but they more than made up for it. Sneaky biitches.

  This is my thought.  She is so tiny everywhere else that it makes her belly look much bigger in proportion.
