If you took weekly bump pics as a keepsake, when did you start with your multiples? I have a DS and with him it wasn't until 20 weeks, really, there was no point b/c I showed very little until then, but at 13 with twins, I am already measuring 20. Would it be lame to just take pics of my bloat and innards this early, or is that normal for multiples? DH wants to start this week, but I feel silly for starting so early, for some reason.
