The best part is that I was trying so hard to make it look bigger. The dress has a ribbon that ties around the waist and I was holding it tightly out of the way to try to make my tummy protrude, but it just wasn't working.
No picture of me this week because I forgot my phone at home so I have no way to upload a picture! But my parents have taken a bunch so I will be posting next Wednesday! On a side note, I have been feeling the baby move all week! So excited!
So, since I was told I put on an additional 7 lbs over the past two weeks, I decided to throw on the outfit from my week 30 pic to put a compare/contrast in my blog.
Cristina I think you look terrific....the exact same as a matter of fact....Did the outfit feel tighter on you? Your belly just looks like it popped out more as it should, but not 7 pounds worth....The extra weight could be the baby and your placenta ya know
Cris--I agree with everyone else--there may be a TINY difference in your bump, but I don't see how it can be 7 lbs. I think you got an evil scale at the doctor's office.
Elise--that is SO fun that you & your BFF are pregnant together & due at the same time. You both look so cute!!!
Cris...you look amazing. Don't let the 7 pounds get you down!
Eleise...I am uber jealous that you and your bestie are due within a day. That's awesome. You both look adorable.
I love this post every week!
ETA - I took my sweatshirt off so Timm could take my picture and, I shiit you not, he says, "Whoa! What happened? You're huge." I almost kicked him in the balls.
Ashley - I'm impressed that you managed a smile after that comment! Apparently my bump has popped again because I got that about 3 or 4 times today at work. Why is it ok to tell a woman she is huge, because she is pregnant?

Mel: You look amazing and I LOVE your outfit - are those maternity pants?
Hanneke: Cute suit!!! Accentuates the bump!
Dani: That little bump looks a bit bigger this week - I see some progress! Afterall, there is a green pepper in there...
Blayne: You look great! I don't think you look so huge, you look perfectly proportioned IMO
Ashley: I don't think you look so huge either! I think Kiki had a growth spurt because your bump definitely looks bigger, but I don't think it's a massive difference. Also, I love you shirt - adorable.
Natalee: LOVE your tights - and don't worry, the bump will come and stay, promise!
Jen: You look adorable!! Perfect bump!
Morgan: Lookin good! I see progress
I hope I didn't leave anybody out... Love all you girls!!!
And really, I don't see much of a difference in my pics either, except that I believe my belly dropped a bit... which makes sense. Friggin 7 lbs... evil scale!

I have no idea. To quote Dex, people are stupid.
He did say later that he didn't mean huge, "but the beast was sticking out farther than I expected." What a dork. I told him that when talking about me...or any chick for that matter...huge should not be the chosen adjective.

Please excuse the weird pregnancy pants butt I have going on, they are still too big.

Nat- I love your tights!
All you gals look amazing!

Jennifer - From that picture I would swear that you are having a girl.
No picture from me this week. I am here sitting at work.
You girls all look great!
