Track your bump?

Are any of you ladies doing something cute to track your weekly "bump" and baby progress? Same outfit? Chalkboard? Symptoms? "How big is baby?"

Please share ideas!

Re: Track your bump?

  • I plan on weekly pics, but probably nothing too creative :)
  • Loading the player...
  • Definitely going to take weekly pics.  I think I'm going to do it 2 ways....same basic outfit that can handle a bump and a cute outfit so the look changes with the season.

    If you are looking for ideas, check out Pinterest!  There are a ton :)
  • I wish I was more creative.  I'll just do weekly pics, probably in the same outfit.  I don't have any props or anything.
  • Last time, I did most of my weekly photos in whatever I was wearing that day. We aimed to do the photos on my "ticker change" day, which was mid-week, so in most of them I'm wearing professional clothes. I would add the week and day to the digital image after I got it off the camera.

    That said, it happened that my first and last photos were in the same clothes! A long running top with streeeeeetch and yoga pants. So we got a fun before-after comparison without meaning to. This time, I think I'll try to make that happen on purpose.

  • I think we'll do pictures but not weekly.  Maybe once a month.

  • Last time I started off doing weekly pics in the same place wearing the same clothes and then after first tri I just got busy and randomly took pics when I remembered. I wish I would have kept up with it, though.
  • My best friend (the only other person who knows besides DH) sent me a new momma present from Amazon that had little tummy stickers for every 4 weeks from 8-40 weeks (similar to the monthly ones for babies) so I'll be taking pictures with those to track

    Way more excited about them than I should be :)
  • I did a weekly pick last round, but didn't stick to the same outfit or anything cute. I don't think I will do anything more than that this time since I'd feel bad about it down the road if they ever questioned it :)
    PINK or BLUE, either will do. Expecting Baby #2

  • I slacked on the weekly pics last time. It's important to do them this time. I'm not sure I'll get too creative with it either.

  • I'm disappointed that I didn't take more photos of myself when I was pregnant with DD, so I will definitely be jumping on that this time around.

    I would like to get a chalkboard and write the #of weeks and size of baby with an interesting fact (what I'm craving, new symptoms, first kick, etc). I will take a picture beside it, probably in whatever I am wearing that day
