15wks


You asked for this picture and I very begrudgingly am giving in. I am still in denial that this is my body! haha. From now on I will be having clothed belly pictures. Charlie says these pictures are improper...now that I think of it, I would never under any other circumstance bare my belly like this! I have now gained about 10lbs...not sure how normal this is. I am popping out of my clothes and still really struggling to see myself as pregnant and not just gaining alot of weight very quickly! My husband is amazing and does everything in his power to make me feel beautiful. He tells me everyday how beautiful my bulging belly is and how happy he is that his child is growing there. Otherwise things are well....I finally got my steak for dinner last night so I can shut up about that. I got really sick in the middle of the night again and puked for a while, but was fine after that. I'm so stiff and achey this morning...wish I was able to enjoy all this time off more!

Wow, I'm amazed you want steak! Meat + pregnant Beth = instant nausea so I've been eating pasta and bread!

I can certainly relate to struggling to see myself as pregnant, not just gaining weight as well! It doesn't look like a baby yet! You're brave to put pictures up. We thought we were going to take belly pictures every week, but usually, I sleep instead. So no pictures for me. :)

And it's frustrating because everywhere you go you want to yell out to everyone, 'I'm not chubby, just pregnant!! Stop staring at me!'. That might just be me.

Oh, and I hate shopping for maternity clothes. Why do they have to be so expensive?! The Bella Band can only last so long!

OK, I'm done with my random post talking about pregnancy stuff. :) Nice to meet you Emily, friend of Claire (if only in blog-world for now)!

Yeah, I think I craved steak so much because meat had caused instant nausea as well for me for the first couple months and then suddenly I didn't want just any meat...i wanted bloody freakin red meat! haha. But that comes and goes. One day it's apple juice, another day it's something else. My BellaBand is being put to the test as well right now...and I hate spending money on clothes I won't wear again...and then hating the way the clothes you have look and feel. SO ANNOYING. Pregnancy is discomfort. They should have told us that beforehand I think :)
