No, this isn’t a math lesson. I’m talking about my belly; I swear every day I look down and it’s bigger! I thought that I was going crazy for a while there because it was over the weekend and I was accentuating my tummy for my Halloween costume (Jon and I went as Juno and Paulie Bleaker! J) and I figured that it was just the striped tee making it look bigger. Then I noticed that it was harder to sleep and I was walking a little slower than normal and tired more than usual. Then as I was getting ready for work on Monday I noticed that the belly panel on my favorite maternity pants didn’t come up as high as it did before. That was it, I knew I had grown. I don’t measure my belly because that would just be depressing. I really didn’t want to know how big it was before I got pregnant so I sure as heck don’t wanna know how big it is now.
So fast forward to Monday at work. I have several colleagues who are also pregnant that I talk to everyday. It’s like this awesome instant support group, I love it! Anyways, I was standing next to one of the other pregnant girls, waiting for her to get off the phone. She looked over and I waved hello to her. She waved back, pointed at my belly and then made the universal pregnant belly sign over her own tummy. That was it, I knew I wasn’t crazy. I really did get bigger! We both laughed about it. I wanted it to stop growing so fast because it itches like crazy for one and I’m worried that if it’s this big now, how big will it be in another 4 months!?! She was jealous because she wants hers to grow. She’s only a few weeks behind me and could probably still hide that she’s pregnant from just about everyone! So jealous!
Anywho, I haven’t brought myself to take a new belly picture yet because I just can’t quite believe it so those will come soon.. maybe.
