You guys. You know how addicted I am to Instagram. I mean, I have, like 1700 pictures there, from what? A year and a half or some ridiculously short period of time like that?
That’s why it is killing me inside that I cannot find more than a handful of pregnancy pictures of myself. Because you know that if I had had IG, I would’ve had pictures galore.
Reason enough for baby #5?
JUST KIDDING.
But really, I had some super cute maternity clothes and now they’re gone, and undocumented. *sniffle*
So, this is what I could find. (None of which are from my first two pregnancies. I can picture of couple of those, but have no idea where they’re saved, other than in photo albums.)
Here’s a picture from our wedding reception in the spring of 2009. T and I had gotten married in November of 2008 in Las Vegas, so we never had a honeymoon and there wasn’t time for a reception. By the time we could have one, well….I was knocked up for the third time. And a few months later, EB was born.
I only have a few pictures of my pregnancy with Erv, which BAFFLES me because I was blogging back then. But, it was in 2010-2011, and back then, only my family members read my blog and I rarely posted pictures (especially of myself). CAN YOU EVEN IMAGINE?! That’s all this blog IS anymore!
Anyway.
This was in October of 2010, when I was less than five months pregnant. But we were getting family pictures taken, and I was so happy that I was showing so Erv could be in the pictures, too. I had literally just popped.
This was before I went to a jewelry party and I actually felt pretty good, so I asked T to take a picture.
And last but not least, the morning of my c-section in March 2011.
At least I have children that almost sort of look like me, since I have very little proof that I actually carried them.
Such a cute pregnant lady. 🙂
Aw, thanks. It was the only time I truly felt comfortable in my body. Sigh. I'm getting there again, though. 🙂
These are good pictures!
I actually took more photos of pregnancy #2 mostly because I already had a blog by then. My poor firstborn. 🙂
I had my blog and still didn't take them! It was before I knew a lot of people who took weekly pictures, I think. Ah well.
You have great pregnancy photos (especially the one before your jewelry party)!! 😉 I don't have many of me pregnant either….never liked what I looked like. Now I regret it, but not enough to have another!!!
I'm the same way- I don't have many pics of my bumps. I wish I did- though not enough to try again!
You are so cute!
Ha! Me neither. But if it ever happened accidentally, everyone would be SWARMED with bump pics. 😀 Thanks, Shell!
Cute! I especially love the professional photo. Stunning!
I know, I love that picture! Thanks, Laura!
You'll be happy to know the sparkly twin set lives on – I loaned it to Kaycie for her pregnancy! Oh, and Paul still sleeps with Alphonse.
Oh, I'm so glad! Not about Alphonse, though. 😀
These are great. I don't think I have any pics online of me pregnant. I may have one or two from my last pregnancy – I remember that I had just signed up for Facebook towards the end of my pregnancy. I'll have to check.
I was really surprised that I only had a couple on Facebook! I guess we know when my completely picture over-sharing began. Ha!
You are so fricking cute. And that first pic of you at the wedding reception? I die of you cute you are…and you look about 12! Cute Cute CUTE!
Oh, thanks, Katie!! I loved that reception outfit, so much, and still have the hot pink shoes.
okay, you are SUPER cute while pregnant. Too bad their won't be an INSTAbaby! 😉 Love your bump shots!
I know! I remember live-tweeting two years ago before and after he was born, but nobody really knew me back then. SIGH.
Cute bump pictures! I barely have any pictures of me being pregnant also, I'd really have to search for them
Thanks, Audrey! I definitely had to search for these.
Adorable.
Thanks. 🙂
I don't have a ton of bump pictures – a few candid shots here and there, but I am the primary family photographer so if I don't take them, they don't get taken. 🙂
Love your photos – the professional one is gorgeous!
I definitely had to ask for the few that were taken. 😀
I love that professional one, too…she captured it beautifully.
I have very few pictures of my bumps either and I wish I did. You look great pregnant!
It's so hard to ask somebody to take our pictures, isn't it? Thanks, Jessica!
I love your pictures. You are gorgeous!
Oh, goodness. Thanks, Leighann! xoxo
There are hardly any bump pictures of me either, and I'm pretty ok with that. You are an adorable pregnant lady, and I'm already cheering for #5!
Haha, you'll probably be cheering until you're hoarse. 😉 Thanks, Hillary!
You looked so super cute!! I'm working hard to take bump pics this go around, but it's tricky~ I feel like the weeks are sailing by. 🙂 Love all the shots you shared!!
Thank you, Amy! I know, it's crazy how fast the time goes…maybe you need a Sunday morning picture every week or something. 🙂
You were so adorable pregnant. No wonder you did it four times 😉 I love the red shoes. I wish I would have done that for my wedding.
Ha! Thanks, Nicolette. I was actually more comfortable with my body when I was pregnant….there's no pressure to be thin! Cute shoes, right? I still have them, and they're actually hot pink to match the flower!
Gah. It is so weird (for me) to see you with blond hair. You were a completely adorable pregnant lady!
I know, me too! But, it's only been a few months since I dyed it dark…right before Halloween. Seems like so long ago. Thanks, Jennifer!
Ooh the sweater picture in the soft lighting is so pretty.
Isn't it? Megan takes the most amazing pictures.
You may not have as many bump pics as you'd like, but the ones you have are beautiful!
