I’m learning it’s fairly common in the blogosphere to share bump pics.
In addition to seeing them there, I’m a member of BabyCenter.com, where you see baby bumps of all shapes and sizes at the same exact point in pregnancy. It’s bewildering in a way, just HOW different each woman looks … but comforting, too. We’re ALL so unique!
I never thought I’d be the type to post pics of myself … but since my blog is about recovering from disordered eating issues and body image issues, what better proof of my recovery than showing the world how I’m embracing pregnancy and, well, gaining weight?
And, what better way to show my future daughter just how much her (otherwise modest) mommy loved her — so much that she’d take naked belly shots and post them on her blog for pretty much anyone to see?!
So I created a new page called “BUMP” (across the top nav) where I’ll be updating about every two weeks. If you’re grossed out or not interested in bump pictures, please DO NOT view them; I will not be offended!
But if you want to view the belly shots, go for it. And stay tuned for future pics every two weeks or so!
You are such an adorable pregnant woman! You look absoutely goregeous!
Thanks, Alison!
I think bumps are adorable in all shapes and sizes. I don’t want one (and can’t but that is another story). But seeing others bring in new life is amazing. I’m thoroughly enjoying your mindset change as you grow for life instead of for unhealthy reasons.
Thank you; that means so much to me!
Yeah for the bump! You look beautiful.
I can’t wait to take some beauty pics you can share. 🙂
Thanks ladies! Staci, I can’t wait til we can do those shots in the fall–you’re going to do an awesome job!
you look fantastic. I am so excited for you!
I love it!!! You look fabulous! I’m sooo excited for you. You guys will make fantastic parents.
Thanks, Avanti! 🙂 XOXO
