I've received requests to post my pregnant self on the blog, so here I am. Rod took the picture this evening.
10 weeks to go!
I suppose I could milk the pregnant thing and claim fatigue, nausea, and misery, but I just can't do it.
The honest truth is that I REALLY love being pregnant. Especially the last trimester. I love feeling the baby move. I love knowing that I always have a little buddy with me. I love that, when I'm doing nothing at all, I'm really doing something--because I'm growing a baby. I love being completely still in my bed & seeing that little body wiggle around in my belly. I love to think about what she looks like, what her personality will be like, and how her life will add so much to our sweet family.
I know it's not the norm, and I know that some people will be bugged that I'm not suffering, but I just really really feel good when I'm pregnant, and I think that's ok. I know it's a blessing, and I am thankful every day for my healthy, pregnant body.

Okay, I with you because I really love being pregnant too. I don't throw up, or have severe nausea. I do get severe acid reflux at the end, but I don't mind because I'm always happy just to be pregnant.
But I'm completely in awe of your teeny bump for 29 weeks! I look like that at 13 weeks! It was over a month ago when a stranger thought I was due already. She was shocked that I still had 3 months to go. Granted my boys are huge and I'm short waisted, but it's simply stunning how tiny you are.
WOW.
Alright. Who asked for a picture of you to be posted on your blog? Because frankly, I'm now completely depressed. You look fantastic. Firstly, I would not even attempt running shorts right now & secondly, I looked like that by month 4. I don't know where you are hiding the little darling, but perhaps she's inside of me too. :)
Wahoo! Only 6 weeks to go! Our girls are going to be cute little cousin friends.
Lookin' goooood. I wish I loved being pregnant. I love feeling the little ladies inside, but unfortunately I think I focus too much on how awful I look which ruins the whole experience for me. I'll try to do better next time. Well, live it up because she'll be here soon! I get back next week. Let's meet at the pool one day.
Jen, if I haven't told you enough before - you look amazing - really, you do pregnancy, so so well!
I'm with you with loving being preggers - it really is the best feeling in the world to be doing something so important.
She'll be here before you know it!
I see you almost every day, and I often forget that your pregnant. In fact, I think you are sticking your tummy out in that picture.
Jen, are you sure there's a baby in there? ...only kidding.
I love being pregnant too! I mean, I don't think I'm as comfortable as you claim to be, but I love feeling my little girl kicking and squirming around all the time, especially at night. I love watching my belly move and I love that she has the hiccups all day every day. She's my little buddy and I can't wait to officially meet her!
