For my whole first trimester I couldn't wait to get a baby bump…now that it is definitely here, I'm like NOOOOOOOOO…I want to be skinny! Haha! I think every pregnant woman must go through this, or I'm just shallow... I know there is a precious baby boy growing inside of me, but at the same time I feel so out of control of my body. I've only gained 5 pounds so far, but I feel/look like I've gained 20 lbs. The worst part is when people say, "This is nothing, just wait until you're 8 or 9 months pregnant, you really will be huge"…Umm..Thanks, sweet people of the world! (Not a great thing to say to someone who doesn't want to get huge!)
My husband thinks I'm hilarious that a month ago I couldn't wait for someone to notice I was pregnant without me telling them, but in Target the other day when we were registering, a man walked by us and said, "Congratulations!" I was so sad he could tell I was pregnant…lol! Must be the hormones making me bi-polar! :)
Anyways, but here is my outfit I wore to church today! This is one of my favorite outfits, I love this zebra top and mustard together!
Excuse the sun rays all in the pictures, it was super sunny!
Here's the undeniable bump of mine! 5 months down, 4 to go!
My first baby was a micropreemie, so I missed out on all the "normal" pregnancy experiences with her. I was hardly in maternity clothes when she was born--so I really treasured all those experiences with my second (and probably last) baby. I loved resting my hands on my bump and feeling that sweet girl grow inside me. You look beautiful!
Even though you may feel huge... you LOOK adorable :) and I definitely remember feeling alittle sad about getting big and clothes not really fitting. Hope the next few months go fast for you.
Hello Lauren! Lovely to meet you!! Tis the first time I have linked to What I wore to church! I love your outfit- SO well put together and pretty! I think can understand how you feel about the pregnancy, people knowing thing, even though I've never been! To be honest though, I can't really notice it in these pictures- I am THAT unobservant about pregnancy! Tis a pleasure to meet you! God bless you through your pregnancy xx
I love your adding of belts to a lot of your outfits.... kinda ties it all together!! And as for the baby bump, You look AMAZING!! I can't believe your even 5 months along....... :) Keep being strong on the Lord!!
You're not alone in not loving the baby bump - I am about 7 months along and definitely can't wait until I get my body back as well. It's all worth it in the end. :) Thanks for linking up this week! Hope to see you again next Monday.
And you are still so tiny!
ReplyDeleteI love mustard and zebra together! That necklace is so cute too. You look adorable. ;)
