Baby Bump

I realize that I have not been taking that many photographs of my baby bump. I only have two, to be precise. Two pictures of my bump.

FIRST TRIMESTER:

This was taken in June, I think. I was around 12 weeks then. Notice how I had arched my back, trying so hard to exaggerate the belly! I had not undergone the surgery to remove the ovarian cysts yet then so the round belly was also due to the growing cysts.

SECOND TRIMESTER:

Now the picture on the right was taken in late July, perhaps around week 20. I am now at week 27 and have another week before I will be officially in my third trimester. I was a little irked last week by a nurse that was guessing my pregnancy stage. She looked at my belly and said "You must be 13?". As my eyes grew wider and my brows started to furrow she went on.. "14?" bigger eyes, deeper furrow... "15?" ...blood shot dagger look with killer frown..."16?"

"I am 26 weeks", I snapped back to which she shrugged her shoulders and to my chargrin retorted, "Oh...small baby". Not happy!

I believe my belly size is adequate for my body frame and size. It doesn't matter what others think. I do not have the urge to eat for 2 and have no uncontrollable cravings for pastries or other fattening unhealthy food . I have not altered my diet at all and am pretty pleased with that. I have however not been keeping up religiously with my exercise routine set by my trainer and will make an attempt to improve.

Third Trimester snaphot will be posted soon with more updates :) Watch this space!
