31 weeks - Bambino Parry is growing rapidly
It has been a while since I posted a belly shot. Here is one from this week, which is a shot of me at 31 weeks. Looking at this angle, my belly is LARGE AS ****. Its all worth it but I now know why I am always bumping it into things. I am learning its distance but everytime I figure it out, my belly grows, throwing off all of my measurements. The other day I tried to fit between 2 parked cars in a parking lot. Something that is normally VERY easy to do. Not for me now... My belly hit the side mirror of the car and it kinda hurt! ouchies. The PJ's I'm wearing below are obviously not made for maternity wear however the material is super comfortable and I love wearing it. Neil tells me I got a homer simpson going (space between top and pants) whenever my shirts ride but no harm in showing a little bare belly bump is there? This week Bambino Parry measures about 16 inches long. He weighs a little over 3 pounds and is heading into a growth spurt. (As if I'm not big enough already...) He can turn his head from side to side, and his arms, legs, and body are beginning to plump out as needed fat accumulates underneath his skin. He's probably moving a lot, too (probably?? Feels like he's in competing for the Beijing olympics) so you may have trouble sleeping because your baby's kicks and somersaults keep you up (tell me something I don't know)

I thought I would leave you all with a little funny comic I found online... A cartoon that tries to capture the evolution, or rather the devolution of pregnancy. If you are or have been pregnant, you can relate :)
