transformation...

so this first picture is at 10 weeks, now i have 3 days left and this body "transformation" blows my mind, i've gone from...scared to gain weight... to sorta being ticked that you have to gain weight when your whole life you've been trying to do the the exact opposite...to worrying that my body will never be the same again...to knowing that my body will never be the same again...and now with 3 days left i have come to appreciate that my body can grow a baby and i sort of don't care what happens anymore because the whole thing is such a miracle.

........18 weeks............................26 weeks.........................30 weeks..........

..............32 weeks......................34 weeks.....................39 weeks.........

some things i've learned over the past 9 months........

*when you sneeze or cough really hard....that might not be the only thing that happens.

*even though your belly is big, it looks EVEN bigger with a stain down the front of your shirt.

*when you get pregnant you develop a hole in your lip that leads to stains down your shirt.

*strangers really do believe that your belly is public property.

*you shouldn't take painting your own toenails for granted.

*walking a mile while 9 months pregnant is equal to a 10k when not pregnant.

*little things like getting out of bed by yourself should be celebrated.

*even flip flops can feel tight at times.

*when you drop something on the floor you want to swear at it (and sometimes you do).

*when people tell you pregnancy is a glorious, wonderful, beautiful thing...they are lying.

*when your baby moves for the first time its the most amazing thing ever!

*the bond you have with your husband increases tenfold.

*you really can fall in love with someone you've never met.

The list could go on and on because, well, i didn't know anything before this journey started 9 months ago, but i've loved and hated being pregnant every step of the way!
