So now that we're in the home stretch, I wanted to take a look and see where we've been!
While I've definitely felt slower and more tired, seeing my belly in the mirror or in a picture feels incredibly surreal. There's no way that belly is attached to me! But I'll tell you what, I absolutely love it. I love my Baby Bump. I am always rubbing it, and Baby P and I are always poking each other back and forth. I honestly foresee myself being one of those that will really miss it when it's gone.... ok, getting a little emotional, back to the Look Back!
This is just ridiculous to me. When did my belly get this big? I say that as people repeatedly tell me how small my belly is, but that thing is huge to me!
It's so funny looking back at Week 10 and 20. I was clearly MISERABLE in the first trimester (Week 10). I just look tired and I can almost see "nauseous" written on my forehead.
Then I reminisce about the 2nd trimester (Week 20). Ahh those were the good old days. I looked and felt like myself (though, don't ask Kevin... I'm sure he'd attest to my insanity). I wish I had planned ahead for this 3rd trimester exhaustion because I totally would have completed the nursery back then.
Then we're back to tired, lazy looking, no make-up Elyse... but at least she looks like she has an excuse as opposed to Week 10!
This sure has been a journey so far, and the pregnancy part is only (ALREADY) 3/4 of the way complete. Followed by, The Big Event (L&D), and then that thing called The Rest of My Life.
