The Gallery - A Beautiful Shape

This weeks photography theme in The Gallery is shapes. I was having some trouble choosing a picture until I saw this one stored on my mobile phone. This was me at 35 weeks pregnant back in July. I absolutely loved my bump and I miss it dearly.
Everybody thought I was having a girl due to the shape of my bump. It was high and all up front. I had a hunch from the first scan that it was a boy but I let them speculate! I was in better shape physically while I was pregnant than I have ever been in my adult years. I lost a ton of weight due to the morning sickness and despite the obvious bump getting in the way, most of my clothes were too big for me.

Almost 6 months on and I have put a bit of weight on over Christmas. I am going to try and get myself back on track now. I want JC to have a better relationship with food than I do and be happy with his shape and size. I believe the first step towards achieving this is to be a good role model for him.

  1. Your bump is a great shape! My wife gets nostalgic about her bump too. If it's any help she's lost loads of weight (we both have) from just carrying our baby twins around. Living in a a tall thin house with 2 flights of stairs probably has a lot to do with that! :)

  2. Yeah that would do it. I have noticed that my arms muscles are toning up well thanks to the 19lb baba I carry around all day.
