BELLY/BABY/BOOBY PIC FRIDAY!!

Re: BELLY/BABY/BOOBY PIC FRIDAY!!

  • imageKupuggie:

    Alicia, I had an aunt at my shower, say in front of everyone, WOW, you must have a 10 pound baby in there.  Then when I delivered she was only 5lbs 15 ounce, my mom as sure to tell that aunt how wrong she was.  I hate when people make comments like that!

    Put on your earmuffs AE, because I'm going to complain about my MIL. Yesterday, while standing in a circle of about six people at a funeral parlor, MIL grabs my left hand and holds it up (I was wearing a fake ring on my ring finger - clearly not my wedding ring) and very loudly says "are you not wearing your ring because your fingers are swollen?" Sigh. Can't people keep their comments/observations to themselves? And was it really appropriate to discuss my swollen fingers at a wake?

    Ugh Dani I'm sorry your MIL is an a$$.  She could have pointed out she noticed that it was a different ring in a much better way. 

  • All the bellies look fantastic and the babies are beautiful per usual.

     

    For your viewing pleasure....my right boob.

  • Whoo hoo - boobies!!  lol!

    I planned to take my last picture this weekend, but I don't know if I'll make it.  I had some pre-e tests done today and I'm afraid since I'm so close that they'll just call me and say "just come down now"  Indifferent (scared face!)

  • Everyone looks great and all the babies are so cute, as usual!

    Dani-sadly your MIL stories make me realize it could be worse with mine, not much worse, though.  Sorry she sucksballz.

    Why, why, why would someone do this?? Is it okay that I am not only annoyed but angry for you? Angry

    This weekend I planned to pick up a fake ring myself, if anyone says a word I will take the ring off, put it on my right hand then punch them.

     

  • yeah dani your mil is just a jerk. aah Jen P! can't wait to hear what baby P is!

    Pugs - glad your Mom straightened your aunt out!

    Dani - sometimes I wonder if that woman has any type of filter whatsoever.

  • I love seeing everyone's bumps and babies! (And boobs of course)
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • Dani - I can't believe your MIL.  I don't know that I would've been able to not tell her off right then and there.

    Jen P - can't believe you are so close to meeting your LO.

    Stacey - Love the boob shot.

    The sad thing, is at my heaviest I could not say the same.  At least this is all the weight in my belly and a little in my boobs.

  • I love this post! You moms-to-be look great! I mean it. Alicia, I can't believe someone said that -- you've got a nice, small bump (for now!) Don't get me wrong -- those big bumps are awesome! I love how Stewie is so interested in it. He has no idea what he's in for soon. 

    Jackie -- Congratulations! I definitely missed that announcement! I think your next pic is going to have to be a belly pic. (not that Ryan isn't adorable!)

  • I'm a little late on this...but I'm doing it anyway!

     All of the babies are adorable, and the bellies are fantastic.  You ladies look so great!  Jen P, good luck and keep us posted!

    Here is Owen from bath time the other night...he is 11 weeks old!  He loves bath time (can't you tell from his facial expression???).  :)

  • Oh yes, I forgot to add...I think the weight/swelling/twin comments are inevitable.  People do NOT think, or they think it's a compliment.  When I was only 5 months a co-worker asked if I was sure I wasn't having twins.  Ouch.  And a guy in the elevator at Blair's office asked if I was going to deliver vaginally.  Um, none of your business!
