Today I am 20 weeks. I don’t feel like I am 20 weeks though! I browsed around a couple of websites today to see how big the baby is (10 inches long!) and how big other people are (it really ranges from person to person). I took a couple of pictures but didn’t have pictures this early with my other kids. With them I waited until June or July to take belly pictures – and they were both born in August!

Here is me laying down on the bed ~

Not really a baby bump, I don’t think.

Then here is standing in the bathroom (excuse the dirty mirror! Haha I didn’t realize it was that bad.) ~

Sure I have a tummy in this picture – but I think it is the baby growing and pushing the chubbiness up and out. So it isn’t a baby belly, it’s a chubby belly. Hahaha
I’ve been feeling great though.I don’t think I’ve gained anything (though I haven’t weighed myself in a couple of weeks) and I don’t go back to the dr until the end of the month. That is when we have the ultrasound to measure the baby’s growth, heart, etc. And of course if we want to find out the sex, we can. I don’t think we are going to though. We didn’t with Alice (though mother’s instinct told me she was a girl) and we did with Jake (but again I felt like he was a boy anyway) and this time I think we want a surprise. I don’t feel either way yet – well sometimes I do, but others I doubt myself.

    I don’t think this is a belly of chubiness – I definitely see that little pregnancy ‘bump’ and it’s cute! When I was pregnant I used to be embarassed by my protruding belly (I think it had to do with the fact I wasn’t married & I knew people knew what we had been doing..LOL) Now I find a woman’s pregnant belly the coolest thing ever and I really hope to one day experience that again.

    I know that at 20 weeks I was bigger than that but I had a HUGE baby! So like you said all pregnancies and belly sizes are different but I think you look good :-)
