THERE ARE BELLY PICTURES....AND THEN THERE ARE BELLY PICTURES!

Ok, there has been a common question that has come up recently from a lot of my clients....I usually hear it everyday.  Well, first they ask when am I due, then they ask if I know what I'm having and then here's the questions of all questions...."have you had the belly pictures done?"  Now if you know me at all, you know that I love to take pictures, but if you know me at all you know that I DISLIKE (hate was too strong of a word) the pregnant mushy here's my pregnant fat belly lets get naked and make my hand into a heart and have my husband and child hold my belly pictures!  ARE YOU KIDDING ME!  Why would someone spend $300 on pictures of your belly when you are 40lbs heavier and your belly button is sticking out like the turkey is done and you can see every vein that could possible exist in your body?  I get how it is so great to have your child look back one day at your belly so you can be like, "oh honey that's when you were in mommy's tummy, " but really the closest thing to belly pictures you will get from me is the one below!  

Ok there is one more thing.....those belly casts!  HOW STUPID!  The last thing I want to pull out at a party is a big bowl of plaster and tell everyone that this is how fat I use to be!  My husband doesn't even like to look at my prego belly and can you blame him?  Why would I want to spend money on a big vat of plaster only to remind myself and my hubby what 40 extra pounds, heart burn and bitchiness looked like?  Really...the only use for that belly cast, besides a punch bowl, would be to put it on Harper when she is older as a form of birth control!

Ok whew, nothing like venting at 6:00 on a Friday morning!!  Now I know I have offended a few readers, but if you like the belly pictures that is great!  This is only my personal opinion and since it is my blog I get to write about it!  

Have a great Friday!

This was last weekend.  35 Weeks and 2 days!  The countdown is on!
