TEN LITTLE TRUTHS ABOUT PREGNANCY
1. nine months feels like the blink of an eye and forever all at the same time…. 2. no matter how uncomfortable you feel with your body, you’ll miss being pregnant later….. 3. feeling your baby kick for the first time is similar to your first kiss, all butterflies and smiles…. 4. pillows are sent from heaven & can help you get a few comfortable moments in bed every night…. 5. a glass of wine every now & then is really okay…. 6. nap whenever the feeling comes over you, when your little ones arrives you can only rest when they do…. 7. rub oils & lotions on your beautiful belly all the time, even if it cannot prevent stretch marks, it sure feels nice…. 8. chocolate is a critically important food group…. 9. appreciate your breasts, nursing will change them forever….10. pregnancy is as sexy as you want it to be, so wear your little lacy night gown & love every little bit of your amble curves…..
Â
a little more sweetness....

This is making me so excited for what is to shortly come. I just found out I’m pregnant a few days ago. This is baby number two. It’s still just a thought, a secret that I am keeping for myself and a few close ones. I love the first couple of months you know your pregnant, there are not too many real signs yet. I am anticipating and anxiously waiting for the first doctors appointment, the first sound of his (it just feels like a boy) heartbeat, the first kicks, bringing new life into this world, and finally meeting my baby. It’s all just a concept, a dream right now. Thanks for the great post.

There are so many beautiful images on so many blogs but there are certain people who are “connected” and you are one. Gorgeous!

oh boy isn’t that the truth… you are so right on … i’d add on truth #11 … just when you feel like your belly can’t get any bigger it does. i do miss my belly bump very much… my husband says he misses it more though. he loved the belly and would talk to it often. {katrina}

i keep coming back to this post just remind myself what a miracle pregnancy is. I’ve had a very ruff pregnancy and through it all my hubby has constantly told me I’m the sexiest woman alive and he has kept my spirits up. I can’t wait to meet our bundle in October. Thanks so much for this post and the encouragement. It’s nice to see other women photographers out there embracing the sweetness of prenancy and telling others.
much love,
Liv
