My belly

#1 February 9th, 2009, 11:37 AM

Do you all think I am showing a lot for 5.5 months? Whenever I tell someone I am due in June, they tell me I look big for being due then. I can't WAIT to hear the comments when I get much, much bigger

You look fantastic and not at all like you are big for your due date. You know who makes comments like that? Stupid, idiotic nobodies who shouldn't even be allowed to open their traps. Grrr.

Ok, rant over, haha. I've had enough of morons and their opinions today, can ya tell?

I don't think you look too big for being due in June. I have a friend who is due in June and her bump is almost the same size as yours!

I agree with the people-are-morons saying. :biggrin:

Well I think you look great. It seems like every women shows a little differently throughout the pregnancy, but at 30ish weeks or so it all evens out. Plus you are petitie anyhow which makes your belly seem larger in comparision.

I think you look great! and not too big. everyone gets bigger at different times. no worries hun, you look really good.

I don't think you look big for your due date at all! Your bump isn't "popped" and all centered, it's still the length of your torso and I think if anything that makes you look on the smaller side. I guess I'd have to see when you're clothed, but I don't think I'd see you and be surprised that you weren't due until June. You look fantastic!

I actually think you look small!

I work with a girl who is du in June. She is quite a bit bigger than you. Don't worry about it, every pregnancy is different. When you think about it, June isn't that far away either.

Everyone is different, but you are perfect for you and the next preggy girl is perfect for her. I think you look absolutely fine.

If someone tells you that you look big... tell them at least you have an excuse... what's theirs?

I think you look great and not too big and not too small!!! I didn't pop til I was 25 weeks and had to hear comments like "are you sure you're pregnant?"

So there are alot of stupid people out there who have nothing btter to do than say things that don't make sense!!!

Well, I will post a pic later of me this weekend and we will see if you think I still look normal. I know it is stupid, esp. since I TTC for a while, but the size thing gets me. I love my belly, but the fact that it is getting bigger and bigger makes me scurred

I think that's a totally normal feeling, Michelle. You know, it bothers me some people think because women TTC for a long time means they don't have a right to complain about the changes pregnancy has on their bodies. There are so many things that are blech about pregnancy and every pregnant woman, no matter how she got pregnant or how long it took her to get pregnant, has the right to complain about it if she feels like it. *hugs*

I don't think you look farther along at all. I was looking back at my pics and I think we look similar around that time.

Regardless, you look amazing!

BambolinaItaliana · #15 February 9th, 2009, 04:15 PM

i think you look great, and everyone is different!!

#16 February 9th, 2009, 04:44 PM

I think you look exactly right for 22 weeks! Adorable, by the way!

This was me at 22 weeks. Pretty similar, I think.

I agree.....I always hated the people at my work that would say I was big and was gonna get HUGE when the girl who was due 3 days after me was 3 times the size as I....

I think you look great, not too big at all. I think the average person is kind of clueless about how big women get during pregnancy and when. Heck, people are clueless in general. I've gotten all kinds of strange comments and questions from people, even those who have had kids themselves. I still get asked if I am having morning sickness.

Mod-LadyCoconut · #20 February 9th, 2009, 07:24 PM

You look absolutely SMOKING HOT! I bet people are saying you look 'big' just to be able to make some kind of comment on it or something. If you were wearing the flowing "cover it up" type tops they would probably say you looked small. It's probably weird for them to be like "omg Michelle you look PERFECT and I'm way jealous!" haha. That top is super cute and way to show off the boobs! heck yeah! What a lucky man you have to have a wife who looks so good even when laying floorwork! haha
