Drum roll please...

Everyone has been wondering when I'm going to "look" pregnant. The truth is, I can still wear my regular pants (though they are getting harder to button), and only Davey and I can tell that my stomach has rounded out. Nobody would know I was pregnant unless I told them. Baby is growing quite a bit, but my stomach is not showing it much to the outside world. Currently, at 17 weeks, Baby's crown to rump (aka head to butt) should be the approx. size of an onion (around 5 inches). Last week it was an avocado, which I much prefer to the onion, so fortunately this is only a size reference! I know, I'm silly.

Well, tonight I looked back at my "baseline" belly shot that Davey and I took after we found out I was pregnant and compared it to the belly picture I took today at 17 weeks. The proof is in the pictures! Despite the fact that no one else can tell through clothes, there is a *little* bump there. :) A lot of people don't believe me, but you can now see it in the photos. And no, I was NOT sticking it out either! Haha, I actually made a point not to.

It might be a while before I post more belly shots (seeing that it's not growing at a considerable rate quite yet), but I thought everyone would enjoy this. It's proof! There really is an onion, I mean, a BABY in there!

Awww it's growing! :) I meant to tell you the other day to invest in a belly band...you can wear it over your unbuttoned pants and no one will ever know. I did that for a LONG time :)
