Hi to everyone reading from ICLW!! In case you couldn't tell by the picture just above this post, I am pregnant, though still pretty new to the pregnancy thing. My belly has already started to change in shape. And I know that it will eventually look beautiful and be perfect. But right now, it doesn't look at all like a pregnant woman's belly. Instead, it looks like the Michelin Man.
It really is the strangest thing. The only way I can really give you a visual is to say that it looks like I'm wearing an invisible belt. I have a roll above the belly button and a roll below the belly button. And I know they will connect eventually, but right now, I'm the Michelin Lady!
I stopped by your blog and then realized that you were one of my commenters today. Thanks for stopping by and thank you for your kind words.
ReplyDeleteSo happy to hear you are pregnant and best of luck to the three of you :) I hope everything goes very well!

I remember being exactly the same way at around 7 weeks - I used to call it my cream bun bump because it just looked like I had been eating a few extra cakes rather than I was pregnant.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your pregnancy, I hope your journey is a smooth one :)

I understand the belly change! I have only gained about 3-4 lbs, but jeez my body is being taken over!
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!!
Happy ICLW!
Thanks for the comment on my blog!! This is a weird time in a pregnancy. Not a lot of weight gain (well...that depends) but a lot of changes to your body. It's hard to blame it on a creature the size of a grape but that's all you can hope for.
ReplyDeleteYou'll go from feeling like the Michelin Man to people whispering behind your back, "Is she..?" to people coming out and saying, "Are you...?" In both of those cases careful not to actually utter the word pregnant because they've accidentally rubbed the "belly" of someone who was just fat- LOL! Then it will be so obvious no one will have to ask. And through all of it your amazing body will keep changing. Enjoy it!
hahaha ilove the comparascent to the michellin man, its cute
ReplyDeletebest of luck in your journey, merry christmas
ICLW hugs!
That is a perfect description!! I feel like people notice the extra pound or two and I definitely don't feel pregnant. Congrats on that by the way! Thanks for stopping by - it is amazing, but still so surreal!

My "babies" are in their 20s and I STILL have a Michellin Man belly, LOL! Congratulations on your precious Little Bean! -- Linda from OnBloggingWell.com (via ICLW)
