Mirka - My DH grew up on a farm! He would be good help and the men could do some male bonding! And, they could go to some marriage 101 classes together! Mine definitely is not good with the apologies either. Guess they don't teach that to the men on the farms

You and me will stick it out with the slobbery doggies!

[Mirka]

Ok, Cat and girls, this is my belly. I am thinking about my self as chubby girl or large frame, but my belly was always flat until stimulation shots, I cant "suck in" anymore and fyi - my panties are not oposite (hahaha), they are just so thin that on side si visible that "thing" (I dont know word for that), so no girls, even on farm women change panties, they dont just turn them around....hahaha

Peachy, yes, boys needs hard work and take some class for good maneers (maniers....) My not-DH grew up as spoild city boy who had always people do things for him.... and I know live here is big change for him.....well, for me too, I was city girl too, but my family has diferent values in everything......, already so many people told us that we remainded them some series of "Green acres", but I never did see that, so I cant say if it is us......but maybe some truth it will be on it, if so many people did say that........

OK, GIRLS, MORE BELLYS PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

[Mirka]

I did forget that belly....so here it is....

[cat915]

Mirka, I love your pregnancy belly And I hope your DH apologizes soon. I do like that the dogs are in the house w/ you! Is your house fully furnished?

[KathyC]

Girls,
I feel better after hearing about the growing belly and seeing the pictures. I am not alone.

Mine is at about same as Mirka's or a little bigger. My pre stimulation weight was 118 and I am 128 now. I was a little depressed yesterday after I saw my weight at the OB/GYN office. The doc said that I should watch my weight as 10Lbs in 3 months is a lot. I was almost taking couch/bed rest for the past 11 weeks.

Once we all deliver, we will need to start a weight loss thread.

[JustPeachy]

Ok, I am in no way brave enough to post a belly picture yet. Give me anouther month... I got to get some sun on this belly! But, trust me, I am right there with both of you. It's a good thing there isn't a scale to be found in my house right now Oh, and there is no way you're seeing me in my panties! I hate my thighs! Some day we'll win the lottery and I can do lipo. I've given up on them... it's a heriditary thing I've decided Until then, beach skirt coverups at all times!

[Mirka]

Peachy!!! Stop it!!!! Go make picture at time when is sunset or turn on evening lamp at living room, that will give you nice color to your skin, but I dont think we care if you have white, orange or green belly!!!
And size? Who cares!! I have giant thighs, what needs some cuts on outside and inside (from knee hight to up), my brest needs serious lifts and after PG I will need some skin to take off of my belly......I am 183 lb, size 12 and what can I do??? Nothing!!!! hahahaha
Go, take camera and show us your belly and I hope all of you who is 3Xsmall size will post pictures too!!!

Cat, yes, dogs are inside dogs, they dont want to be outside at all, they sleep all the time, so, they just dont bug in house at all. We moved from this house last year and some old furniture stayed here, so few things are here, I dont need much to be happy, I have all office here and bed, TV and few things in living room and that is all what I need. We wanted to keep it over summer because pool is here and than rent it. But I dont know what will hapen now......

[JustPeachy]

Ok, ok, Mirka. I'll dimm the lights and take some pictures. I think I need DH's help. I have no idea how to work the timmer on my camera. You're making me laugh! I can see your napping dogs in the background. Mine seems to especially like to drool on the velvet pillows on my sofa. That's where he is right now. He truly thinks he is king of the house. Alright, the rest of you can do a post-pregnancy workout group. Mirka and I are going for lipo together!

I had a friend take a photo at each of her month markers at it was a really cute timeline to look back on.

I'm jealous of the pool! Havana, do you have a pool at your complex? If so, we're doing our next lunch date poolside!

Hi Girls - Mirka, I just love your belly! You're a good sport for posting it especially with your "thin" undies . What made you two city kids buy and farm? From one city girl to another, I would never survive living on and running my own farm! I would love to visit one though...

As for my own belly pic, I'm with Peachy, need some sun on mine before I can post it! Love my belly but don't want to scare all you ladies with it!

The news on my end is - I am officially off all pills, patches and extra meds except for my prenatal! I thought the day would never come.

Have a great weekend! Thanks again Mirka for the pic, it made my day!

Maggie

[MaggieMay75]

P.S. Peachy - I was just reading back and saw your DARLING ultrasound pics! Your baby peach is the cutest thing ever. Congratulations!

[JustPeachy]

Thanks Maggie! Must be great to finally be off everything. I'm in my last week and can't wait. I'm doing POI every other night and will be done on Thursday. I hope I don't see another needle till it's time for the epidural!

Off to spend the day sweating at the parents farm. Maybe I can get some sun on my tummy Talk to everyone later!

[cat915]

Aw, my tummy is probably the palest EVER, so peach & maggie, I don't buy that excuse!

I'm all for a tummy tuck after i finish having kids though! I hope you all are having a wonderful weekend! Mirka, hope you are getting some use out of that pool! And I really hope you & DH resolve things soon!

[JustPeachy]

Oh Cat... I just spent all day in the 97 degree heat here. I chugged water all day and my stomach is huge tonight! Too bad DH isn't around to take a photo of my pale water logged tummy

[havanajims]

Oh that was fun! I just came back from my mountain trip, and I had 3 pages of fun posts to read! Cat and Mirka-love the stomach pictures! Ohh..and I think I have some ultra skinny before pictures of me on our honeymoon, so maybe I can show you before and after. I still need to take a prego belly shot. Peachy-cant we take one with our pants on so we dont have to worry about Hollywood Lighting??

Boston-Im having the same exact problem as you. I look rediculous in any pregnancy pants. I was going to check out Gap Maternity as well. If you find something, let me know! Seriously, I put on my old pants (no Jeans for me, Robin) and leave them unzipped ALL THE WAY down. My bella band goes over the whole thing, but its now getting uncomfortable. DH came home the other day and I found a pair of pants I hadnt worn in awhile and he said "wow! those are so cute!" I lifted my shirt up and bella band (now the rubber band) and he busted out laughing at me! I gotta find some relief...

He so I gotta tell you about this resort we went to in the mountains. It was really cool. DH and I were laughing because it was exactly like the resort in Dirty Dancing. It was like this country club where the men still had to wear dinner jackets and ties to dinner (we skipped it) They had the lake and the activities and the dancing, games and everything! So right when we got there, we were checking out the place, and this lady walks by all loud right to my face but speaking to her husband, "Geez, there sure are alot of PREGNANT LADIES here!" I couldnt believe it!! WHAT?? I look that pregnant now??? So I kept walking and I saw the other "Pregnant Lady". Can you believe that?

Get ready girls, those crazy ladies with their comments are coming!!!

[cat915]

Havana, that place sounds hilarious! I think i'd like to go just to see it! And I was totally wearing pants & bella band in that picture, they're just very low rise.

Peachy, I don't think i could take a whole day outside in 90 degree heat!

I've been napping a LOT and tired when I get up in the morning (keep in mind that my dh snores and my dd has been waking up once a night) and my DH asked me if I needed to see a dr because i'm so tired? Hello? I couldn't believe he asked that. First off, i'm PREGNANT and secondly he's been waking me up w/ HIS snoring! (and then i have to get up and pee) Okay, just my vent of the weekend. Mirka, can I come spend a weekend in your house?
