Remember when I said about nine weeks ago that I was at that “comfortably pregnant” stage and I wondered when the uncomfortable part would start? It’s here.
At least I’m 3/4 of the way there…

Hi, I just found your blog and am in love with it and am also very very pregnant. Like in my 39th month, so finding your blog is great. But you look great and your home decor is gorgeous.
I have fallen in love with that wallpaper I must admit. Where did you get it?
melissa
WHERE ARE YOUR SHOES FROM? They are a must-have.
Renae
To me being pregnant was a means to an end…and it is the most wonderful “end”….hang in there, it will all be forgotten soon when you hold that little one. Blessings to you….I love your decorating….your library is cute!
Barbara
You look great, but I (never been pregnant so far) can imagine that the additional weight is a bit uncomfortable. Think about the happiness you will feal when the baby is there.

I just found your blog- it looks awesome- and so do you! Congrats!

OK – I DON’T want children of my own, I just yearn to babysit but … if somebody has to bear children, I am glad it is somebody with talent and taste like you ;)
Katie
I enjoy your blog and your style, but what I like most about you is that you began “showing” as much and as early as I have. I was beginning to develope a complex about being the only pregnant lady who showed so much right away. Please keep the pics coming at least for another 7 weeks until I have my little girl ;)
Thanks!
Rosemary
first of all, you are ouper cute pregnant.
secondly, i have those shoes and love them so much. i’ve worn them completely out but can’t part with them!
beth
Can you tell me the name/brand of the paint color you used in the living room? thanks!
danielle
and you still look adorable!
audrey
You look adorable! I definitely remember the discomfort of my ribs continuously being pushed. The maternity body pillow from target was my luxury item those days.
Kim
Congratulations…you look marvelous! You will feel better soon. I love your wallpaper and your dress!
Kelly@Color Sizzle
You look better than I did when I was 30 weeks pregnant (and I was pregnant with twins)! Hang in there. The best is yet to come!
Alex
You look amazing! Loving that dress too. What kind of birth are you planning/hoping for? How exciting that you will be meeting your little one in 10 or so weeks!!
future Mrs. Jones
Hang in there! You look lovely!
Natalie
haha I said present for some reason, but I clearly meant pregnant!
Natalie
I’m sorry you’re uncomfortable…but you do look adorably present AND you match that lovely wallpaper! :)
coral
Oh, man. You’ve always had such great style, but you claim to be miserably pregnant and still manage to look this good? I have zero excuse for my personal style. which is “hobo” by the way. Or sometimes “target clearance rack meets didn’t feel like changing out of my pajamas.”
Love your shoes.
tey
You look fabulous despite the baby bump! And soon all the uneasiness will be replaced with bliss =)
Btw, I have tagged your site for the “your blog is fabulous award”! Congrats!
kris_spikes
well if it’s worth anything….you look adorable.
Cheryl
Omigosh, I see myself in that picture! And I remember how uncomfortable the last couple of months were. You are looking good, and you’re so lucky to be able to wear stylish shoes! (With my first one, the only shoes that would fit on my swollen feet were Nikes!)
kat
But look at you – all radiant and glowy against your lovely pink dining room paper!
Hang in there, I hear there’s a neat prize at the end :)
bungalowbliss
You look *great*, and I’m so excited for you!
Tiffany
I’d like to tell you it will get better before then but I’d be lying! The home stretch is the worst. But just think, you’ll have a beautiful baby in your arms in a few months and all the discomfort will be worth it. There’s no greater joy than being a Mom.
And if you’re going to be uncomfortable, at least you look great! I never had that much style pregnant!
teresa
You look so great! Wow, and no swollen ankles – lucky girl. Don’t you love that dress? I have the same one and it’s so comfy and cute. I SO know what you mean about being uncomfortable. I laugh at myself all day long because of the weird things I do to make life a little easier…like waddling (why does it help to waddle vs. walk normally?) and holding the bottom of my belly as I walk up the stairs.
It’s all so exciting though, isn’t it?
Tilly
You look really beautiful. I remember well that heavy, uncomfortable time!!
Gillian
It’s exciting and scary at the same moment, but the moment you look in her eyes you’ll know that everything you have done was perfectly executed. She will love her beautiful room and she will find the rest of her home so calming, yet fascinating. I am curious to know whether your beautiful home is filled with music and lovely (natural) scents?
Samae
You look super cute. I like that dress a lot. I kind of want one and I am not even pregnant. LOL
Sue
I’m thrilled for you, hang in there you’re almost at the finish line. I’m envious :)
Shashi
You look beautiful, hang in there.
flutter
you look adorable!
africa
Hoping all will be well will say a prayer that all goes well.
Leslie
You do look lovely. And I especially love your shoes, because I have the same ones! My best Payless purchase ever. Best wishes!
lindsey clare
you look great!
and i love the wallpaper.
Jane
I am new to your site and I love love love it! My sister just had a baby and it will be here before you know it! Thanks for all the inspiration. My husband and I bought a 1928 catalog home in September and have been fixing it up ever since. Good luck!
Kim de Montreal
Thanks for the update Nicole:) I know it’s cliché, but you won’t believe how fast it all goes. So enjoy this time, discomfort and all.
I’m excited for you and excited to see photos of her and finding out her name!!

Jen
You look lovely! It’s hard, at this point, when you begin to feel uncomfortable. I’m 35 weeks today and only have 4 weeks left before my scheduled c-section. I’ve been uncomfortable for a couple weeks now. But the other day, I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and thought “Wow. Look at what amazing feats this body of mine can accomplish.” and I felt so happy and honored to be able to bring this life into the world. Congratulations – I know it’s tough, but take time to embrace what an amazing thing you’ve been doing: growing a new human being from scratch!
(And I had to laugh at your primary color comment… yes, unfortunately, the next couple years the toys likely won’t match your decor. I’m still traumatized at that thought this time around!)
Jessica
:) I think that you’re doing fine, even though I only know you through your blog but it’s almost the end, right?
amy purple
I just want to give you a hug! I’m so excited for you and brandon! Take care of yourself.
Kat
I totally understand how you feel. I’m 6-7 weeks ahead of you and the discomfort is no fun especially with winter weather. Wish I could look as good as you do!
Manda
You look wonderful Nicole! Try and take it easy and rest up because soon you’ll be wishing you were pregnant again. :P
mar

Cupcake

You are just the cutest! I can’t wait to see pictures of your sweet baby girl. And she is going to be the best dressed little lady!
camila
Sorry you are not feeling comfy, but you still look amazing!
Love the dress and love who you look with the wallpaper background!
Nikki, chicago, 27
i remember those days.
Ana
Hang in there, and SLOW down. I’m a few days behind you with my second, so I know what you mean. Just try to take it as easy as possible, you can only do so much, and you must conserve energy for later. Best of luck!
marcy wacker
wow! you’re almost there. so exciting. sorry you are feeling icky, though. keep your eye on the prize…she’s worth it(:
lisa
You look good in all of your pictures! I hope, if I ever decide to have a baby, that I look as good as you when pregnant!
Abbie
You look beautiful!
And cute shoes!!
Fiona
You look very cute. It is amazing how much bigger I got in the last couple months. It is also amazing that your body gets back to pretty much how it looked before, although be patient, grasshopper–I was stunned by how different my body looked for about 9 months afterwards, and this is from someone who lost the excess weight almost immediately.
Alexis
Take a bath, and get plenty of rest. A bath every night before I went to bed really helped with the comfort issues and made it a bit easier to sleep at night.
katiethelady
you are adorable!
Gràcia
You look amazing!
D
You look fantastic. Enjoy these last silent weeks. Everything is about to change.
marlene

Homemade Grits
All of the pain and uncomfortableness will all be worth it when you lay eyes on that sweet baby. It’s amazing.
Anna @ D16
And yet despite the discomfort, you still manage to look gorgeous.
Go, you. This is going to be an awesome baby girl. :)
casafroggy
From this picture you look nothing but lovely. I like your makeup.
