Being pregnant is definitely uncomfortable – especially at the end. But believe me, it won’t soon matter. The sheer joy of a baby will erase all of that in a very short time. Of course, I can’t speak for once they grow up… heh heh.
I think you look wonderful. I had two white maternity shirts and one black like the one you have on and wore them under everything! They were the only shirts that fit me in the end:( You are almost there though!
I love those rings too.
I actually think you look like you’ve lost weight. I mean, of course your belly is bigger, but your arms, hips, face, etc. all look thinner to me. I lost weight while I was pregnant, too. (Not on the scale, but you know what I mean.) All those calories you burn making a baby!
I know how you feel… the same here! And I have even more weeks than you!
take care,
Paty

I agree with Jules. The first thing i noticed is that you look thinner and that surprised me because it is supposed to be the opposite!! I swear i am not telling you this just to make you feel better. By the way..the “&” looks like a pregnant woman.. is that why you took the picture there?
Happy pregnancy!!

Holy mother! That girl is getting big. I agree with the other girls (and that happened to me too), you’ve lost weight everywhere else it looks like. That belly has gotten a lot bigger in just two weeks!

I’m 32(+) weeks right now as well, and let me tell you…you look FANTASTIC!
Yes, we’ve picked the name already! I won’t be sharing it on the blog though until she’s arrived. :)
Thanks, everyone. I think I just look smaller in proportion to my bigger and bigger belly. Well, that and my skirt is more form-fitting than the loose dresses I usually wear.
And I love that ring too… it has a bunch of fabric scraps and little baubles hanging off of it.
You look beautiful! :) I love the belly.. I held my son very “in” if that makes any sense and it was SO uncomfortable. So accept that small blessing as you begin to run out of room. :) The ring looks very cool. A close up would be awesome! :D

You look great!!! I love your outfit, I wish there were better clothing options back when I had my son (16 yrs ago). Definitely avoid the urge to take a bath. You will probably get stuck in the tub like I did!!!

Hey, you look great. The last bit of pregnancy is rough, especially physically and emotionally. I have never slept so little or been so on edge, I don’t think. Be good to yourself, relax, and just focus on making it, whatever it takes. So happy for you!
Just think….. soon you’ll be able to pick things up off of the floor without letting out involuntary sounds. I know that’s what I looked forward to with both of my pregnancies.
I’ve been reading your wonderful blog for a while, but this is my first time to comment…I hope if the stork ever finds me, I will look as cute as you!
Also – I loved your recent post on your bedroom and have been working diligently to recreate it for myself. Pink, brown and orange are my absolute favorite colors! Thank you for your creativity and sharing your home with us.
Um, ok, so last time I made this comment, I unintentionally pissed off the person, but here goes anyway!
You are bigger than I was at 40 weeks! Whhhheewww! There. I have said it. Honestly, I had to stick my belly out until 37 weeks in order for anyone to notice I was pregnant. I enjoyed those last three weeks of people rushing to help me SO much. Just two more months before your little bundle gets here! Hang in there and use lots of lotion on that belly.
This is great..Motherhood is fun, especially when you are a cool crafty mom such as yourself! I am so happy for you! We will be having a little girl in may! Take care of you and your little one!
You look so good for being 32 weeks pregnant! I remember saying I didn’t think I could possibly get any bigger around this time, and yet I think I did! Hang in there!!!
I remember two months before my due date people always looked kind of scared around me, like, “um, are you on your way to the hospital right now?” I was huge, but I’m only 5’1″ and had a 9 1/2 pound baby; there was nowhere for her to go but out.
I know it’s uncomfortable, but enjoy it. You look beautiful!
Are you blowing your belly out?? Just kidding- it’s SO fabulous to get to have a big round happy belly and for once NOT be trying to conceal it!!

I’m right there with you, only 2 weeks behind! It’s amazing that we’ll be getting bigger! I’m hoping your pregnancy goes smoothly. I’m under constant monitoring now but I’m hopeful that everything will turn out well. Good luck!
You look gorgeous!! Although having been there 2x before, I know you probably feel more like a beached whale, at least I did! Wow, it’s getting close, how exciting!!
I would love to make a birth announcement for your little girl when she finally arrives. Please check out my Etsy store at customizedstationary.etsy.com. I realize you make stationery, but I thought I’d let you know! You look great, by the way.
I just stumbled upon your blog for the first time and I’m so glad I did! How cute!
I just have to say, you look completely adorable! I am nearly 25 weeks along myself and I am having a hard time finding fashionable things to dress me and this growing bump in, but you do a great job :) – If you have any recommendations for cute/mod dresses that fit a growing baby bump for a moderate price, let me know! :)
Again, love the blog! Congrats on your new little one on the way! Take care, Wendi L.
I think you look great! As uncomfortable as it was at times I loved being pregnant, but I didn’t look as stylish as you always do.

You look beautiful – your silhouette is gorgeous.
Good luck with these last few weeks :)
Erin
February 18, 2009 at 5:32 amYou look Fantastic! …and rather artsy next to the big ampersand. It mirrors you at this stage so beautifully. Was that on purpose?
bungalowbliss
February 18, 2009 at 7:22 amI, too, noticed the similarity between you and the wall hanging!
You are coming right along and looking stunning. Love the ring!
