AKA. Week 15 PLUMPdate
AKA. 15 Weeks: Oh Bump, Where Art Thou?
Man, oh man. Time is a-flyin’, and I figured it was about time that I start documenting this little growing baby of mine! Up to this point, I must admit that I’ve had a pretty dream-worthy pregnancy. Sure I went through the major exhaustion of the first trimester and even had to battle the flu a few weeks back, but I’ve somehow managed to miss a lot of the other symptoms. (Trust me, I’m counting my blessings!!)
Weight gain has been minimal, only about two pounds so far, which is kind of mind boggling considering how much my body is changing! I swear my bust is reaching astronomical sizes these days and my hips feel like they’re getting wider. Although my lower belly is definitely expanding, I’ve yet to see a true bump appear. I’ve just been feeling super-chubs and awkward in all of my clothes.
As far as maternity clothes go, I’ve been sporting a pair or two of maternity pants for the office along with wearing my Bella Band with regular clothes. I still have a couple pair of jeans that fit normally, but I did order my first pair of maternity jeans online this week!
I’m most looking forward to seeing a true bump appear. Doesn’t every woman want that cute little round belly? (Although I’ll also admit, I’m not trying to rush the weight gain. As my mom pointed out, there will be plenty of that to come!)
Glad you’re having a good time – some of my friends, wow they were really really sick for a long long time. Can’t wait to see that bump!

Yay! it is so exciting! You look stellar even if you feel like your clothes don’t fit you cannot tell in this picture!
Yea, when my boss was pregnant she kept wanting her bump to look like a bump, but then it did and started getting HUGE! :p Although the rest of her stayed super tiny
Lauren you look stunning despite how you feel about your hips! You are looking amazing!
Glad to hear you’re feeling well and I know that a cute bump will make an appearance very soon!

Glad you’re feeling well! Can’t wait to see how you dress that little bump when the time comes!
When my sister got pregnant I couldn’t wait for her baby bump to appear. I had to wait almost 6 months for this!! I guess you can just enjoy all the stages, right?

I’m glad you’re enjoying your pregnancy and that you’re feeling well now. You definitely look good on your white top and black jeans. I love the nude flats too.

Dont’ worry that cute belly will come and then it will continue to grow until you don’t even recognize yourself anymore. But it’s the best thing in the world!!!!!

Don’t worry! Bumps just sneak up on you. You look down one day and it’s just THERE. And you’re like, how’d that happen?!
I can’t wait to follow along with your bumpdates! That’s so great that you didn’t have to deal with a lot of the first trimester symptoms! But that stinks that you had to battle the flu! You look great in a white tee, by the way!
It’s amazing how long it feels like it takes for he bump to come! It was so gradual for me. You look so cute!
Glad you’re having a good pregnancy! I think it’s probably a good thing the bump is taking it’s time to show, but when it appears it will be exciting to see.

You look great! How exciting for you. It’s so nice to hear about an easy pregnancy so far, I feel like all I’ve heard lately are horror stories and those do not make me excited to ever get pregnant.

Yay!! Congratulations Lauren!!
The bump will come 🙂 Mine didn’t appear til 20-25 weeks in my pregnancies, and because I was wearing a winter coat this past pregnancy, barely anyone in public ever knew I was pregnant at all. I found that disappointing because I wanted those nice comments & helpful gestures as I carried a huge purse and a 30 lb toddler around stores 🙂
