I am starting with #2 because the #1 Milestone I actually passed (besides getting the Big Positive) was getting to meet my new prenatal doctor yesterday. Sweet! I'll write about that after, but for now: what's fresh in my mind!
Today I got to experience what it was like trying to take pregnant belly photos for the first time. Oh my goodness what a ridiculous experience to have. Now, I am by no means someone who thinks anyone should be self-conscious of their belly, but how absolutely unnatural is it to have a photo that doesn't accentuate your face, or your whole body standing next to something cool or something like that? How awkward to have a photo completely focused on your stomach!
And then you get on Pinterest and see all these cute ideas of week to week photos, and get horribly intimidated by all the adorably awesome ideas, to the point that you really can't just pick one. Oh, and of course there has to be the ridiculous these-will-only-ever-see-family-photo-albums pictures. Of course.
Pregnancy Milestone Rating:
Awkward: 7/10
Embarrassing: 2/10
Fun/Funny: 10/10
Worthwhile: 10/10
Extras: For this pregnancy I want to narrow down to one or two cute week-to-week photo themes, and next pregnancy I'll choose differently. That way I can experience a bunch, but not be overwhelmed all at once! Now, time to decide...erg!
Cheers!
