How Big Is HUGE

I have had a few friends recently complain about how big they are when they are 9 months pregnant. I would just like to say that I have never in my life seen another person who sticks out as far as I do. And here is a picture to prove it...
Now really, that looks totally fake right? But it's not! That is a real live BASKETBALL!!! Or did I swallow a watermelon without knowing it? I don't know how physics and physiology have combined to make this work. Connor still looks at me funny- in amazement. And you might think that this is a big baby, or maybe two, but it is not- maybe a 7.5 lb er at the most!
Sadly, I get so many funny compliments from strangers- one lady at the park said she would pray for me!
So next time you think your big, you can look at my blog again!

I would rather look as cute as you with a basketball tummy than get HUGE and swollen EVERYWHERE like me:) I love your hair too, I May just have to copy it... If I am brave enough to cut mine.

I agree - you should get a prize for sticking out, but a much bigger prize for maintaining such an amazing figure everywhere around that basketball! Oh, and, how in the world did you manage to pull off a fancy birthday party so close to your due date. You are super woman!

That is so funny because you are SOOO tiny everywhere else. It really does look like you've stuck a basketball in your shirt! I wish I looked that cute pregnant. Good luck!

Ditto what everyone else said. You are so tiny everywhere else. You look great. And by the way i think my cousin sticks out further that you at the end - she has a tiny frame but she pops out 9 lb. babies! Ouch.

love it! I think you look great! You don't even look pregnant anywhere else. I love it when you turn around and people say, "whoa!" -- think of it as a compliment! good luck with the last little bit of being pregnant!

You are incredibly cute, Michal. And you don't have too much longer before you'll be done and looking normal again. That does totally look like you have a basketball under your shirt. Happy Easter guys!

You are so cute though!! I wish i got big in my stomach instead of everywhere else... maybe by the time i get to number 4 i'll be good like you!!

Also, Ashlyn's party was the cutest thing ever. You are the best mom!

I love that the lady said she'd pray for you! Too funny!

You look super cute! Lots of women would kill to look like that pregnant!

You guessed right! Just as your pregnancy is coming to a close, I'm just beginning - only 8 weeks along so far. Congratulations to you guys. Tell the family hello. Take care over the coming weeks and get some sleep if you can!
Love, Alesha

Oh my gosh, a kindred spirit! I'll email you a picture of me with Abby so we can comiserate...I actually had one girl (who was already a mother and our age I might add-so you'd think she'd know better) ask me "if they had harnesses for people like me!" Another woman told me that "she needed her pregnant daughter to see me and that I would make her feel MUCH better because I was HUGE!" Yep. Not to mention the comments at MY OWN baby showers! But we'll save those for another day... or maybe just start a blog for all of them? lol

Yes, you swallowed a basketball, but it's all baby!! When I get huge, I get huge everywhere!! Honestly, I think you make one adorable pregnant lady!! If only my 10lb babies could look that cute in me!!
