What 9 Months Pregnant Looks Like

Thank you all SO much for sharing with me! It is amazing to see how everyone wears pregnancy so differently. I hope you enjoy viewing this small selection of images of the gorgeous expectant mom bods that were submitted as much as I do!

Went overdue and was induced (by a midwife practice). Still trying to understand those who go into healthful full-term spontaneous labor prior to their due date with their first baby. How does that happen? Do you drink a potion? Did I just not have luck? We tried sex, walking, and red raspberry leaf and cumin teas. I was pregnant with other first timers at the same time and I was the only one overdue. Two due after me went before my own due date. Jeez. It messes with you.
ReplyI’m not quite overdue yet, but the doc thinks I might go over. I’m 39 weeks tomorrow and haven’t shown the slightest sign of labor, all NSTs (NonStress Tests) are perfect. This is my first and two girls I know that were due before me (one was the 24th and the other was supposed to be due on the 11th. They both had theirs over the new year holiday.) I’m just hoping they got my due date wrong or something. They aren’t perfect and can be off a little. They kept going between 11 weeks and 12-14 weeks when I had my first appt/ultrasounds…therefore if I was 11 weeks, then I should be due the 25th, if not, then I could be a week or two off. Ughhhhhhh. We aren’t doing anything WRONG…they’re human, make mistakes, and we have no say in when OUR babies decide to arrive on the scene. Lol get used to it now!!!
