  1. Another warning about the sneezing- especially after the baby really starts to grow and press on your bladder, you pee just a little everytime you sneeze. After delivery this is even worse, oh and when you laugh too. Isn’t motherhood wonderous!!!

  2. Just burps? 😉

    I used to joke about the pregnancy glow too – later on it will be the sheen of sweat from the effort to get up. Or move your hands in an animated fashion whilst you speak. Its FANTASTIC.

    Lovely pics! Can’t wait to see more! And since you always requested pics of my preggo belly, when do we get to see yours? 🙂
