I think you look great!

Okay, here's mine from today. I've never taken a preggo picture of myself (usually DH does it). Anyway, here's 15 wks. 3 days. This is after two "full-term size" pregnancies. I feel pretty big already. I think my fundal height is somewhere around 19 to 20 wks. I probably looked about like this at about 26 weeks with DD!

As far as kicks, I've felt some tiny "pops" here and there, but usually only a few times a day at this point. I'm sure you'll start feeling them more soon.

Don't worry guys...the big explosion for me came between weeks 18 and 22...you guys look just right for your weeks!

 

Oh Lord, you don't even want to see what I look like now. I posted one a while back ... I'm just huge now!! And your tummy looks great!!!!!!!!!!

 

Aw, you gals look so cute. My DD calls me "Ginormous" - it fits. Can you believe that I have not take a single belly pic of myself yet? I only have one from DD, too. I'm going to wait until the last minute. Maybe I will tomorrow and post it if I remember.

 

You guys look great for the weeks that you are!! I think my explosion
came around 20 weeks! NOW I am HUGE!!! I have people ask me ALL the time if I am due any minute!!!

 

Here is something to aspire to...Me at 36 weeks!

 

I want to see everyone! Please show again even if you just did. I wish so much we had a belly pic sticky, cuz having a twin pregnancy is so different from the 'regular' kind. And everyone carries differently too. Like when the twins are on top of each other and the moms stick out so far. (Wow. Major respect here) Mine are side by side vertex right now and not taking up too much space.

That said, I have been showing my belly on another forum, so here's what we have so far:

11 weeks
21 weeks
24 weeks
27 weeks

 

Here is Steph at 35 weeks..

Got Twins?

I only made a week past that last pic so thats as big as I got. I was measuring 40 weeks there!

Can't wait to see more pics. I love to see sono pics and belly pics of multiples!

 

I agree that we should have a belly pic sticky. I know it's been mentioned before, but nothing has come of it.

Thanks for sharing your pics ladies!!

 

Everyone looks great! Love those bellies. I have probably posted this before but here is me at 38 weeks...38 Weeker

 

Wow you ladies look great with your bellies. I was asked yesterday when my baby is due and i had to explain that it is twins. I hav enot yet taken any photos and this has inspired me to do so. Will take one and post it tomorrow. And as for feeling them kick, I have felt them from about 13 weeks (not my first pregnancy) and now they are kicking amd moving more.

 

Ok, there are a couple of belly picks where I am wondering how you girls stood upright!

I need to get a belly pic. I feel huge. Mine are transverse...don't know what difference that makes in how you carry, but I feel like I look full term at 27 weeks and last measurement was 10 weeks ahead.

 

Wow - these are great! Even my 3 year old is having a blast looking at tummies! He said "Look, Mom, big bellies like yours!" I haven't taken a pic yet - but I am one of those unlucky mom's who carry 'low and out'. It's funny I don't tip forward all the time! I am meauring 35-36 weeks - I'll try to get a picture posted here soon. I just need to figure out how to do that!

Thanks for sharing all the beautiful bellies!

 

OMG, this is so fun!!

Here is me at 37 weeks with my twins (left) and 36 weeks with my singleton (right). He was 8lb 5oz born at exactly 40 weeks and my twins were 6lb 1oz and 6lb 4oz born at 37w2d (induced). I gained 40# with Ethan and 38# with my twins (go figure!) I'm 5'10"

Sometimes I miss the magic of the belly

 

Here is mine at 38 weeks, the day I delivered.

Ok ladies I'm just 20 weeks now and really starting to feel giant. All I can say about the 30 plus week pictures is GULP!!! You guys are tough tough tough and strong strong strong!

I have a horrible question... I do not have any idea what to expect.... how did you get your tummies back into somewhat normal shape after being so gol darn stretched out? I have informed hubby that I may need a tummy tuck (haha)! I have a few stretch marks from my first born (he was only a 31 weeker) but how did you deal with your poor skin being so stretched?

Trying to get prepared.

I did not get my stomach back. But some of the women who have posted and looking at pictures seem to have. I do need a tummy tuck..and will get one in a couple of years when I know for sure I am done having babies.

No matter what..for me it is worth it..even the twin skin that sometimes seems to hang down to my knees...LOL (just joking)


Brandy

 

Merijo--My stomach isn't totally back yet, but if it stayed this way I wouldn't be too upset. I did not get twin skin thank God. I heard all about that from many ladies and I know it's pretty common. My neighbor told me that they did a poll once and it seemed the ones who had c-sections more of them had twin skin? Anyway...I just need to tone up a bit more and I think it will be more back to normal. I lucked out and really got maybe two stretch marks on my belly that I really can't even see anymore. My hiney on the other hand is another story! IT was bad, but they have faded a LOT. Try not to worry though! You'll get through it and it will be all worth it in the end! I think I'll be saving up to get my boobs a lift though!! HAHA!

 

I have not had a tight pretty tummy since I was in my early or mid-20's. So that's not what I'm expecting (I'm 36 now). Yes, I am a bit worried about having the skin stretched down to my knees. But, like you all said, you deal with it and your love your babies. It's totally worth it!!

The agony is, my husbands entire family mom, sister, even the SIL all have beautiful bodies after having given birth 2 to 4 times. Not a stretch mark to be seen and these ladies wear bikinis to the beach! Argh! I told MIL that I ahd a few stretch marks from Will (first baby) and she was a little shocked. This is MY hang up - I married and wonderful man from Europe and always feel like the fat American.

Maybe breastfeeding will at least take the weight off the rest of my body and then the tummy I'll just roll up and tuck in?!?!

Wow, looking at some of these pics makes me wonder how I'm going ot walk toward the end of my pregnancy. However everyone looks great and it amkes me excitede and nervous at the same time to get to the 30+ week mark.

 

Thanks for such a great idea! I remember searching the internet at the beginning of my pregnancy for twinbelly-pics, without plenty succes. And there you are, all you beautiful ladies.

So, I´m trying to show my belly at about 32 weeks, though I´m not sure weather it´ll work, as I never posted an url here before:

My boys at week 32

 

Ok , as it didn´t work, I´m trying antoher one:

My boys at week 32

 

Here is 25 weeks for me.
