While I am so excited to be pregnant and can't wait to meet my little guy, watching the scale go up and seeing my body change and get bigger has not been the easiest thing for me... So today I decided to embrace my bump and wear the dress below that showed it off.  What a wonderful thing it was. I have always been a self conscience person, so much so that I used to worry about my hand placement when talking to people, but today I felt beautiful. I went to church and heard so many wonderful things about the importance of women and mothers and their important role. It made me think how lucky I am to be pregnant and to have this opportunity to be a mother, and how lucky I am to bring this little boy into this world with a loving and supportive husband.  I hope all of us can remember how lucky we are to have this opportunity to be pregnant, because there are so many out there trying to become mothers who deserve it just as much.  19 weeks
