bump : week 31







A very late, but very cozy, 31 week bump.  Some days I honestly feel enormous, and others like today it seems my belly has shrunk during the night.  I'm resting assured that baby is growing and progressing well within the normal range, but it's still a strange sight to see as things shift and progress in there.  These days I'm often wondering what this baby will be like - musical, goofy and full of whimsical dance moves like big sister? Perhaps a more calm, reserved and quiet child is on its way - an opposite.

As always, photos by my talented husband

    Oh Kate, I just think you will treasure these photos forever. As will your children. I think of them in the future, talking with you about their birthdays and being born and you will have these lovely treasures to share with the, from a moment that is so fleeting in time. My boys love to hear how they were while I was pregnant (one got active as soon as I laid down at night, another always got the hiccups) and I imagine your's will too. xxoo

    Such gorgeous photos! I know what you mean about feeling enormous one moment and small the next. I felt that way with my daughter a lot, I assumed she was just moving a lot during the night lol. So exciting that you're almost there though!

the birthing of alba mae

From the beginning, this pregnancy seemed so much the same, yet so distinctly different all at once. I didn't get sick, I wasn't too turned away by my favorite foods, I had occasional heartburn here and there and overall, was able to relax and enjoy the experience.  What was strange was how differently I was carrying - having been told more times than I could count that I had looked as if I had "swallowed a basketball".  I think I was persuaded a few times in my head that maybe this was  different, maybe it really was a baby boy.  Yet still, in my heart I had an overwhelming intuition I would be holding another little girl in my arms, someone so very similar to her sister yet so distinctly different all at once.
