Prim, proper, and pregnant | Dearest Lou

Prim, proper, and pregnant

When Daryl was taking these pictures he kept saying, "Dang, look at that pregnant belly!" I was shocked when I got home and saw these pictures, my belly looks huge! I wore this dress to my friend David's wedding a week and a half ago and it wasn't near this tight. I decided I wanted to wear this dress today because it'll probably be the last time I fit in it until baby is here. Lets just say I couldn't pick anything up off of the floor in fear that my dress would rip.

I haven't done any consistent exercising this whole pregnancy and I'm now determined to get my butt into shape. It's so hard to go walking or to the gym by myself though, I wish I had someone down here to go with me. Once I move back down to the Salt Lake area though I know it will be easy to go to the gym since I can go with my dad 5 times a week. I also want to eat more fruits, veggies, and eat more regularly in general. 

Doctors appointment went good yesterday I've gained a total of 6 lbs and baby's ultrasound results came out normal and healthy which was great to hear. I was reading in one of my pregnancy books and it says that it's normal to gain 1 lb per week after the half way point until the end of my pregnancy so we'll see how big I get ;P

  16. You are such a teeny tiny preggers lady :) Only your belly looks pregnant with that sweet baby! You can still totally rock a slender fitting dress like this, and I love the vintage nautical feel.
