I know, I know. I'm a photographer. You don't have to remind me.
As much as documenting this pregnancy by taking a picture of my belly every week is what it feels like I should do, I haven't. Partially for vanity reasons (you ask a girl who has struggled with her weight her whole life to take a picture of her BELLY every week?!) and partially because I've been documenting it in other ways that are particularly more special to me
But. For the outside world, particularly friends and family - of which Cliff is tops and seriously does a happy-dance when he thinks my belly has gotten bigger (a happy dance for a bigger belly?! goodness pregnancy is a gift) - I know it's important in some ways. I know it the moment I post one picture and the whole world rejoices and takes pleasure in my increasing rotundness. Fancy that!
At least I've got what I've got, and the changes are much more noticeable between each than would, say, a week by week. :) Thank God for the iPhone.

Awww, this post makes me smile!!!
love it! i totally hear you about how much taking a photo of your belly goes against the grain! i would imagine i would share all your sentiments exactly! i would love to hear, if it's not too personal/special, the other ways you are documenting this! I love hearing other people's ideas of how to track their pregnancy and their baby's first year because then I can think about what I would do, so I don't get to the child's 2nd birthday and go "oh man, I wish I would've taken photos ever week" or something like that :)
