Bump shot and a little sad...

First, I finally took a new bump picture...

Let's compare:

Week 11:
15w4d

I weighed in today and so far, my total weight gain has only been 3lbs which sounds silly because I look so much bigger than I did pre-pregnancy.

So now for the "little sad" part...

Maybe I am just emotional from my crazy hormones, but a thought struck me a couple of days ago and I can't let it go. I realized that I was going to be missing out on a part of pregnancy that I've been looking forward to for years. Decorating the nursery.

What I mean is that most pregnant women get to experience decorating their nursery and having pictures of it prior to baby's arrival. In our case, our new house will just about be ready, so it doesn't make any sense for me to decorate a room upstairs that I will never put our baby in. Our bedroom is the only one downstairs (we have three upstairs) and I will be keeping the baby with us. (In our new house, most of the bedrooms are on the main floor).

Anyway, I'm sure I will have everything bought and ready to go but I am just sad that I don't get to put the room together until after the baby is here. OK, totally lame, I know!

You look cute - you are definetly showing!!!!! You were sooo skinny before - baby has to go somewhere! :-)
I've only gained 3 lbs also (as of this morning) but I feel huge!
You will have fun decorating a whole new house so the nursery will fall into place! You'll just get the fun later!

You look adorable and you are showing!!!!

Even though it seems sad now, you will have so much fun putting the nursery together when it is time. This just gives you a little longer to REALLY think about what you want to do :)!

Oh you still get to decorate--don't worry about that! You will just get to do it after the fact --which might be better (since then you will know the baby's personality and be able to decorate accordingly).

You look presh! Bumps are the best!!!

Your little belly is adorable. I understand your feelings about the nursery, but this way you get more time to plan it.
