One of the things I was really excited about when becoming pregnant was that I would be able to take weekly bump photos to see how my belly, and baby, were growing. I love seeing other people take these photos, and I couldn’t wait to take my own. We got started right away, taking them at week 4. I’ve been taking them once a week ever since. Today, I’m sharing my bump’s progress.
Bump Photos
Those first three photos are sized differently than the rest. We were just starting out, and I wasn’t for sure how I wanted each photo to look. But by week 7, I had it down.
I love seeing the different locations I was at each week. It’s also neat to look at the photos where I was wearing the same outfit — it really helps you see the difference in how big my belly is.
Of course, I still have a few weeks left. Even though I can’t imagine my belly getting much bigger! Here are the last photos I’ve taken. Who thinks I’ll make it all the way to week 40?
Here are some holiday photos too just for fun. This really helps you see the difference since there’s a larger time span between each photo! I wonder if Raylee will still be in my belly come St. Patrick’s Day.
It’s been so fun documenting what we’ve been doing each week of this pregnancy. I may make a photo book out of these photos. You may be wondering how I got the fun words and artwork on each photo. I talked about that in my 5 Best Pregnancy Apps post. Yep, it’s an app! So check out that post if you want more details!

I was gigantic with tessa and made it past 41 weeks. Don’t be surprised if you’re “late.” 🙂

This is so neat to see! It’s amazing how you weren’t showing at all, and the BAM the bump is on full display! 😉

So happy for you! I delivered at barely 38 weeks. My little fellow was too excited to stay in any longer. 🙂
I enjoy seeing the weekly photos of others, and I thought about taking weekly photos myself. But… it was too much work for me so I ended up not doing it.
I was really good at taking weekly photos of our son after he was born for the first 6 weeks for size comparisons (since he was born so small), and then monthly photos until January when I was really sick. I had 5 different illnesses/colds/flu between Dec. 22 and Feb. 15 and I was working full-time so I was too wiped out to do pretty much anything. Meh.

Wow, I don’t hear of many who have delivered that early. I’m kind of hoping she comes early, but we’ll see. Being that sick for so long sounds terrible! I’m glad you are better now!
