Up Close and Personal

with my 30 week pregnant belly. Bear with me; I was bored and had a camera in hand.

Here's my view. Note the lovely blue veins and the little red mole. I didn't have a mole on my body before my first pregnancy. When I was pregnant with Clara, I exploded with those little red ones, mostly on my torso.


Here's a little tidbit for you: when you are underweight, you sometimes have more body hair (which I can attest to). I read about it when I was learning about anorexia (no, I'm not, nor have I ever been anorexic). It's your body's way of trying to keep you warm since you lack fat. Fortunately, I'm blond so it doesn't bother me too much.

You also grow more hair on your belly when you're pregnant. So I'm pretty much a hairy beast right now. But, like I said it doesn't bother me. Obviously or else I wouldn't post these frighteningly close up shots.

Have you ever wondered what the inside of your belly button looks like? No, well then you can just skip this next picture :)
