There will be no big bellies in my future (at least until next year) so I decided I'll be brave and share my belly pictures too. If you are squeamish, you may want to turn away NOW....
You have been warned......
This is me a few days before having my 11lb, 1 oz son in June 2004. I wish I had a bare belly picture because this was before my twins tore up my nice, smooth skin.
This is 33 weeks pregnant with twins. And it gets worse...
These were taken the night before I gave birth to my twins at 39 weeks, 1 day. I gained just over 80 lbs and they weighed 7 lbs, 6 oz each. Hopefully this makes some 9 months pregnant mama feel a little better about her belly!

You look beautiful!! Thank you for sharing your belly :)
Gorgeous!! I am really glad you decided to post pics, you were and are so beautiful, and those girls, they are just as gorgeous as you!
Awesome! I'm in awe of Moms of twins... You look fantastic. I can't imagine... walking, going to the bathroom,... anything!
Here from the belly hop!
I feel your pain, I really do. I gained 50 lbs with my twins, they were 7 lbs 1 oz and 7 lbs 11 oz. Aren't you glad that it's over? I always think back to that when everyone is going in a different direction, and think that it's still easier now than it was being pregnant.
I don't know if it's because I'm going to start my period, can't have more babies, or because you're just so damn lovely in those pics, but I'm crying.
Thanks for sharing reality! My 4th child was 10 1/2 pounds and that's when my skin just reached the point of now return. I have 6 children and my belly is so stretch-marked up and folded over. They're all worth it!
Wow, love it! My twins were born at 39 weeks 1 day alos! They are 8 now, oldest son is 20 mos older. They were 6-12 and 7-6. I only gained 34 lbs, but they totally trashed my belly.
You're beautiful.
But seriously, OUCH. Your belly looks painful.
You go girl.
My goodness those are great!!!!
You must link up to my Bump! Photo Tag going on tomorrow! I’ll have a linky up … hope you’d like to play along and post your favorite pregnant belly pic!

And I was so proud of my 9lbs 8oz. I bow down. Great pictures!
Wow you belly looks suspended in air!
My twin belly was all over from the top of my chin to my knees!
I also had twins at 39 weeks, 7lbs 1 oz and 8lbs 2 oz.
It's like I gotta prop that belly up!
Again... WOW! Thanks for playing along!!
Steph
wow! thats a lot of baby! :)
Wow! Simply amazing!
OMGosh! 7 pounds apiece? Even thought you gained 80 pounds, your body didn't look big, just your belly! I don't even understand how you didn't topple over! LOL. I can't even imagine. You were beautiul though. Really.
Those are amazing photos... I feel bad for whining because of how I measured at 39 weeks. Blush.
Thank you everyone, for saying such sweet things about my torpedo belly.
And I almost did fall over several times. I was very front-heavy!
I can't believe you made it to 39 weeks. Great job! I also can't believe you were brave enough to post a bare belly pic. I thought about it but didn't want to get anyone sick. My 36 weeks with twins belly was not a pretty sight.
I found my way via blog party...Amazing!
Wow - you looked great!! Thanks for sharing that. :)
Hello! God bless you!!! May He strengthen and encourage you. I came across your blog while looking at images of twin pregnancies. I'm due with #10 in June, and everyone says I look so big, so I've been a little curious since I don't have ultrasounds. I have homebirths, too! :o) Rebecca
