If you get a group of pregnant women together, one of the topics that inevitably comes up is stretchmarks and, more specifically, how to prevent them. Whilst a lot of people say there is nothing you can to stop them, I do feel that using good quality products can lessen the severity and, as in my last pregnancy, prevent them completely.

25 weeks pregnant

I know, I know, I haven’t updated you on bump for weeks. To make up for this, this week’s update is bang on time!

I am exactly 25 weeks pregnant today. The baby is about the size of a cauliflower, 13.6-14.8 inches long and weighs between 1.5-2.2lbs. I now feel really strong movements all the time, my tummy is constantly changing shape when a foot or an elbow is pushing out. It’s funny, when I look down I don’t think I look too big, just a little bloated, but then I’ll catch my reflection in a mirror or window and I’m like “woah there! I’m huge!”

There is a bit of a green and orange theme to the products in this post. It wasn’t intentional, I literally just noticed!

21 weeks pregnant bump pregnancy

Once again it feels like my bump hasn't really grown. It obviously has judging by the fit of my pyjamas, but it just doesn't look like it in the bumpfie photos I've been posting! The baby is really active and there is starting to be a pattern to his/her movements. Typically most active when I go to bed!
