Has anyone seen my belly button? &nbsp;I swear I left it *right there* in the middle of my tummy section. &nbsp;Hmmm...Marco?????

I remember the days of putting on a shirt and then looking in the mirror to make sure that it fit properly. &nbsp;To make certain it matched with the pants and hit at the right length. &nbsp;These days it is closer to seeing if I can zip up my pants -or- at least hiding the fact that they are indeed unzipped, and making sure that my brassière is sort of doing its job. &nbsp;Yeah, it's probably time to look into some stretchy pants and bigger undergarments. &nbsp;Any other mums (or mums-to-be) out there find some odd sense of satisfaction in delaying the purchase of maternity clothes for just <em>one more da</em>y? &nbsp;It's silly, I know. &nbsp;I have even heard that the pants with the stretchy middle are SO comfortable, that it is difficult to want to return to normal pants. &nbsp;I guess it makes sense that I am having these thoughts on All Saints' Day, b/c I think St. Jude is probably rolling his eyes every time I pray to him whilst attempting to squirm into my regular jeans. &nbsp;The trick to choosing the right size of maternity clothes is what has me hung-up. &nbsp;I need serious help. &nbsp;Aaaaand asking Stephen for advice is not what I had in mind. &nbsp;I don't think St. Jude wants to help tackle this one either. &nbsp;"St. Jude, do these pants look like they fit...you know...in the rear section?" &nbsp;Does the saint of "impossible situations" work on minor cases such as this? &nbsp;:P

<strong>Happy All Saints' Day! </strong>To celebrate, I've posted the FIRST belly shot we have taken. &nbsp;21 weeks, 4 days (the time passes so quickly).[caption id="attachment_353" align="aligncenter" width="384" caption="21w, 4d"]<img class="size-full wp-image-353 " title="JA 21w4d" src="http://teamoswald.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/dscn9395.jpg" alt="" width="384" height="512" />[/caption]</strong>
