Is there something wrong with my belly?

Obviously yes - it's huge...of course that's because there's a baby in it. Understandable then that it might seem odd to me, given the circumstances, but that doesn't prevent me from periodically obsessing about my belly. What's perplexing me is its recent expansion directly out - its developed almost a peak, and I joked last night to my husband that if this trend continues I'll shortly have a triangle rather than a belly.

For now I'll chalk it up to another of the many mysteries of pregnancy. You can buy books, scan websites, join online pregnancy forums (i'm guilty of all) but there's just tons of things that no one really understands the why and cause of. Like morning sickness and BH contractions.

Meanwhile I stare at my belly, trying to grasp how an actual person exists inside it, and wonder how much odder it will look as we wind our way through these last 3 months. And how very much odder it will be when it's empty again and our child floats freely in our arms rather than in our dreams.
