When I was pregnant with Bridger I swelled up like a balloon. I figured most people did this and so I didn't really worry about it. Little did I know that it was a symptom of pre-elcampsia and was a little bit more serious than I thought. My Dr. here was a little worried that the pre-eclampsia might come back and told me to watch for the symptoms. I wasn't sure if my feet were swollen or not and so I found a picture of my feet with Bridger at 34 weeks, after a long day at work, and determined that my feet aren't swollen this time.
Everything is going great. I went to the Dr. yesterday and I don't have to go back for 2 weeks because my blood pressure is fine and I'm not swelling. So far I've gained 36 lbs-yikes!! Too bad I can't blame it on swelling...I guess I'll have to lose it the old fashioned way-work! Only 5 weeks to go...

You look so cute! I know you don't feel it, but you do. I had a little giggle when I pictured you sitting there taking pictures of your own feet. Funny visual!
Thanks for the pregnancy picture. You look really really cute. You should look on Holly's (my sister) blog. She is pregnant and you guys are almost doing the exact same pose. I just looked at her and thought it was funny that you both put that post up today!
You look great! So cute! Well...your feet in the first picture, not so cute. haha! Sorry I'm a bit out of it, do you know what you're having?
Nat and I were just talking today about how you never post pictures of yourself!!! You look so great. My feet were really big with Taylee, though I didn't have preeclampsia. Thank you for the post! I do miss being pregnant sometimes.
you are a cute prego lady! i am amazed at the difference between your ankles with bridger and baby number 2. wow! happy five more weeks!
HOLLY FEET!! jsut kidding I can't believe the difference though...looking back did you laugh that you thought you're feet weren't swollen? MAn!
You look so cute though and I can't wait.I just wish I lived closer now so I could enjoy the new baby too!:(

Looking good! I'm in denial right now since I didn't need maternity pants until about 7 months with Jace and I'm already in them. Tough! Can't wait to see #2.
You look great! Congrats and I hope everything continues to go well!

Look how cute you are. I'm so glad you have this blog so it almost feels like we hang out. Your feet look great--much better than with Bridger for sure. I'm excited to see the little guy! (and meet Bridger!)
I like to see you pregnant! I, too, had holy cow pitting edema when I was pregnant with my first. I thought it was cool, though! You look so cute! I'm jealous you're so far ahead of me, even though I recently REALLY started to feel the baby kick so I'm way happy about that!
That is what my feet looked like. I am really excited for you guys. Colette you look so good and Bridger is adorable. I can't believe you less than 5 weeks. How exciting.
