This one goes out to my friend Amy who thought I looked good in my post last week in the delivery room. She comment on how she was all hot and bloated when she delivered her kids. Well, Amy I have some photos to share with your girl! I never thought I would shared big and bloated pictures of myself! But, since that day was also a BIG Blessing here it goes. :)
I was induced so my delivery date was a scheduled event...which means no sleep the night before! I was so anxious and happy the night before I barely slept at all. But, as soon as I got to the hospital (I think it was a gift from God) I was calm the entire time and had the best delivery imaginable.
In the photo above I have been in pain for about 2 hours and soon had my epidural. Not looking too bad or bloated just yet, although a little high from some medication causing blurry vision!
Okay, clearly very bloated here right (I mean I just got stitches!) after delivery. They took Pebbles to get cleaned up and I asked for some FOOD! I had not had a bite in 14 hours. My Mom got me a Mt. Dew while I waited for my turkey sandwich! I didn't drink caffeine for my entire pregnancy.
So, there you have it Big, Bloated and oh so Blessed!
Go check out We are That Family for more fun today!

Woo!! Nothin' like having the baby on the OUTSIDE is there? Who cares about the bloating - we're not pregnant anymore. I loved that part. And I'm still loving it almost 11 years after the birth of my youngest - lol. Thanks for sharing your special day.
I am still bloated from having all of them and that is why I am finally losing it all.
LOL, you my dear, were GORGEOUS!!!

WOW! You do delivery very well!
You look beautiful!
I still look like a marshmallo!
You have great post-baby pics! I will never post mine!
You look great! I'm sure if I ever went through childbirth I'd be screaming and crying in every picture, or I would have probably taken the camera away from whoever was photographing me and thrown it across the room.
Thanks for sharing!
Great pics! When I saw yours, I thought "now there's something I could use for 'Fro weeks - pictures of my 3 pregnancies." Then I thought "no, the world's not ready for that!"
You, however, looked adorable!
You look good to me! How did you keep your hair looking so good? Mine always looked horrendous!
I think that's the perfect way to summarize being pregnant!
Even big and bloated, you still look very cute... must be the pregnancy glow. :-) Perhaps I'll share some bloated preggo pics on my blog soon...you just might have given me my next Fro' idea. Thanks girlie!
I think new moms are beautiful.
Except for the pictures of me! Bloat city!
Wilma, my dear, you are not bloated!!!! lol
You looked wonderful for having stitches, exhausted and famished! ;o}
Thanks for posting these. I will never reveal mine. Now that I think about it, I think I have burned them! lol
Have a great day.
You looked great! Trust me, I wish that I had looked half that good when in labor or after giving birth!
Yeah, I got some serious bloat happening over here times three.
I need to dig up the photos of me when I had my first. They gave me some crazy medication and I looked HIGH AS A BLOOMIN KITE.
I'm fairly confident that there are NO pictures of me SMILING during labor and delivery!! How in the WORLD did you look so cute???
Epidural!
I was numb for 24 hours from the waist down! Did not feel much pain until afterwards. My recovery was very hard.
Girl, I wish I had looked that good right after delivery. My face was HUGE swollen and I threw up my dinner.
And I had quite the epidural myself. Had to get my catheter put back in (both times, actually).
Not big & bloated at all. Definitely blessed & beautiful!
