Growing Pregnant Belly Week By Week

Pregnancy Week By Week Pictures

Hello, Tarzan here!

Welcome to Pregnant Jane’s Pregnancy week by week picture gallery.  Throughout Jane’s pregnancy, we’ve taken pictures of Jane’s pregnant belly – trying to do so every Friday or Saturday.  And it wasn’t always easy…

Many of the below pregnancy week by week pictures below were taken in the middle of pregnancy hormone arguments.  Sometimes we weren’t talking.  Sometimes Jane was mad at something I said because she took it the wrong way.  And sometimes I was mad at Jane for some reason.  But one way or another, we were able to keep up with this pregnancy week by week page.

However, many of the pregnancy week by week photos were taken with laugher and awe – amazed by how much Jane’s pregnant belly has grown week by week.  The only week that we missed was pregnancy week 22, which was when Jane’s sex drive finally kicked back into gear… for that week anyway.  :)

It’s been an amazing ride watching Jane’s pregnant belly grow each and every week.  Pregnancy is incredible – even through emotions can run wild at times, pregnancy has brought Jane and I closer and more in love. :)

So have fun looking at Jane’s pregnancy week by week pictures below and feel free to comment on the bottom of this page.

Thanks!
Tarzan

Below are photos taken of Jane

What great fun … what a surprise – a big one – finding out your a preggers… I know how you feel (it happened to me twice – both boys – I think boys are the surprisers)… you gotta respect that little soul in you showing up uninvited so to speak and crashin’ your party… enjoy the ride! Watch out for icecream cravings!! I gained over 60 lbs each time – loved the being pregnant part and the bigger boobs – delivery not so much! How about those belly casts?! Thanks for sharing your journey (0:

Jane and Tarzan – Thanks for the pictures! Jane, your belly is absolutely beautiful! I’m only 16 weeks and I wish I looked so good!

14 Taylor 06.19.09 at 7:20 pm

i know what you mean about maternity insurance. insurance can cover everything else, but not a baby. i had to go through hell to get assistance through medicaid. Good Luck!

15 DeLorean 07.14.09 at 12:25 pm

Im am so happy you guys are willing to do this…. So special of you guys i wish we had the means and know how to put up a web page for our baby.. Also. there arent too many website sites were you can get such great pic.! With week by week growth! I admire you Tarzan and Jane thanks

16 Tarzan 07.19.09 at 7:05 pm

19 bandffirstpregnancy 08.04.09 at 2:29 pm

I love these pictures – I’m in week 12 and feel much better looking at your belly!
Yes – please show us the ’shrinking’ down! I saw another site that did that – it’s AMAZING how that works! :)

20 Dallely 08.04.09 at 9:11 pm

Hey tarzan you should post a belly photo of Jane holding little monkey on her belly..ofcouse he can face the wall to keep his identity…and also post some after pics to see how Jane gets her body back in shape…just some ideas….

21 Tarzan 08.04.09 at 10:23 pm

You two read my mind or read the post I will be publishing tomorrow that includes a photo of Jane now. :) I’m too tired to finish the post… wanted to get it up tonight, but also need to sleep… it’s going to be a long night I think. Uggghhhh.

22 superkaty 08.07.09 at 9:18 am

this is so very, very encouraging. jane, you look FABULOUS!

23 Jackie 08.10.09 at 11:20 am

Wow that is awesome. How wonderful that you did that ~ I only have a few pics of me when I w as pregnant. When I see the progression of others I wish I had taken more. :)

24 Laura 08.10.09 at 7:38 pm

I am only 17 weeks pregnant with my first baby, but I can’t believe how small your tummy is one week post-partum! I guess I expected it to be a bit bigger for a little while at least. You look great!

25 madge 08.21.09 at 6:21 pm

We need more post partum belly pics! Monkey is a month old!

26 bandfsfirstpregnancy 09.04.09 at 12:19 pm

*sigh* your pregnant belly looks so much better than mine! :) And it does make ME feel better – your postpartum belly gives me hope for after baby (I know, so vain!) :)
I hope you are doing well!

27 Madge 09.15.09 at 9:00 pm

We need an update!

28 TIffany DeJesus 09.29.09 at 8:45 am

I think i am pregnant and my stomach has started to look like yours did when you had your very first picture. but all the pregnancy test i have taken come up negative. can you tell me what you think.

29 NMN 10.20.09 at 5:34 pm

If the tests are negative, you are not pregnant, just fat.

30 iffy 11.03.09 at 5:21 am

Good thanks i love this site and have seen a what i am looking for.

Thanks once more

31 19 weeks 11.27.09 at 5:01 pm

ts me again… Just wanted to say good luck and I hope the baby and J come out Great!! Im 16 weeks and so excited… WiSh you 3 the best…

32 Christine 01.01.10 at 10:44 pm

I like the one week post partum picture. I am due in 2 days, and wasnt sure what I would come out of this all looking like. I know we all arent the same, but still, more promising! :D

33 June 01.02.10 at 10:50 am

The belly pictures are great! Helps to see another belly to make sure everything looks right!

34 baby photographer shaun 01.12.10 at 3:02 pm

That’s a great idea. I photograph quite a few “bumps” . it’s not for everyone but love the way you can see yours grow over the weeks.

35 BandFsfirstpregnancy 01.19.10 at 12:16 pm

I’m trying to tell when you ‘dropped.’ Did you ever notice it? :)

36 Lj 02.24.10 at 9:47 pm

I’m wondering the size of your baby when he was born… Because my 25 week belly looks like her 30 week belly….. went from 117 currently 143 at week 25 and everything but my belly is skinny as a stick!

37 KCM 03.16.10 at 4:40 pm

My abdomen looks like the early photos of Jane. I’m on the pill, but I missed a few a while back. Problem is, I can’t remember exactly when.
But I have nausea (but not vomiting) slight constipation and, obviously, the weight gain… What do you think? Wouldn’t the pill pretty much protect me, even if I missed a couple? :/

38 Helen 03.17.10 at 6:44 pm

Hi KCM-
I’m a nurse, so I thought I’d jump in and answer this one for you. The risk of pregnancy increases dramatically the more pills in a row that you miss taking. In other words, the risk is quite low if you miss only one pill, but much higher if you miss two. Of course, it also depends on when you had sex during the month you missed your pills. The human body is pretty smart though– eggs can sit around a while waiting for sperm to show up, and sperm can wait in your system for up to FIVE days for an egg to be released….so you just never know.
My advice– treat yourself as though you are pregnant until you can take a test to be sure (usually a few days after you would have expected your period to start)
Good luck!

39 Alli 03.26.10 at 7:32 pm

This makes me feel SO MUCH BETTER about how my belly looks right now. This is my belly about 2 weeks ago (14 wks):

By all means “Jane” isn’t “big” at all –but I’ve gained about 10 pounds already, and though most of it is probably BOOB (I went from a 32A to a 34C already!) I feel like a heifer. Thank you so much for posting this! Someone said I was getting “huge” today o_O Thanks a lot!

40 krystalyn 05.10.10 at 4:18 pm

41 Pregnancy Timeline 05.26.10 at 4:50 am

When on average do you start showing?

42 Alli 05.31.10 at 7:40 pm

I started “showing” around 3 months, but I think that’s because I have been pregnant once before… They say if you’ve been pregnant before, you “show” faster. However, I did not make it past 12 weeks during the first pregnancy and by then you couldn’t tell AT ALL. I looked skinny-as-can-be!

I started showing this time because I was getting lazy and wanted to relax my belly. If I had flexed my stomach and “sucked in” a little (like I normally do!) I think I could have gotten away with it for another month. Everyone’s different… I’m 6 months now & I’ve had people call me “HUGE.” THANKS A LOT!

Here’s what I look like now at 6 months… Thanks iPhone! Your pictures are GREAT (yeah, right…)

45 Nikki 06.12.10 at 11:09 am

How lovely, i’m currently 23 weeks pregnant with my third. Didn’t get time to take week by week pics of my tummy so only took one a week before with my others. To be fair i’ll only take one with this one too. But i really enjoyed looking at your growing bump so thanks for putting them on :) xx

46 Ms.Lynn 06.22.10 at 11:41 pm
