The Growing Bump - 5 months  by shadinah

I have always envied my husband's metabolism.  He's been skinny as a rail regardless of what junk he eats.  However, age is starting to catch up with him, and we noticed he was getting a bit of a belly back in January.  In fact, shortly after we announced the pregnancy, his mom went over, rubbed his stomach, and asked me, "Are you sure you're the one carrying the baby?"

Our kids caught on to that, and often will run over, pat his midriff, and announce, "Daddy's going to have a baby!" 

My husband is not the least bit ashamed of it - in fact, one day at church, a few of the expectant moms were chatting and he walked over, caressing his girth to mimick them.  One laughed and told me, "He's showing more than you are!"

At least my growing bump will disappear in four months.
