And Angelina Can Bite Me

March 03, 2008

So the baby is only about four millimeters long right now.

But it's a really HUSKY four millimeters, okay?

Shut up.

Simply gorgeous. :)

Also, HOT dress.

Posted by: Spring | March 03, 2008 at 10:25 AM

Girl, same thing happened to me the second time around. I swear you could see the baby bump about 3 hours after the pee-stick confirmed its presence!

Posted by: Beth | March 03, 2008 at 10:25 AM

This is so Angelina Jolie of you in this FABULOUS dress...and 4 mm can be huge...at least I thought so my second time around. You ROCK!

Posted by: Kelly | March 03, 2008 at 10:30 AM

I think you look fabulous. I like your dress.

Posted by: Maria | March 03, 2008 at 10:36 AM

HA! I got you beat and I'm not even preggers!!!!

Posted by: CndyCream | March 03, 2008 at 10:36 AM

yeah cause you are tiny tiny to begin with... ;)

Posted by: alana | March 03, 2008 at 10:39 AM

Oh that made me LAUGH! Love the title. Girl, you ROCK the baby bump.

Posted by: Priscilla | March 03, 2008 at 10:39 AM

there is no freakin' way that is your tummy!?!?!

Posted by: Chris | March 03, 2008 at 10:40 AM

I've been told that #2 and all subsequent children show a lot earlier due to muscles being stretched once already. But it is cute, so chill!:)

Posted by: Kimberly C | March 03, 2008 at 10:40 AM

Wow.

Posted by: Irene | March 03, 2008 at 10:41 AM

Wow! Gorgeous!

Posted by: Kristin | March 03, 2008 at 10:46 AM

Bulging Baby Abs become you.

Posted by: imstell | March 03, 2008 at 10:46 AM

Dude, when did that happen? I just saw you a week ago.

You still look awesome though and I'm being nice to mask my bitterness given that you are still WAY effing smaller than I will ever be.

Posted by: Heather B. | March 03, 2008 at 10:48 AM

Oh please. It's all baby-related stuff in there, even if that "baby-related stuff" is actually some excess gas from the Fritos you had to have for the baby. It's NECESSARY STUFF.

Dude, you look awesome. And I second Alana's comment. Four millimeters is a lot when you're the size of a peanut to begin with.

Posted by: jonniker | March 03, 2008 at 10:52 AM

A beautiful baby bump that should be flaunted everyday! Congratulations!

Posted by: Amy | March 03, 2008 at 10:52 AM

baby is planning ahead :)

Posted by: lis | March 03, 2008 at 10:53 AM

Love it, work it, you might as well enjoy it!

Posted by: Kim | March 03, 2008 at 10:58 AM

HA! That was SO me with Mimiclaus. The Hell? I started out skinnier. How come I'm alread looking 4 1/2 months pregnant?

Still. It's exciting to already see it, huh?

Posted by: Bethiclaus | March 03, 2008 at 10:59 AM

@CndyCream: WORD. Amalah has nothing on me and I have no children.

Posted by: BaltimoreGal | March 03, 2008 at 11:03 AM

You look awesome! Who cares about what's her name.

Posted by: Starbuck | March 03, 2008 at 11:03 AM

Yes, the second baby bump shows up much earlier. Your body seems to know that it needs to add on a room for the new family member. You look adorable.

Posted by: Julie | March 03, 2008 at 11:05 AM

I look the same way and I thought I was going nuts because I started looking pregnant at 5 weeks with this one! Glad to know I'm not alone :-)

Posted by: LeAnne | March 03, 2008 at 11:06 AM

Wow! It's a good thing you're not an unmarried woman in the early '60s trying to hide her "shame." You'd never make it.

Forgive me, I just saw "Love With a Proper Stranger," circa 1963, starring Natalie Wood and Steve McQueen.

You look fabulous! And also, 4 months preggers.

Posted by: Suzy Q | March 03, 2008 at 11:07 AM

Hey, it's all placenta at this point.

Posted by: bethany actually | March 03, 2008 at 11:10 AM

HAWT, girl! Way to work it!

Posted by: One of the Amy's | March 03, 2008 at 11:15 AM

!!!!!!

Posted by: jive turkey | March 03, 2008 at 11:15 AM

Absolutely adorable! Same thing happened to me with baby #2!

Posted by: Em | March 03, 2008 at 11:17 AM

Work it!

I'm having the same thing happen right now but I'm 9 weeks. I guess the little guy has been hiding behind all those donuts I've been eating.

Posted by: Becca | March 03, 2008 at 11:20 AM

Still not sure why they call it a "baby bump" these days.

You look like a for real pregnant lady!!!

Posted by: ali | March 03, 2008 at 11:22 AM

Damn, girl, you're looking good!

Posted by: Jessica | March 03, 2008 at 11:23 AM

Yowzers hot mama!

Posted by: andrea | March 03, 2008 at 11:24 AM

Bump Watch '08 is underway!

And yeah, I was in maternity clothes waaaaay earlier with the 2nd pregnancy. The complete wreaking of havoc on your body starts much sooner.

Pee Ess: You look great!!!

Posted by: AmyM | March 03, 2008 at 11:29 AM

TWINS?? :)

Posted by: Petersons | March 03, 2008 at 11:32 AM

Like everyone else here, I also started showing five minutes after conception with this pregnancy. And like lots of others here, I haven't been that slim since I was a teenager. Does that mean I can hate you just a little bit?

You look awesome.

Posted by: Hannah | March 03, 2008 at 11:32 AM

Now you just need to get Jason some Boogie Nights glasses and a shaggy hairdo, and the transformation from Ja-my to Brangelina is complete.

Or not.

Posted by: Missie | March 03, 2008 at 11:34 AM

Oh thank God I'm not a alone. I've gained twice as much weight in the first trimester as I did with #1 and my ENTIRE gut--not just the lower bump--is already ballooning. EEEEkkkkkkk!

Posted by: Must be Motherhood | March 03, 2008 at 11:36 AM

wow, you look great, but what they say about showing fast with the second one sure is true!
I like that dress.

Posted by: lindsay | March 03, 2008 at 11:36 AM

Wait. Is that you? Or is that Angelina?

Either way, it's freaking adorable.

Posted by: Motherhood Uncensored | March 03, 2008 at 11:38 AM

Second babies are totally like that.

Posted by: Kyla | March 03, 2008 at 11:39 AM

Holy Moly! The tabs would so be busting your bump right now!!

Posted by: Melizzard | March 03, 2008 at 11:42 AM

Second pregnancies, baby. The body remembers, and goes there fast.
And I don't think Angelina bites anything. Ever. Her children are nourished on the air she breathes.

Posted by: Jess | March 03, 2008 at 11:46 AM

You look fantastic!!! Rockin it out with belly.

Although, I must say that I am having a bit of belly envy;) I am 13.5 weeks with my first and haven't really started to show yet!!! Maybe next week...

Posted by: Catherine | March 03, 2008 at 11:55 AM

Holy Belly Bump Batman!

Posted by: Ree | March 03, 2008 at 12:00 PM

Ok, from the small pic on bloglines, I read your title and thought you were an angelina picture, so damn. You are not getting my sympathy.

But also, 4 mm? The new guy must have a shag rug, a little lamp and a futon in there. Does he think your uterus is college?

Posted by: anne nahm | March 03, 2008 at 12:01 PM

oh noes! it's happening again! gigantor baby!

p.s. and two weeks ago you swore you weren't pregnant. i think it's the universe's way of rewarding you for your difficulty conceiving...once you actually get knocked up, watch out. the universe rewards you with the hugest babies EVER.
(also, the most adorable)

Posted by: supertiff | March 03, 2008 at 12:05 PM

Totally fab!

You look so HOT!

Posted by: Kari | March 03, 2008 at 12:16 PM

You got a belly pretty quick last time, too! You have big, healthy, babies, apprently. Nothing wrong with that!

Posted by: MMM | March 03, 2008 at 12:17 PM

I know it's been said, but seriously -- trés Angelina Jolie. You are one stylish pregnant lady, Amalah.

Posted by: Sara | March 03, 2008 at 12:20 PM

Wow! Nice dress! And nice bump. May I ask where you got said dress? I will be looking for maternity dresses in the near future as I have a wedding and rehersal dinner to attend.

Posted by: Dawn | March 03, 2008 at 12:23 PM

This happens. I swear I got up the morning after conception with the third and put on maternity clothes.

Very husky. Congratulations!

Posted by: Judy | March 03, 2008 at 12:36 PM

Awesome Bump! Love the dress!!!!

Posted by: Tam. | March 03, 2008 at 12:44 PM

Bumpity bump bump bump! I love prego bellies!

Posted by: Christina | March 03, 2008 at 12:51 PM

Dude. You know that bitch wears a girdle for the first 6 months.

Posted by: Miss Britt | March 03, 2008 at 12:54 PM

Looks like this one likes its space! Best thing is that now you are obviously pregnant so people will start being nicer to you, holding doors, smiling and stuff.

Posted by: kobri | March 03, 2008 at 01:09 PM

That's a Super early bump... even if it is the second time around...

Either way, its beautiful.

Posted by: Ella | March 03, 2008 at 01:13 PM

Oh honey - you look fabulous! I look liek that every day, and I am 19 months post-partum.

Posted by: jessica | March 03, 2008 at 01:21 PM

This totally happened to me, and it's my first. I was in maternity clothes very quickly, and NOT because I was eager to be. The bloating - oooohhh the bloating. And I was so tender tummied. I didn't want anything squishing me.

Posted by: Gillian | March 03, 2008 at 01:24 PM

When I was prego with my 1st, I didn't wear maternity clothes until 6 months. When prego with my second, I was in them at 13 weeks! I gained the same amount with each child (25 lbs) and was actually thinner at the start of my second pregnancy. You body just knows what it's doing now!!!

Posted by: Shana | March 03, 2008 at 01:27 PM

My friend Jennifer was the same way with her first baby. So much for not telling her manager or co-workers until after the first trimester!!

I can't believe how much you are showing in such a short amount of time. I am just giggling like crazy over here for you!!

I was overweight to start with both of my kids, so I didn't really start showing until almost the 6th month. I cracked myself up because I couldn't wait to "look" pregnant, but by the end of the third trimester I was sooooo over it!! Same with the "What to Expect When You're Expecting". Did not even crack it open the last two months!

So very happy for you and your family!

Posted by: Robyn | March 03, 2008 at 01:37 PM

You've gone all Audrey Hepburn there, plus belly-belly. Here comes another 10 pounder, babes.

Posted by: Wacky Mommy | March 03, 2008 at 01:38 PM

Seems baby is on a lounge chair, stretching out and relaxing and being all comfortable! Such a very cute bump you have there!

Posted by: Alicia | March 03, 2008 at 01:39 PM

Shit kids, I dunno if she was looking for sympathy, as much as sharing of experience. Making her feel bad about being naturally thin, even as a "haha! I resent you!" sucks!

Posted by: Jey | March 03, 2008 at 01:42 PM

I'm responding to the post before this one. With you as his mother, and the depths you write about / consider his needs, you will never fail him. And subsequently he will never fail you. I wish I had a tenth of your parental intuition and vibrance. You make the rest of all look like chimps.

Posted by: blogwhore | March 03, 2008 at 01:50 PM

Impressive, but extremely cute! Have fun with it!

Posted by: Dooneybug | March 03, 2008 at 01:53 PM

Nice! Another 10 lb. baby here we come, just kidding. You look great!

Posted by: Kiki | March 03, 2008 at 01:57 PM

2nd babies pop out much much much sooner than the first. I'm currently 29 weeks along with my 2nd and I feel like I've been pregnant forever b/c I started showing so much earlier. Just go ahead and embrace those maternity clothes.

Posted by: Stacie | March 03, 2008 at 02:00 PM

omg! The cuteness! *head explodes* You are looking great mama! I almost hate you for looking so amazing - almost! lol

P.S. totally sending girl vibes your way ;)

Posted by: Kris | March 03, 2008 at 02:14 PM

Let's see if we're able to fit into that size 6 Banana Republic dress at 20 weeks this time around! ;)

Posted by: Laura | March 03, 2008 at 02:18 PM

Aw... Your bump is as cute as your blog! I was spastically surfing a couple of weeks ago and found your pretty page to be very sticky and attractive.

Congratulations!

Posted by: daisybones | March 03, 2008 at 02:35 PM

so cute!

Posted by: Amy H | March 03, 2008 at 02:38 PM

Are we doing a gender poll? 'Cause I'm going to stick my neck out there and go with "girl". :)

Posted by: Making My Own Fun | March 03, 2008 at 02:47 PM

Bumpity bump bump! You are the cutest pregnant lady ever!

Posted by: Hope | March 03, 2008 at 02:58 PM

OMG that is the cutest belly

Posted by: Audra | March 03, 2008 at 03:11 PM

Hoo boy - Congratulations! I don't know what you looked like last week - but I dare say you've bypassed the awkward in-between stage. I wouldn't do it, but I suspect strangers will be touching your belly in no time!
Is the dress for a particularly special occasion?

Posted by: Thora | March 03, 2008 at 03:45 PM

Oooohhh. Is that the fabulous Target maternity dress you bought just in case (and because it was super cheap on sale?).

Love it!

Posted by: Virginia Gal | March 03, 2008 at 03:57 PM

That's bumpalicious!

Posted by: Corinne | March 03, 2008 at 04:14 PM

You look great!

Posted by: Erica | March 03, 2008 at 04:22 PM

Freaking cute. :)

As posted by Julie above: "Yes, the second baby bump shows up much earlier. Your body seems to know that it needs to add on a room for the new family member."

This is totally true. Also the reason I'm only having one baby. Ha. :)

Posted by: mel | March 03, 2008 at 04:44 PM

Haha you still look hot, Amy, no worries :-)

Posted by: Heather | March 03, 2008 at 04:46 PM

Your tummy is still smaller than mine and I am 5 years past being pregnant.

And P.S. HOT DRESS.

Posted by: Aimee Greeblemonkey | March 03, 2008 at 04:47 PM

Beautiful!!! And it is true...you show much faster the second time. I'm hoping for number 3 soon and I bet I'll look like that at 2 weeks along :)

Congrats again!

Posted by: JAB | March 03, 2008 at 04:59 PM

Holy crap, that was fast! Are you doing the "take a belly picture everyday" project?

Posted by: molly | March 03, 2008 at 05:36 PM

Ok, we won't go there because I looked 5 months pregnant the night after I conceived. Second babies always do this! They stretch out, watch TV and eat! There is more good stuff to come!

Posted by: Melodie | March 03, 2008 at 05:47 PM

I guess I'm not the only one who thought it was an Angelina pic. You look amazing girl!

Posted by: Jayme | March 03, 2008 at 05:49 PM

Finally delurking (after nearly two years) to say WOW! You, and your belly, look fab. Angelina's got nothin on you!

Posted by: Kristen | March 03, 2008 at 06:34 PM

You look fabulous! While Angelina is biting you, I'd like to invite Brad to go ahead and bite me! ;)

LOL LOL

Same thing happened here. It's a TRIP, isn't it?

Posted by: HMFT | March 03, 2008 at 07:31 PM

Me too! I'm only 5.5 weeks and already poochy. How'm I supposed to hide it for another 8 weeks or so??? I think I need a dress like that, it will help me feel better about it! Hot. Hot. Hot!

Posted by: Dinia | March 03, 2008 at 08:16 PM

I normally don't comment, but you look amazing. Jason is a lucky man. You two must be so exited about this undeniable proof that baby #2 is on her/his way:)

Posted by: ellie | March 03, 2008 at 09:08 PM

I love it! You are too cute.

Posted by: Sadie | March 03, 2008 at 09:10 PM

Angelina NEEDS to bite you, and then practice swallowing her food! Bitch is nasty skinny! And remember how big your belly got with Noah, but you stayed wee every where else. You are a tiny girl, so that baby is gonna show a lot, and fast! You look amazing, i am so excited for you!

Posted by: coffeygirlb | March 03, 2008 at 09:37 PM

Oh my goodness! How cute are you? I am so happy for you :)

Posted by: Wendy | March 03, 2008 at 10:20 PM

Well, you're no Nicole Kidman, that's for sure. But, then, you're not using a surrogate like she is. ALLEGEDLY. You look darling.

Posted by: Ginny | March 03, 2008 at 10:22 PM

Holy big belly! LOL It's adorable!!! Now you have so many extra weeks now where people will touch your belly! yay! LOL

Posted by: Dawn | March 03, 2008 at 10:23 PM

Awwwwwww! I think your baby bump is perfect! Congrats!

Posted by: Danielle-Lee | March 03, 2008 at 10:24 PM

Welcome to Number Two! Such a miracle! So friggin' obvious! Ah, new life... it's not big, it's BOLD!

Posted by: Velma | March 03, 2008 at 11:26 PM

Delurking (since the Company Cookbook post) to echo what everyone else has said. You look too effin adorable! Congratulations.

Posted by: Cari | March 03, 2008 at 11:48 PM

Ah, you're so purdy. And I don't have a baby in there and *I* am a little husky. Shutup.

Posted by: Mrs. Flinger | March 03, 2008 at 11:59 PM

Isn't it fabulous to be pregnant?!?! Mine are 2.5 yrs and 8 months and I loved every second of it. (But I'm not rolling the dice again!)

Posted by: Ellen | March 04, 2008 at 12:36 AM

Granted, by # 4 I was in maternity gear at six weeks, but, now, how can I say this delicately. What we have here is a case of bloat.

KIDDING.

It's just bloomin' marvellous, that's what it is. Bloomin' Bloody Marvellous.
