I hesitated a bit about the &#8220;revealing&#8221; nature of the picture, but after experimenting a bit with cropping and whatnot in Photoshop, I decided that my boobs really do need to be in there, for perspective&#8217;s sake.  So, without further ado, here&#8217;s what&#8217;s probably the closest thing to a cheesecake shot you&#8217;ll ever find here:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"1\" align=\"middle\" title=\"Birds-eye view\" alt=\"Birds-eye view\" src=\"http:\/\/home.tjerngren.net\/revelry\/images\/pregnantbelly13january2008.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I am eight months pregnant, exactly one month from my due date, and&#8211;as is usual for me at this stage of pregnancy&#8211;I am very ready to have it done.
