This week, as I was looking back through photographs of my seven-month-old daughter Florence, I rediscovered my pregnancy series: photographs of my changing body throughout the course of my pregnancy. I was pleased to find that I’d recorded almost every week, from week 12 to the day I gave birth, and was quite surprised to see how big my belly was by the end!

While I initially took these pictures for my own record, I wanted to share them here to demonstrate how much pregnancy changes your body in the most incredible way.
I still struggle to believe that the bump was Florence all along; who knew that such a cute, squidgy little lady was cooking away in there?!
