Wrapped around my belly

One of my favorite Police songs is "Wrapped Around Your Finger." When you change up the lyrics just a tad, you can make the song "Baby will be wrapped around your belly," which is appropriate for 2 reasons:

First, Little B totally has me wrapped around his/her finger--- and then some. Speaking of Little B's finger---he/she now has finger and toenails, just added this week! Pretty impressive. Anyways, I'm very into this little being. I think about Little B all the time, especially when I'm trying to fall asleep at night. Sometimes I try to really concentrate to see if I can feel this tiny being move. But I'm not sure if I can yet. Occasionally, I think I do, only to realize that it was most likely my pulse and not fluttering. I promise to make a big announcement when I do have confirmed and undeniable movement from Little B. In the meantime, I just relish in the thought that there's a little baby-to-be with me at all times. Its very comforting to think about.

And then, there's the other meaning to these lyrics--the literal one: This baby appears to be wrapped around my belly! I'm not kidding-- I think I'm showing more on my sides and back than I am in my front. No joke.

So baby must be wrapped around my belly, both literally and figuratively.

this baby is going to need 30 fingers or more to have enough to have people wrapped up around his fingers.
I reserve the index finger of his rigfht hand!
