could not have been taken after September 25, 2007 - but was probably taken sometime in August or very early September. Track Palin reportedly left for boot camp on the 25th, and would not be sporting sideburns after that date. Additionally, the ripe berries on the Mountain Ash tree in the background indicate it’s around August or early Sept. The leaves turn yellow in mid-September in Alaska.
So I’m guessing the photo was taken probably sometime in August or September 2007.
Even if Trig Palin was a full term infant, he was supposedly born April 18, meaning the mother of Trig would be something like 4-8 weeks pregnant at most when this photograph was taken, less if Trig arrived prematurely. Would someone actually show at that point? I’m not an expert on pregnancies, but that seems quite early to show.
Maybe Bristol just has a bit of a muffin-top shape. Who knows. I think all the speculation about the pregnancy based on the size and shape of someone’s belly isn’t terribly convincing.
All the other evidence sure is odd though. Especially the Texas-Alaska flight, Bristol losing so much school, and the scramble to announce her "current" pregnancy.
