I love the idea but im not too worried about it. I think my husband would think I were nuts to stop and worry about makeup lol. Im sure the look of love on my face will be enough. We'll see how I feel after. Ill prob be ready for that the next day.

In the pictures from my son's hospital shoot (two days old) I was in maternity yoga pants and a flannel pajama shirt that I forgot I hadn't buttoned up when the photographer walked in the door. I wasn't wearing a stitch of makeup and don't remember whether or not I'd brushed my hair. But I love those pictures. I look pretty tired but over the moon in love and blissfully happy. My tiny little boy was so new and perfect and beautiful and the last thing I was going to worry about was eyeliner or the perfect manicure. Not even on my radar.

I feel the same! With my first I was so ugly! And I look back on pics and lol just felt ugly. So with my second I tried to put dome foundation and mascara and eyeliner on and mousse in my hair. So I felt better. So with this one in definitely gonna try and look nice

I plan on getting pampered, but I'm not one to wear makeup anyway, people would look at me strangely if I was to put it on lol

Y not it's both of your day the baby will already come out fabolous so y mom can't take a brush to her hair. I most certainly am getting pampered a week before I go this has been a trying 9 months or 42 weeks. Good job mothers YOU deserve it n don't let no one tell you different.  :)
