Maternity Pictures<3

[MommyToBe4214]

I'll be 25 weeks pregnant tomorrow with my second child.

I took week to week pictures of myself/belly while pregnant with my son but as far as professional maternity pictures, I didn't get them done. Oh boy I regret it!): Some people were telling me that they were $400.00 but after I had my son, I found out they're not even half of that. I'm debating if I should get them done with this baby since I didn't with my first. I guess I'd feel bad because I did them with one pregnancy and not the other. You know? I was also thinking that if I did decide to get them done that I would include him in them as well. What do you mommies think? Have any of you went through this?

I had mines done at the mall for $80 they came out beautifully although now I have to get extra copies they save them for 6months so no rush and yea u should get them done if u want

I didn't do it with my first but we did a family one with this one (just with a friend who wanted some practice and to build her portfolio). It is really nice getting some shots of your child hugging or kissing the belly.

I dont know if this helps but to save money i had my sister take pictures because she has a nice camera and shes free lol so we went to a few parks and i changed into a few outfits and people think they are professional lol she also looked up maternity picture ideas so we could make them a little more professional lol and i think you shouldnt feel guilty about it enjoy pregnancy how you can even if you didnt get to with your first.... I plan on getting my kids pictures taking once my son is here that way i can atleast have pics of both of them.... And i think thats more important making them both feel loved but i would definitely get some maternity pics done because you dont always look like that and they are cute lol
