Feeling huge, puffed and bloated is almost a must in pregnancy right? Every mum to be I've met so far has been conscious more or less about her looks.
That is a big reason for many to completely forbid anyone with a camera to get close. I was the same with my first child.
Pretty much every woman has had these feelings even only for a short period of time.
So why on Earth should you have maternity photo session at all?
Let me give you a few reasons before time runs out.
You may never feel like that again.
You may never look that again.
You may never see that baby belly again.
Your child would LOVE to see itself in your belly. Kids fell in awe here.
You will crave you pregnancy time and will come back to these photos and all memories with flood again.
Your partner would love your maternity photos of that time.
You may joke with him in a few years time how puffy you looked and how you walked toddling around like a duck but these will be sweet and bonding memories for the whole family. This is the time you became parents and created a human being. This is huge. You can not ever regret having pregnancy photos taken.
Even if you change like 30 kilos and are almost unrecognisable this is what life is. This is what you went through to have this baby. We change all the time, we move ahead and live and carry our memories with us. Our children look at us for example and they must see proud, loving people with no regrets.
