I started taking them at 9w and am taking them weekly. They aren't super high-quality or flattering, but I like seeing how my body is changing. I don't intend to post them on FB or any other public place.
Started
TTC July 2012. Missed m/c & d&c 9/12 11w. Natural m/c 1/13 6w. Chemical pgs 3/13 & 8/13 around 4w. Currently TTA while saving
for adoption.

I don't plan on starting until week 14. I have all bloat going on. I just feel like I'm cheating if I take pictures now because I'm not really showcasing a bump.

I think I might start in a couple weeks. I plan on taking two versions, a bare belly version just for myself and a set of ones that are all taken in the same cute maternity shirt, that I can share with others or maybe make a cute photo collage with (I've seen some ladies get really creative with those, and they make a nice little keepsake I think). I will try to do them every week, but it'll probably be more like every two weeks, and it doesn't matter to me if they're in any sort of pattern anyway, all that will matter to me is seeing my belly get progressively bigger.

We probably won't do progressive belly shots. But I have done super pregnant photo shoots with my first too. I am talking like 36 or 37 weeks. The pictures are amazing and kind of sexy. (With my first, that is what DH got for Christmas)

This except we started at 6 weeks and will do every other week.

With DS I started right away, every week. I haven't started yet this time. Don't feel like showing off my bloated tummy lol. Sometimes I miss my pre-mama tummy.
We are starting tomorrow (11 weeks). Taking them once a week... black shirt and each time holding the fruit that is the same size as baby (found the idea on pinterest!)
I took an initial shot at 5 weeks, just to get a baseline. Then 8w, 10w, and I will again at 12 weeks. After that I will try to do them weekly. I'm sure I'll miss some weeks. But I love looking back on how the belly changed last time around.

Will definitely do those again.

I am. I did it with DS too.
