Whether you're doing a formal shoot or having a friend snap some pics, when do you plan or want to do it?

For reference I'll add a weeks-to-months converter in the comments.

Re: Maternity Photos: What month?

  • DAMN! I hit enter before I put in the 9th month option and now it won't let me add that. Sorry.

    Here's the chart:

  • Think I will wait til month 8 since I'm not showing all that much yet. This way I will have a nice round belly for the pics :D

  • I'm not planning on getting maternity photos, but I think 7 months is perfect. Not too big, but just big enough and cute!

  • I don't think I will do them, but I was thinking the end of 7th month and beginning of 8th. I want to look pregnant and not just chubby, but I don't want to be completely uncomfortable.

  • I had mine done at 32 weeks with DS and wish I would have waited a few more weeks. I'm tall and have a long torso, so there were only a small handful of poses I could do that didn't hide my bump. I'll most likely wait til around 35-37 weeks this time.
  • 6th month probably for me only because I don't know what to expect with twins and I'm already getting big (AND SWOLLEN WTF) right now as it is! I like the converter graph!

  • I tell my clients between 32-36 weeks depending on if they're showing enough, know they go into labor early, or have other special circumstances... but usually those are the "golden weeks" for maternity photos. Typically, you'll have a nice round belly, but won't be too miserable walking around! :)

  • Probably late 7 months, early 8 months.
