    Congrats to my GP Sister from another mister Bruinsbabe!!
  • Did them, love Em. Favorite pictures of DH and myself, I like them more than my wedding pictures. I had my hair and makeup done for them. We had the photographer come to our home. Can't say enough good things about them.

  • I'm going back and forth on whether to get them or not.  I like the idea of having them, but not paying for them.  I may talk to the woman who did our engagement and wedding pictures and see if we can pay for her typical "engagement" session (1 hour) but then split it between maternity and newborn pics.  Most of our families think maternity pictures are silly....so yeah.  I don't know what we'll be doing.

  • I didn't do them - we had gone to Turks and Caicos for BIL's wedding when I was 26 weeks, so I felt like I got some good pictures then while I was expecting.

    Next time around, I think I would like to have some pictures taken - we know we only want 2 so it will be the last time I'll be pregnant.

  • I'm thinking that we might get pictures taken after we find out the sex as a way to do a gender reveal. That would probably be the only reason why I would get them. We know someone who takes really cheap photos too so that's a plus.

  • I really want to do them, but don't want super cheesy ones.  And DH hates getting his pic taken. But we don't have any nice ones of ourselves since our wedding photos 2.5 years ago!  I just need to find a photographer who isn't outrageously priced.

    I have mine on my FB. I don't think they were too cheesy, maybe a couple but not all. I can PM you my name if you want to add me so you can see them.

  • We haven't and we won't. I just feel like its a lot to spend on something that I'll never use. I don't have many personal pictures in our house, so idk what I would do with them

    YGPM! DH doesn't like his picture taken either but having a kid seems to have changed that a lot!
