Did you have maternity pictures taken by a professional or have a family member or friend do them? I was going to have mine done professionally but I ended up having my sister so them for me. It was fun and it was much more of a relaxed time and the pictures turned out really well.

My maternity pictures were taken by family members...mostly my husband. I honestly didn't even think about getting them done professionally. But then again even if I had I probably wouldn't have bothered to do it as I was more focused on my pregnancies than anything else at the time anyway. LOL
Happy mylotting!

I think that's a good way to go. Certainly saves you a lot of money that way and it's some fun time with family. Unfortunately, I don't really have anyone around that could do that for me except for my grandparents and they're not very good with a camera at all. So, when I go in for maternity pictures pretty soon it'll be professional. Luckily, I know a friend who works for Olan Mills, so she'll be doing my pictures and usually they have a pretty good deal. We usually get the one pose bundle for $12, but having to choose just one pose is sometimes annoying, so we might fork over another $70 for pictures, but we won't know really until we go in and get the pictures taken. ^_^

We just started trying and I don't *think* I'm pregnant this month, but we'll see. If not this month then hopefully next month, so it'll be a little while still before we have to go in for the maternity pictures. :) Gives us a little while to think about what we want to do for them.
