Although not every expectant mama chooses to shell out cash for a professional maternity photo session, as with every other season of life, a pregnancy is something you need to document, even if just casually. When your babies are grown and you're thinking back on those nine brutal months your feet were swollen, these snaps will remind you that your heart was, too.
From weekly progress photos for the ambitious to easy-to-take selfies, these are the photos you NEED to take during your pregnancy to file away for later. (We promise you'll thank us then.)
