Skeptical about taking progress pictures..

Sh

Shay • Single mama to a baby girl 💜

I’m 10+3, and haven’t started taking progress pictures yet.. I’m almost skeptical that if I start, something is going to happen.. I know if everything ends up being okay, if going to regret not taking progress pics. But at the same time, if I take them and then find out everything isn’t okay, the pictures are going to make me super upset... we heard a heart beat at 8 weeks. But I’m just scared of something happening..

I know how you feel but embrace the fact your body is growing a tiny human 🤰👶

I haven't either. 9+ weeks, not a single pic. I won't be seen until 12+ weeks, so no pics until I see an actual baby.

There’s a 98% chance of survival after seeing a heartbeat at 8 weeks! Enjoy your pregnancy! I was so worried that when we had a scan today, 3 weeks after originally seeing a heart beat that there wasn’t gonna be a baby there anymore, low and behold baby still had a strong heartbeat & was even wriggling about so I was worried for nothing! Take them progress pictures, they’ll be super cute! Xx

I took some with my last pregnancy and we ended up terminating at 12 weeks due to medical problems with the baby. I still don’t know how I feel about seeing the pictures I took. I think I’m kinda glad I have the pics. But I haven’t done any with this pregnancy yet and I’ll be 13 weeks tomorrow.

I lost my son last year at 19 weeks. I really regret not having any pictures from that pregnancy. I still have his ultrasounds but really wish I had some bump pictures. Just my opinion. Do what you feel is best momma. I’ve already started taking pictures.

I'm the same way. I haven't really been taking them either. I'm not really into it anyways but I had a MMC last time. I've put up a wall for this pregnancy sadly.

I know exactly how you feel. I suffered a mmc at 11wks in jan and im currently 11wks now. And have been sceptical of signing up to pregnancy apps, claiming pregnancy freebies etc. But then thought to my self regardless of me buying etc isnt going to have a effect etc. X
