I'm not going to lie, in the beginning, I had no desire to get maternity photos done. Until I bit the bullet and saw the final product.

I'm now happily in my third trimester! Whoohoo! Baby Girl is on her way and will be here sooner than my husband and I can even imagine.

You have been here with me through every step of the way and I am forever grateful for your kind words and encouragement.

When I started the blog series From a First Time Mom, I did it not for you, but for myself. I want to remember every aspect of my pregnancy and this is a great way for me to do that.

Each week I record a video at my desk talking about what is new in my pregnancy. From finding out baby is a girl, when I swallowed my tooth and how hard it is to pick a name, you have been here with your words of encouragement and advice. All of which I appreciate.

This week, it's my turn as a newbie to this motherhood thing, to give YOU, mommy-to-be, a bit of advice.

GET MATERNITY PHOTOS TAKEN!

I had zero desire to get maternity photos taken. After all I'm a giant, I feel so uncomfortable in my own skin and the only maternity photos I have ever seen are the famous naked Demi Moore one the ones people make internet memes out of.

I had an opportunity to get maternity photos done by a friend of mine, Kristina Ryon. I boldly decided to try the one thing I never thought I would ever do and I'm so glad that I did.

Here's why:

I'm telling ya... just do it! You will NOT regret it at all!
