So I am sitting in bed post implant-exchange surgery and I realized I never published these maternity photos from when I was about 34 weeks pregnant with Soleil. We had just discovered that I had Cholestasis of Pregnancy and knew we would be medically induced in the following days so we headed out to the desert to get a few more maternity pics in to soak up and remember this magical time before Soleil arrived.

I loved this sheer dress and felt like a goddess.

One thing I will say if you are planning a maternity shoot is FEEL SEXY. Tousle that hair. Be delicate with your hands and feet as you move and dance around. Give the camera some sex eye haha. Wear something sheer to show off your gorgeous belly and let the sun soak through to show what a gorgeous pregnant goddess mama you truly are!

Pregnancy is so magical and amazing. And I know it's so easy to just feel so blah. Trust me, it's certainly not comfortable and hard to feel sexy when you waddle. But embrace it. Soak it up. Revel in it. And one day, you will cherish the photos you took to remember this special time.

Below are some examples of beautiful sheer dresses you could wear to your next maternity shoot. Pair them with a nude bodysuit or a cute pair of bra and panties.

Can you tell I am already itching to have another baby haha? I can't say I am excited for the pregnancy part of it all... it's hard af on your body (especially when you add in IVF treatments). But man oh man is it worth it!

So ladies, enjoy it while you can. Nine months will go by unbelievably fast in the end.
