Did anyone not hate what they wore in newborn pics?

[greekypie]

I loved what I wore. It was a knit blazer, a little structured but still soft (it was merino wool) and I kept it buttoned beneath my boobs so the paunch was disguised. It was black w a gray collar, so accent was closer to my face & the black hid everything else. That was at 9 days pp.

ETA- everything else I wore (cami, pants) was black. All non maternity.

I wore jeans and a black shirt in all of them. I liked it fine.

I threw on a black sundress that I wore pre and during pg.

There's a link to a couple teaser pics one as a family on my FB.

Oh and feel free to show some newborn pics in this thread. TIA. :-)

FYI - PP I was nothing like the size I was a 20 weeks. I was so swollen because I had fluids for 24 hours in the hospital and it took 2 weeks for the swelling to go away - and then it did almost overnight. It's so hard to say what size you will be 5 to 10 days after delivery. Also, my boobs were huge - and that's saying a lot because they were huge during pregnancy too.

I was too much of a mental mess to schedule them right away, but when we finally had "infant" pictures done at 5 weeks, I wore a black top and jeans and liked the way I looked - both then and looking backing on them now.

I just wore a maternity tank (from ON) and my maternity jeans. We were only in 2 or 3 pics. This is my fav one of DS. He's smiling because he's pooping!

We kept it boring with all white

The only pics that I love of us together are closeups of my face and his. I just wore a black tank, black flyaway cardigan, and black yoga pants.

I did not hate mine. jmyersphoto.com/2011/12/02/welcome-baby-ej-newborn-portraits/

I just wore jeans and a sweater. I do however wish I had gotten my hair and makeup done!

[daisybuchannan]

I'll add that the pics were in my home and I was nursing him during the shoot (no nursing pics, but nursing in between).

I wish I had C's newborn pics on my phone. So cheesy.

Whatever, you looked great!

ha ha thanks. I think they are nice. I think it is just hard (for me anyway) to fell pretty when u are so tired and puffier than normal.

A black long sleeve shirt & black maternity pants. All the shots I was in are from the waist up.

I wasn't happy with my mat pics and DH hates getting pics made, so I took the easy way out and just did DS in his newborn (7 weeks) pics.

[zeewifeandmama]

For the first set, I wore a long black skirt and purple tank top with a cardigan.

For the second set, I wore white linen maternity wide leg pants and a blue v-neck shirt.

I don't look *amazing* but I don't cringe when I look at the pics or anything

I just wore a black shirt and jeans and was very happy.

I wore a loose nursing dress so my stomach was mostly hidden (DS was 8 days old when we had the photos done). Also my photographer took mostly photos above the waist or where DS was covering me, bless her, so you can't see much anyway.

I went very basic--white tee and jeans. Our photographer recommended simple neutrals, so that's what we did.

I liked what I wore - my skinny maternity jeans, a black camisole and a pretty pink cardigan. the cardigan wasn't loose at all (not super tight though), so I think it made me look like I had a figure again - something too loose I think would have made me still look pregnant (and I still did look relatively pregnant at that point in time, he was only 12 days old).

black shirt and jeans.

i really dislike our NB pictures though. money was tight at the time and i wish i would've done some better budgeting and paid for a better photographer. i definitely didn't get what i wanted.

I wore a black nursing top from Gap and jeans. I liked the way I looked as well as could be expected a few days postpartum.

Ah here is one. there are a few pics where you can really see my PP belly so I don't like those HA but overall I liked my basic outfit.
