You ladies are the best! Thanks for the hilarious suggestions and the words of encouragement. The logical side of my brain says I`ll want pics later, and to take at least one, but the hormonal side says `no way fatty!`... I`ll probably take karenbq`s advice and develop them when I`ve lost the weight and am not so self conscious. Thanks to all!

I wish I had more pics of me when pregnant because it is a time in my life I`ll never get back. So what if you gained weight, you`re suppose to. You`ll loose it later and then hopefully laugh about it in twenty years. Your weight doesn`t define you as a person. Who you are does- that is what you should have your esteem in, not your weight. Have the pic done, it doesn`t have to be on display. But the memory is nice.

During my first pregnancy, I refused all pictures. Now I wished I had something to remember that pregnancy by other than stretch marks. (and of course my beaustiful Daisy)

take pictures on a disposable camera and put it on a shelf. Develop them after you deliver and then decide if you want to share.

i can not find a picture of me preg with my 2nd. i am not happy to be so large but i love that i am preg with one of my precious children. i also like to do scrap books so it will go nice it that. i say yes or at least take one and hide it for yourself. you can never get these moments back and you don`t want to look back and say i should have.

I think I know how you feel, I`m 38 weeks and I`ve also gained about 40 lbs which seems huge considering my prepregnancy size and shape but even though it might be hard to get used to and it may be difficult to see the attractiveness of your condition; I think its a good idea to get at least one picture while your preggo.

its nice to have a reminder... i say just give into it... you may be grateful you did years from now... im sure your baby would love to see one when he/shes older. i wish my mother had taken one of herself carrying me... by the way... i gained about 70 lbs in all and i took a pic every week!

I felt like that with my first pregnancy... and after she was born I only had 1 pic from about 20 weeks and only those taken at my baby shower. I wished I had more! With my second pregnancy I took one at least every 2 weeks to remember it. I say take a pic

If you have a picture of earlier on, you could send that. But I wouldn`t worry about it, though, I`m sure you look beautiful!

You shouldn`t think anything of it! Send her a picture, and tell her it`s of you and her grandbaby! :)

I gained 58 with my first and I was PROUD of how HUGE I was!! I was a size 10 when I got pregnant ~ I grew a baby, a liveing person was inside of me and the bigger the better for all to see :) Take a photo and be proud to show off your baby belly :)

I`m sorry you feel this way hun. 40lbs really isn`t bad. But maybe you can tell her how you feel and she will understand? I felt horrible during my PG also, but now that I look back at pics I realize that I looked pretty good!

Do what ever you feel like doing. Really 40 lbs is not that much. I think pregnant women are the most beautiful things.

take one, photoshop the hell out of it until you look like Brooke Burke pregnant...and THEN send her one. hahahaha. Otherwise, don`t give in to the pressure.

I felt horrible about myself with my first pregnancy and absolutely hated pictures taken, I have a total of 2 whole pictures and now I regret it sooooooo bad! I think you should take a few shots just for your own keepsake, just incase...
