The Newborn Photos You Must Have

The days pass at a snails pace as your belly ripens with anticipation of a little one. You’ve taken the classes, your birth plan all written and printed out. The nursery is set up, the car seat in the car, ready to go at a moments notice. And still you wait.

You wait and try to picture life with a newborn. Will you know how to care for them? Will you be able to breast feed? What will they look like? Will they be an ‘easy’ baby? All the questions swirling around your mind as your heart grows with anticipation and excitement.

The early days, those weeks you’re dropped in the deep end of the ocean filled with sharks and told to swim. The waves, much like labor pains, wash over you relentlessly. Every time you come back to the surface and take another breath before you feel swallowed whole again. These early days are often veiled in a fog. A fog of emotions and utter exhaustion.

It is also a time your heart explodes in way you never knew before. You find a strength and endurance you didn’t think was possible. You swim on even when you think you have nothing left in you. Your strength grows with each passing day. Until one day the waves don’t swallow you as much as before. You can tread water with ease.  And the fog begins to lift.

But do you remember what those fog filled days looked like?  Felt like?  Did you take pictures to remember how tiny their feet were?  Do you have a photo of what that gorgeous wrinkly little face looked like even just two weeks ago?

Babies change faster then your Facebook feed.  And in the exhaustion of the first few weeks you’re lucky to remember to eat or shower or even brush your teeth.  Don’t let those days go by without photographing them.  I created a FREE printable to help you capture those early days because I want you to always remember how amazing and strong you are.  I want you to always remember the beginning of your journey into motherhood.
