The last stages of pregnancy are a beautiful mix of anticipation, discomfort, wonder, and quiet reflection. Your body is doing something extraordinary, your baby is almost here, and life is about to change forever. While these weeks can feel long, they pass surprisingly fast and many parents later wish they had captured them more intentionally.
With our gentle tips and meaningful ideas in the last weeks of pregnancy, you can preserve this once-in-a-lifetime season.
1. Book a pregnancy photosession
Put a reminder in your calendar and book a pregnancy photosession. Choose a photographer whose style you can relate to and who can make you feel comfortable. Let the session be led by you. Do you want to have the beach style, forest, home? You can easily get wonderful pictures taken within one hour. In case the pregnancy photo session is over your budget, ask your friend (or partner) to reserve a specific time for you. Come with the inspiration and enjoy!
2. Eternalise your pregnant body through a statue
This is a unique way of capturing your pregnant body. During the session, your body will be 3D scanned, which will be the base for a beautiful mini statue created afterwards. This way you can remember your body in it's rawest form. It is a beautiful way to celebrate body's strength and becomes a lasting piece of art. In Europe, companies like bellysisters.dk or lebumpstudio.com offer these services with great passion.
3. Gift yourself on a solo babymoon retreat
Yes you heard right. This type of retreat is a a great way to unwind, connect with fellow mothers to be, get creative, get active and prepare for birth and motherhood. Mom'z Retreat is one of a kind. Offering retreats in stunning villas in Barcelona, Lisbon and London, being guided through prenatal movement sessions, mindful visualisations for positive birth and being pampered in nourished food are just some of the activities included in this exclusive package. It is worth it. As an alternative, get on your own babymoon together with your partner. Create a meaningful program, talk about names, about birth expectations, take pregnancy photos and let this be the time "before the baby arrived" you will remember.
4. Keep a pregnancy journal or write letters to your baby
Writing is the most powerful ways to preserve memories. Our guided Pregnancy Journal has generous space to write down week by week, how you feel, what are the baby's developmental milestones, your hopes, fears, dreams. Even a few sentences a week can become a priceless keepsake, something you (or your child) may treasure years later.
Regardless of which method you choose, try to really be present in your incredible body, as you are entering the last weeks before meeting yet another love of your life.
