Er no I dont think so.

Although I do want some photos of me and baby and my partner and baby when he's only a few minutes old. I think Ill probably not be in the best state of mind to remember, but it's soemthing I don't want to forget and wont be able to relive.

But not when Im in the throws of labour, no. Im camera shy at the best of times.

Thank you all for your opinions - its a subject that I guess if you think about it quickly you automatically think this would be images of you puffing & panting for England, not looking your best and include shots of private parts which should remain private - am I Right?
I wonder if you would change you opinion if you looked at images which IMO are simply stunning and capture the moment- I cannot give a web address here - however I would be grateful if anyone has the time to google the birth photograper - this is a lady in Dallas, and this would be the style of docum. photography I would be referring to. It would be very interesting if views change upon seeing this style of photography. Many thanks Sheila

Id have had it done at both my births. I actually wanted pictures of me in labour but my hubby is a light-weight (lol) and he wouldnt have been able to stomache doing it. If it had of been on offer, i would have really looked into doing it. Ive never heard of it before. Is there a website with this on? Not that it'll matter coz im not planning on having anymore kids lol

Found the website and had a look. Not what I was expecting at all, the presentation of this kind of photography is absolutely beautiful, some of the slideshows actually brought tears to my eyes, really shows the emotional side of labour. Wouldn't personally have it done and I bet it costs a bomb but I think for some people it would be something they would consider.

I'm not pregnant, but if I was pregnant again and had a successful pregnancy I'd definitely consider it.

I'm glad that some opinions have been changed by actually looking at the images which can be captured in a very tasteful manner - thanks again for taking the time to comment on this post Regards Sheila
