    While the pregnancy shows, but before the mother gives birth mwink.gif

    All situations are different. So shoot when you can. Complications, moods, schedules, etc can throw a monkey wrench in the works at anytime.

    wait for bubba snaps..
    once born wait about a month before shooting baby-their skin settles down and the eyes open more etc -you will get a better baby shot then just born-even though the bundle of joy is beautiful to parents at time of birth most babies are a little ratty until awhile after birth
