to be sad I've taken almost zero photos since I've been pregnant?

I'm almost 8 months pregnant and have had a tough pregnancy. Hyperemesis, high BP, fatigue, anomalies in scan, lots of worry, lots of stress.

Baby is nearly here and I'm starting to actually enjoy the last bit of pregnancy. I've realised however that I have taken almost no photos whilst I've been pregnant.

None of me and DP. Hardly any of me with a bump. I'm not a massive selfie fan and don't take endless photos (not on social media) but I would've liked to have taken some.

Did anyone else not take any photos? Am I being silly wishing I had taken some? I look like a whale now and am past that lovely 6 month mark.

AIBU to be upset about a few photos? Feeling a bit sad about it...

I've been pregnant twice and have 1 solitary photo, And that was taken by the police (I was in a car crash at 26 weeks) it's not my thing and
My sons have never asked to see one.
I do however have 1000s of them :)
Could you maybe book in for a pre birth photo shoot now if it bothers you. I know one of my sil s has one done at 32 weeks and the pics were lovely.

I have 3 dc, and have exactly 1 photo, which is when I was 8 months with dd2 (no3). And I don't even look pg in it, I'm on the beach in dearly October, muffled right up!

Photos aren't the be all and end all. All 3 of my dcs pregnancies were vile, with sickness past 12 weeks, water retention and in the last 2, ongoing kidney stones. I hated being pg.
