  After researching a lot on the internet and getting a lot of advice from family and friends, we made a list of essentials required after the baby’s arrival and started shopping for the baby. Since we didn’t know the gender of our baby, we thought of getting everything in a gender neutral colour. For the nursery, firstly we set up the baby's cot/crib, and thereafter bought the other accessories like baby chimes or hanging soft toys with lullaby music to help the baby relax, some cute stuffed toys and also very importantly the changing supplies etc. Furthermore, we made sure we got ample storage space built to store the baby’s essentials.

But so easy to keep expecting our children to be versions that w...

And, one of the best ways to commemorate this special life event is with a maternity photoshoot that you can look back on for years to come. We planned our pregnancy photoshoot between 29 and 30 weeks, just to make sure that I’m comfortable and well on time, as we can’t anticipate the future. After a lot of research, I finalized the photographer and my outfits for my shoot. We decided to shoot for two days, in two separate locations. On the first day of the shoot, we chose an outdoor location, the evening time and a riverside location gave us a stunning backdrop. I chose a flowy gown for this shoot with a floral tiara and my hubby went for a crisp white shirt. With the perfect timing of the “golden hour” the photographer could beautifully capture those soft golden hues during the shoot. On the second day, we chose a colorful and floral location, one of the restaurants that the photographer recommended. This time I...
