Five stages of pregnancy you didn't know existed Part 2 | Indianapolis Newborn Photographer

Did you know there are more than the typical 3 trimesters of pregnancy?

I’m not only sharing with you what to expect in each, but also a lot of local resources you can use as you plan for your pregnancy, newborn and birth in Indianapolis.

In the previous blog post, we talked about the “secret life” of the first trimester. Check it out HERE!


Welcome to part 2 in this series, highlighting the second trimester and providing valuable tips and resources to help you through this stage of your pregnancy.


Include your kids, your pets and anything that shows your uniqueness as a couple and a family.

I am happy to help you plan for a fun announcement! We can plan a couples or family session in my studio or anywhere in the Indianapolis area. You can share your ideas, bring your ultrasound, and we will create a fun way for you to remember this special stage of celebrating the new little one joining your family!

There are so many fun ideas when planning for your nursery theme. You can choose to have a color scheme and pick out a color palette. You can choose a theme involving animals such as Noah’s ark, Safari or Teddy Bears. You could choose something more whimsical like bumblebees, butterflies or fairies. A more imaginative theme is always fun such as dinosaurs, or space exploration, or any storybook theme.

If you love sports, that can make for a fun theme for your baby’s nursery.

I am a retired elementary school teacher, so my babies’ nurseries were Paddington Bear, Raggedy Ann and Andy, Bumblebees, and Curious George!

Often, mommas choose to incorporate the nursery theme into their newborn session. I will always ask if you have a theme you would like incorporated and we will have fun planning your newborn session to include this fun element!

Check out these blog posts that highlight newborn sessions I’ve done that incorporate baby’s nursery theme!
