I wouldnt subject anyone else to me naked! No one wants to see that! I wouldn't be comfortable with my MIL seeing me naked, but I think with a photographer &amp; keeping them for us as a momento I might. Maybe with my aunt, she's an artist as well &amp; does lovely nudes. I'm really self conscious about my boobs, but maybe with pregnancy that'll go out the window :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-250279 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 21:09:10 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 250279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree, in the example above yes. But other than that... no. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-250275 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 21:04:12 +0000 mrsjyw 250275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup I would! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-250200 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 20:25:15 +0000 tequiero21 250200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i voted no but who knows, right? who would have EVER thought i'd pump and breastfeed in front of my MIL. she puts one of the babies on my boobs too. full access to my nipples lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-250197 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 20:21:56 +0000 Mrs squirreld 250197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FutureMrsMcK: I think it's fantastic to have that relationship with ur MIL. it takes alot of trust &amp; respect - I would do the same thing if my MIL was an artist- I bet they will look beautiful. And you should be proud of your body!! For those who worried about their MIL seeing their breasts, it sometime can't be helped. I injured my shoulder once and she was the only person around to help me get dressed. :-/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-250177 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 20:12:27 +0000 Mrs. Pen 250177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could not imagine EVER allowing MIL to see my naked. gahhh *shudders* so no :)</p> <p>However, being pregnant I felt the best I ever had and if I were to ever be naked I definitely would have been more likely to do it while pregnant than not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-250172 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 20:05:05 +0000 laylabelle 250172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted no, but only because I don't want to see myself naked....especially right now. Body issues, I guess. But if you're confident enough for it, which you obviously are, why not? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249845 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:31:14 +0000 MrsBrewer 249845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I was in your situation, and I was close with my MIL like that, I would do that in a heart beat! How awesome!</p> <p>But right now, I don't think I would ever come across a similar situation. So no! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249830 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:21:16 +0000 Running Elley 249830@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wouldn’t…just because I’d be very self conscious. Even when I was in the best shape of my life I wouldn’t feel comfortable with it.</p> <p>The situation that you’re in sounds ideal for it though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249826 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:19:51 +0000 cvbee 249826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For a sketch, yes.<br /> For a photo, no. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249823 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:18:53 +0000 Mrsbells 249823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nude photos arent really my thing, especially not while pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249818 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:17:11 +0000 lovehoneybee 249818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MaisyMay:/@Andrea: Haha I definitely had a moment of sheer panic after I hit "send" on the email thinking "Oh my god my husband's mother is going to see my boobs!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249810 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:13:31 +0000 MsLipGloss 249810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally! Especially if I was in a good mental place with it, like it sounds like you are, and felt comfortable with the context/environment. I say go for it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249806 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:12:16 +0000 Andrea 249806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow, go you! I wouldn't do it for my MIL, no way. But I did do a few nude shots during my maternity shoot with a boudoir photographer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249803 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:11:54 +0000 DillonLion 249803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the situation you described, yes. That sounds really great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249798 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:10:07 +0000 MaisyMay 249798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Even if she were an artist, I don't know if I would be comfortable having my MIL see me nude. Hmm..... It sounds like it was great for you though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/would-you-ever-pose-nude#post-249791 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:09:05 +0000 lovehoneybee 249791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So my MIL called the other day to ask if I'd be willing to pose nude for her to sketch, and eventually paint, me this...well, *ripe* was the word she used. </p> <p>I told her had gotten my membranes stripped a few hours before, and there was a chance it could put me into labor, so she asked if DH could take some photos of me that she could use to make a sketch. DH had to work, so I ended up taking them myself with a timer and emailing them to her. </p> <p>She's an artist, and I've seen some of the nudes she's done, and they're always very tastefully executed, gorgeous, and very rarely include faces. She'd told me if I was more comfortable I could drape a sheet over anything I wouldn't want seen, but I didn't bother. </p> <p>The photos I sent aren't like, pornographic or anything; most of them are side profile (sitting or standing) in half of them either my hands/arms or hair is covering my chest, but I am bare-chested in some of them. </p> <p>I'm usually pretty modest about my body, but being pregnant, especially this pregnant, has freed something. I won't say I love being pregnant, and I definitely miss my non-pregnant body, but I love looking at the curve of my stomach and knowing my child is in there. I trust her completely, and I'm excited to see her finished product. </p> <p>Would you ever be willing to pose nude (pregnant or otherwise) for a painting (or other art-form?) </p>
