@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I put him in it right away, and he didn't start to protest until he was older and more mobile. Since LO was mostly sleeping in the early days, I would plop him in close to nap time.

@yin: hmm, Im going to try that. So far I have been using it as an awake activity. Your monthly photos of your little guys are just beautiful! Very fun stuffed animals too

I laid her down on a different blanket each month with a sticker and the same animal. Once she started rolling, it was no longer a relaxed event! So I would either be ok with having them switch positions, or start sitting up from the beginning if you want continuity.
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I used the Snuzzler to create a snug fit for my daughter in the Bjorn bouncer for awhile. She seemed to really like being snug like that.

we did the same chair, blanket/quilt as a backdrop and lucy darling stickers. I found good light to be the most important aspect and then when I edited each photo I could just lift and stamp my edits from the previous month so they all have the same color temp/feel.

I am a monthly photo drop out, lol.
I tried, I really did, but I just lost steam. I had intended to do two sets, one where my son was on a white background wearing a white onesie (I got to about 6 months on that project).
The other was to have photos with my husband and son, together, wearing their coordinated Ralph Lauren polo shirts. I got to 7 months on that one.

I just made sure to take a pic on their month-iversary (lol). There was no consistency or anything to outfits/props/location.

We did monthly photos on a sheepskin rug in a diaper. One month we were on vacation and I just did the photo on the beach in a diaper. I also did weekly photos but I really just used a picture from that week, usually of a skill she learned that week. They are really cute to compare.
