What Happens When a Dad Poses for a Maternity Shoot

"My wife didn't want to take maternity pictures, so I hired a photographer and took her place..." Um, excuse me? That's what one daring dad-to-be posted on Reddit, linking to a goldmine of photos. It's everything you'd expect from a traditional maternity shoot, from belly cradling to profile views. But things get kinda crazy when ice cream gets involved. And of course, there's the whole issue of that bump being baby-less. Be careful what you wish for when you ask dad to get "more involved." How do you think his wife reacted?
