I generally recommend that moms-to-be arrange to have their session take place during weeks 32-36 of pregnancy. This timeframe allows you to be significantly pregnant with gorgeous curves and that pregnancy "glow", but not so far advanced in your pregnancy that clothing changes and positioning would be difficult to achieve during our session.
Moms-to-be typically aim for several different clothing options. I recommend three clothing options so that there is enough variety and a lot of changing into and out of different styles. As pregnancy progresses, it becomes increasingly difficult to achieve this. Some of the positions that moms-to-be would like to see in their portraits become difficult to attain during the later stages of pregnancy.
It is best to schedule an appointment during the early stages of pregnancy so that the session can be booked well in advance. Because sessions are typically booked a couple of months in advance, it can be very difficult and sometimes impossible to accommodate a mom-to-be who is in the later stages of pregnancy and needs images captured immediately.
I recommend moms-to-be to schedule from week 26 for your session arrangements.
