• Victoria Beckham

  After publicly announcing she wouldn’t be stripping off for the camera while pregnant, David Beckham took this quick snap of a very pregnant Posh, apparently without her knowing anything about it. Hmm, all looks a bit staged to us…
  
  Victoria says: ‘I'm so proud to be pregnant and I feel so blessed and so happy, I really do. I won't be taking my clothes off. I don't think anyone needs to see that, other than my husband.’

• Demi Moore

  The original and best, this is the pose that sparked a thousand copies in magazines around the world, starring everyone from Danielle Lloyd to Christina Aguilera, Britney and erm, Lisa from Steps. This iconic piccie of  mum of three Demi is still gorgeous all these years later.

  Heavily pregnant Sienna posed for a nude painting in 2012. Artist Jonathan Yeo painted Sienna shortly before the arrival of her first baby, Marlowe, as part of a series of portraits, including Nicole Kidman and model Erin O'Connor. 

• Jessica Simpson

  Jess posed for ELLE magazine shortly before giving birth to her daughter, Maxwell Drew. She showed off her enormous bump while confirming speculation she was expecting a little girl.

• Mariah Carey

  While twins Moroccan and Monroe were still tucked up in Mariah’s belly, she took the opportunity to proudly show off her expanding tummy, by painting it to make a colourful butterfly. A bit odd, but you can just imagine Mariah grinning from ear to ear when she posed for this lovely snap.

• Rachel Zoe

  Stylist to the stars, Rachel let it all hang out with some ill-fitting maternity togs when she was expecting son, Skyler. The sheer material on the top showed off her rounded tummy, and, call us old fashioned, but flashing your bra when pregnant isn’t the greatest look ever, right?

• Jessica Alba

  Here’s Jess flaunting her fabulous seven-month bump in a strapless number (but with handy sarong to keep eyes off her no-doubt expanding bottom). She was on the sand with daughter Honor, three.
  
  Jessica says: ‘I can't ever get down to the weight I was before I had Honor/ My body's just different. The jeans just sort of zip up differently, and things hang differently. It's a miracle what happens, but you definitely are different afterward.’

• Selma Blair

  Sporting a cowboy hat and colourful bikini, pregnant Selma headed to the coast for a bit of sunshine. The Hollywood actress looked stunning as she pottered along the beach with boyfriend, Jason Bleick.

• Danielle Lloyd (again)

  Re-offender Danielle showed off her curves long before that nude photoshoot. Here she is flashing the flesh on a beach in Portugal. The mum-to-be tweeted while she was on her hols saying she was having a lovely time, but felt like a whale! Well, she certainly looks good on it…

• Tori Spelling

  Now a mum of four, Tori Spelling hit the beach baring bump number three in this simple black bikini, and of course, enormous shades across the pond in Malibu.
  
  Tori says: ‘I have actually been much sicker this pregnancy than the other two. I have been nauseous for three months straight. It's starting to get better now, thank goodness. And, I'm showing way more too.'

• Gisele

  Supermodel Gisele hit the beach eight months into her second pregnancy at the end of 2012. She was hanging out in an animal print bikini in Miami without a swollen ankle, sweaty brow or under-eye bag in sight.

• Danielle Lloyd

  Now a mum for the second time, Danielle bared all just days before giving birth in this naked photoshoot for Closer magazine, wearing just earrings and a sparkler on her finger.
  
  Danielle says: ‘I couldn't wait to recreate Demi Moore's naked pregnancy pose. It makes me feel so sexy! I don't think your baby bump should be hidden under baggy clothes – it's beautiful and I'm proud of it!’

• Jenny Frost

  Jenny posed for Closer magazine as she neared her due date with non-identical twin girls. Ex-Atomic Kitten star Jen showed off her bumper belly, and told the magazine she was enjoying her new shape, saying: "Being pregnant is a time when some women can feel insecure, but Vinnie has kept me feeling great about myself. I've got a nice big belly, but I've not put on too much weight elsewhere apart from my bum, which I quite like."

• Nell McAndrew

  TV personality Nell posed nude for Now magazine when she was seven months pregnant. She said she couldn't understand people who were against pregnant women showing off their bodies, telling the mag: "Unfortunately there are still some really old-fashioned views about pregnancy out there. But although I was pretty nervous stripping off, I soon felt empowered - pregnant bodies are amazing and I'm incredibly proud of these pictures."
