Celebrity baby bumps: Who flaunted it best?

Gone are the days when pregnant women felt the need to cover up their burgeoning bellies. These days, it's all about flaunting that tummy!

And taking a few snaps (or even a hundred) of your growing belly is a beautiful way to document your baby's growth, and to always remember your pregnancy journey.

Whether on vacation, in a photo studio for a pregnancy shoot, or just taking a selfie during lunch break, pregnant women love to strike a pose, pout their lips, and let their bellies take center stage!

Celebrity moms are no different. They're just like us!

Here's some of our favorite celebrity mom belly bump photos. Who do you think flaunted theirs best?
