Pregnant celebrities don't let their blossoming bumps hinder their killer style. See the mums who make maternity fashion effortlessly cool...
Yes, spotting baby bumps on the celeb circuit is just about our favourite activity.
And whether they're glammed-up for a turn on the red carpet or dressed in something far more low-key for a stroll around the shops, the stars often make stylish maternity moments.
If you're a mum-to-be and running ideas of what to wear, a flick through our gallery will provide you with lots of inspiration.
Jaime King certainly had that pregnancy glow about her when she hit the LA screening of Barely Lethal in a scarily strapless dress. At the Cannes Film Fesival, French model Noemie Lenoir stole the show in a loose-fitting canary yellow floor-sweeper.
And while carrying daughter Charlotte, Kate Middleton donned a number of winning outfits. While we love all of them, we were particularly taken with the ensemble she chose for a visit to the Stephen Lawrence Centre.
For her outing in Deptford with husband Prince William, Kate dressed her growing belly in a hot pink coat featuring black buttons. She teamed her colour jacket with a pair of plain courts.

When she was pregnant with daughter James, Blake Likely made a name for herself as a real maternity wear icon.
