The singer posted three photos online with the first one featuring her husband, Offset, cradling her belly.

"We listened to each other, communicated, prayed and then God blessed us and our family with another little blessing," the rapper wrote in the caption.

The second picture is equally revealing and it shows Cardi B with just her torso and belly covered in white paint.

Finally, the star posted a sweet picture of herself with her two-year-old daughter, Kulture Kiari, who has her hands on her mother's stomach. The flamboyant photos come a day after Cardi B revealed that she was pregnant while performing with Offset's hip-hop group, Migos, at the BET Awards.

She stepped out onstage in a rhinestone-studded Dolce and Gabbana bodysuit that featured a sheer panel showing off her baby bump.

Cardi B isn't the first celebrity to hold fancy maternity shoots though. Keep reading to relive some of our favourite celebrity baby bump photoshoots.

1. Beyonce

This list is incomplete without Beyonce, who raised the bar for maternity shoots. From images of her sitting atop a car with her bump on full display to the time she posed upside down, almost completely naked, in a body of water to show off her bump. 

But our favourite has to be the one that has been recreated by many new mummies, where she kneeled among flowers with a sheer veil draped over her head. It's safe to say that anything Queen Bey touches turns into something iconic. 

2. Pink

Only Pink could have pulled off such a bohemian baby bump reveal.

The singer-songwriter posted a spectacular photo of her baby bump with the hands of her oldest daughter, Willow Sage around her bare stomach back in 2016 and it is still such a pure and beautiful moment to relive.

3. Serena Williams

When Serena Williams announced that she was expecting a child in 2017, the world was taken by surprise especially because the athlete had competed in and won the Australian Open when she was two months into her pregnancy. 

The star then appeared in the pages of Vanity Fair for an ethereal photoshoot featuring her baby bump on full display.  

4. Candice Swanepoel

When model Candice Swanepoel, a former Victoria's Secret Angel, was pregnant with her son, Anacã, she did a photoshoot in what appeared to be a river.

She looked completely zen and at peace, but the best part is that it was apparently her husband behind the lens.
