Louise 'Sprinkle Of Glitter' Pentland's *almost* 42-week bump shot
The superstar vlogger shared her overdue bump on Instagram days before giving birth...
We do like a good bump shot here at MFM HQ, and we're especially loving this one by new mum and super-famous vlogger Louise Pentland.
Louise, known as YouTuber Sprinkle Of Glitter and mum to daughter Darcy, shared her ready-to-pop bump on 9 January 2018, as she was fast-approaching her 42nd week of pregnancy.
"Taking as many bump pics as I can before bump becomes Pearl," she wrote alongside it, revealing her baby's gorgeous name ?
"I've been getting quite worked up about going over my due date. Then I had the BEST meeting with my midwife.
"I'm not at 42 weeks, I'm still in a safe, normal gestation, I just need to relax a bit!
"So, until Pearl pops, it's poncy 'oh I'm just looking out the sky light' instas and cleaning the shiz out of my house- woo!!!"
First things first, how AMAZING does Louise look here?
We're pretty envious... as we remember looking a tad more dishevelled as we awaited the arrival of our own little ones ?
Secondly, we really wanted to share this because how rare is it to see a just-about 42-week baby bump?
So many of us give birth before, on, or just a day or two after, our due dates... so it's amazing to see what else bump has in store, right?
Louise's 2nd baby did stay put until the 42nd week of pregnancy. She eventually gave birth to a healthy baby Pearl on 14 January.
(Interestingly, Louise revealed in an earlier post that now 5-year-old Darcy was born at 42 weeks too)!
"One minute you're minding your own business being 42 weeks pregnant and the next, you're delivering the most beautiful Pearl, at home, in the birthing pool with a wonderful team and so much love.
"My lovely Pearl was born yesterday morning (sorry for throwing you all off the scent, we wanted a day of shhh) and is perfect.
"Going to take some time to soak her up but will share lots of details soon. In short though - I'm so happy.
"Big loves from all of us ❤️??????♀️??❤️"
