It really is just a case of counting down the days now, and things are beginning to get very exciting for pregnant actress Helen Flanagan.
Just days after showing off a picture of her “9 month bump”, she has marked a major milestone with a stunning snap.
The 24-year-old, who is expecting her first child with long-term partner Scott Sinclair, took to Instagram to mark 39 weeks of pregnancy.
Posting a picture of herself looking incredible in a pink bikini, her bump proudly on show, the former Coronation Street star wrote: “39 weeks pregnant today. Love my bikini for chilling in the garden today.”
One glance at her Instagram page is enough to show just how excited Helen is over the impending arrival of her little one. As well as sharing a rather hilarious picture of her dog Sumo getting to grips with her birthing ball, she has been posting some sweet reflections on motherhood along with her bump snaps.
The star recently celebrated impending motherhood with a beautiful bee-themed baby shower, complete tiny baby vest decorations, sunflowers and honey pots.
No doubt there will be a big announcement in the coming week or so; we’ll keep you updated.
