Rihanna Looks Like a Tropical Goddess as She Poses Topless for Maternity Photo Shoot

As she awaits the arrival of her second child, Rihanna is looking back on her pregnancy with her first one. On Thursday, Rihanna shared maternity photos from when she was expecting baby RZA, reflecting on her motherhood journey in the process.

She shared a series of photos to Instagram

And though the name she gave her maternity photos is a bit NSFW (click through to her Instagram post to find out), so are the photos themselves — Rihanna is topless in all of them, after all.

"In honor of my first pregnancy, embracing motherhood like a g, and the magic that this body made! Baby RZA… he in there not having a clue how nuts his mama is, or how obsessed he was bout to make me," she wrote.

The response to the photos was overwhelmingly positive

Because, of course, this is Rihanna we're talking about … and these are some seriously gorgeous photos.

"The most beautiful pregnant woman in the world," one person wrote.

"The absolute queen of us all," another commenter added.

Rihanna's son recently celebrated his first birthday

According to birth paperwork that was obtained by The Daily Mail earlier this month, not only did we find out that Rihanna and A$AP Rocky named their son RZA Athelston Mayers, but also that his birthday is May 13.

That means he turned 1 just a few days ago — no wonder his mama is feeling a bit nostalgic!

Soon, RZA will be a big brother

So far, Rihanna hasn't shared many details about her second pregnancy since she announced the big news at her Super Bowl performance in February. But we do know that the little one should be making their arrival soon. We know this future mama of two must be excited.

More stunning maternity photos, please

Now that we've seen the photos that Rihanna's been hiding from us for only a year, we can only hope that she'll be sharing her maternity shoot from her pregnancy with her second baby, too.

Fingers crossed she'll let us see them someday!
