I’m one who didn’t like her pose in the beginning but I’m just going to say it’s something she wants to do. If she’s proud, good for her. Who am I stop her from showing how she feels she wants to?

But I do love her dress and her whole look. And she looks cute in that color.

I’m sorry, but I find her so annoying.

I doubt the photogs are asking her to show off her belly. They probably don’t even know who she is. She’s a celebrity wanna-be.

She’s extremely obvious in her attempt to show off her bump. Look how her back is concave from sticking her belly out. “Look at me!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I’m pregnant!!!!!!!” Woo hoo. Big deal.

Annoynomous, actually, no I didn’t pose like that when I was pregnant. There isn’t one picture of me with my hand under my belly like I am trying to prevent something from spilling out of it. I was very proud to be pregnant, of course, but I think the most I did was made no attempt to hold in my belly once I started to show because that part was really exciting.

I agree, Megan.

I love how she poses. Sure, it’s one pose but she’s so so so excited about being pregnant. She loves it! And I just love how she poses. It’s so cute and so ‘first time mother’.

It’s almost like she’s TRYING to annoy us. Maybe she reads CBB and thought “I’ll show them!”

It’s especially annoying because she looks great pregnant and I want to say nice things about her, but that pose is killing me.

I agree she’s having a boy 100%

Did you guys ever think that maybe she almost always poses like that in pictures because the photogs ASK her to? It may not be her choice at all. Actually, I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if it is indeed the photogs who constantly want her to pose like that. If that is the case, then posing this way is certainly not her fault. For all we know, she may be getting as sick of posing this way as most of us are of seeing her pose that way (I say “most of us” because I, for one, do not mind the fact that she constantly poses like that).
Even if posing that way IS her decision, it is probably because she is extremely happy and excited about being pregnant and becoming a mother.
All of that said, I have a question for all of the posters on here who are either moms already or are expecting their first baby: How many times did you/do you cradle your belly just like Samantha often does in her pictures? I bet anything that, for the vast majority of you, the answer will be: Lots of times.

I wish she would stop posing like that. I’m sorry but it is annoying me. I know she’s happy she’s pregnant but what’s wrong with putting your hand on the actually belly?

Omg I have only seen two pics of this woman in my entire life and she’s standing with her hand cupped under her belly in both of them. Does she stand any other way?

It’s ok to be proud to be pregnant, but she’s REALLY obvious.
