Lauren Alaina said she “let my husband come up with an idea for maternity photos,” and she shared the hilarious result on Instagram on Thursday (May 29).

The “Those Kind Of Women” star dramatically posed with husband Cam Arnold for the maternity photoshoot that thousands of Instagram users hailed “freaking classic,” “iconic,” “hysterical” and the “best maternity picture’s I’ve ever seen,” and many other comments. Other country artists were among the reactions, including Carly Pearce, who said she was “dying” laughing at the photos. Jon Pardi said they were “great,” and Lady A’s Hillary Scott, who is pregnant with Baby No. 4, reacted with a laughing emoji and a red heart.

Alaina “let my husband come up with an idea for maternity photos,” she wrote in her caption. “10/10 recommend hitting up the mall. Worth every PENNEY. We literally had so much fun. 🤰”

Alaina’s sense of humor took the spotlight in the latest photos she shared with her husband, whom she married in February 2024 at the Schermerhorn Symphony Center in Nashville, Tennessee. Earlier this month, she shared stunning photos from “the maternity shoot of my dreams.” She said at that time she’s “never felt more beautiful or proud of my body than I have carrying my little girl around for the last 9 months. …I will miss these days, but I can’t wait for the days that are to come.”

Alaina is one of several country artists welcoming a baby into the family in 2025. Most recently, “Big, Big Plans” star Chris Lane — who released “Dancin' In The Moonlight” with Alaina in 2022 — announced he and his wife are expecting Baby No. 3. Others with babies on the way include Sam Hunt, Jordan Davis, Lady A’s Charles Kelley and more. See the list of pregnancy announcements here.

The longest international border in the world is the one shared by the US and Canada. As for the shortest, depends how you measure it. But there are some pretty short borders.
