On January 31, it felt like time momentarily stopped when celebrity photographer Miles Diggs (known as Diggzy) shared photos of Rihanna's pregnant belly. Monday morning suddenly got just a little bit easier to withstand as the photos of the unbuttoned bubblegum-pink Chanel jacket draped over her tummy spread across the internet. Bad Gal didn't post anything in relation to her pregnancy — in fact, we got two posts dedicated to Fenty Beauty because the mogul never sleeps — until February 2, when she shared the pregnancy photo shoot plus one new photo that's making our hearts soar.

She captioned her Instagram post, "How the gang pulled up to black history month." The first photo features the Bajan singer in a bathroom holding up her orange-and-blue jersey over her stomach. She gazes down at her growing belly with her wavy hair falling around her face and onto her stomach. Her hair was styled into a half-up, half-down look with a messy bun at the crown of her head. The very front pieces of hair are framing her face, giving this hairstyle a lived-in, just-woke-up feel. We don't get a good look at her gorgeous face except for a glimmer of highlight on her upper cheekbone.

This photo is actually not new at all, which a fan identified in the comments of her Twitter, thanks to the jersey she is wearing. She was spotted in that oversized jersey with tangerine Prada gloves, an oversized black jacket, and black strappy heels in late January as she walked through the streets of New York City.

It's only been a few days since the official announcement but fans have been gushing over the pregnancy. At the time we're writing this, her Instagram post has already received over 14.2 million likes with folks in the comments wishing her well and sharing tons of emojis. It's exciting to see the "Diamonds" singer embark on the journey of motherhood, and we're sending all the good vibes her way — plus waiting not-so-patiently for all the maternity looks to come.
