Australian fitness star and mother-of-one, Emily Skye, has shared a photo of her ‘rapidly growing’ pregnant belly after noticing how much ‘bigger’ it was than her first pregnancy.
The 24-weeks-pregnant personal trainer, 35, posted side-by-side images to Instagram, comparing her two pregnancies – her first with daughter Mia and second with her unborn son – at the same stage.
‘Just slightly bigger this pregnancy! Do you think my belly will continue to grow at this rapid rate or slow down towards the end?’ She wrote.

‘It’s amazing how pregnancies can differ so much isn’t it! I’m very grateful for my body for growing my son so well… SO VERY WELL!’
She said that she ‘can’t stop eating’ due to a ‘lack of self control’.
‘I am a completely different person. When I’m not pregnant I’m pretty good with food and can control myself… but I am completely out of control right now.’
Emily said her belly was ‘rapidly growing’ and questioned whether she’d be able to walk by the time she was full term.
‘I’m actually not joking,’ she wrote.
Emily has been keeping fans up-to-date with her pregnancy, regularly posting videos and photos to Instagram.

The mum of one’s post has since received more than 90,000 likes and hundreds of comments from women saying how inspired they are by Emily’s positive message.
‘I’ve followed you for years and you have helped me through so much! Thank you for sharing your life with the world. You are and inspiration,’ one woman said.
‘It’s so refreshing to see a fitness model actually posting the truth about pregnancy!’ another added.

She first completed a horizontal leg and arm extension exercise with Mia on her back followed by squats and finished with walking lunges while holding Mia.
‘Do three to six rounds depending on your fitness level and how you’re feeling. Take rests as needed,’ she said.
