Dare to Bare

"This pregnancy has been a special one. To experience this with my sister during a time of uncertainty and turmoil has been a blessing," Brie wrote on Instagram, sharing a series of stunning nude pregnancy photos taken by photographer Cole Cameron. "As Twins I kept wondering if our bodies were going to change the same or if we'd be different. It's crazy how identical our pregnancies have become...from cravings to symptoms. We are coming to the end of our pregnancy and this will be one I'll remember forever. Can't wait to meet her little boy and I can't wait to see what I'll be having. This pregnancy started as a surprise and I'm happy to end it as one," she added, noting in a hashtag that she was 37 weeks at the time.
