Mom’s Candid Photos Nail the Too-Real Moments of Pregnancy

A New Jersey mom is getting real in a refreshing and funny Instagram account dedicated to documenting the hilariously weird side of being pregnant. Whether it's strange food cravings, having to pee all day long, or wondering how *exactly* a baby the size of a watermelon can fit through a woman's body, Maya Vorderstrasse's pregnancy updates are #momgoals.

Maya got pregnant when her first daughter, Zoey, was only 5 months old.

Alongside this amazing shot after Maya's delivery, she writes, "Praising our GOD in tears because just like that, our family is complete … Went into labor late at night on her due date, and after ONE push she greeted us with the sweetest cry and the most loving eyes. Welcome to the world, Hazel Marcela."
