Mariah Carey, who recently posed nude to show off her baby bump on the cover of Life & Style magazine, has taken a new set of intimate photos to commemorate her pregnancy. 

The pictures feature both Carey and husband Cannon, who are again pictured nude, showcasing her ever-growing belly as she nears the end of her 9 months of carrying twins.

Nick Cannon recently announced to the media that her due date is supposed to be May 14, which is edging closer, and despite the recent labour false alarm she is in great health and positively glows in these new candids. 

In a posting on her official website, Carey has asked fans to choose the babies' first outfits out of gifts the couple received at the baby shower. Watch the brilliant moment when Ellen DeGeneres realised Carey was pregnant during an interview, here:
