However fans have since some to her defence, urging her to not let the haters stop her from posting.
"Set an example, don't stop posting baby bump photos! You are a role model for our young girls. There will always be haters and the ones who hate are always jealous and probably never been pregnant," wrote one user.
"Congrats. Coming from my husband and I who have been trying for almost 3yrs this gives us hope....it can defiantly be hard some days, but please don't stop posting about this you are giving so many people hope. We know what it feels like to want this so say to heck with the haters and love and enjoy every moment," added another.
