Expecting mom Jill MacLean maintains a fit body even during pregnancy by pole dancing. Having a big baby bump did not stop her from taking the pole and doing what she loves most.
Stuff said the 36-year-old Miss Pole Dance Australia winner has continued pole dancing even though she is just a few weeks from giving birth. Though she had to do away with other exercises, MacLean said she remained attached to the pole.
"As much as I have enjoyed this journey, preparing for motherhood, watching my baby belly grow, I have been CRAVING and LOVING that feeling of putting on my heels, a sexy song and pole dancing just to feel sexy again," she said in a blog post. Photos on her blog showed how she continued to pole dance even though her belly was already growing.

"I'm so glad I didn't hang up the heels completely during my pregnancy. I'm not really 'pole dancing' that much (definitely no tricks or inversions)," she added. "But I have been taking flexy pregnancy pics nearly every month in my pole gear as it is such a significant time in my life and what a better way to document it - in the splits or on the pole!"
On her Instagram account, MacLean also shared some photos of her splits and tricks on the pole while she was pregnant. She also explained that she is doing the activity because she wants to feel sexy even with the additional weight on her body.
"If anyone knows me knows that I don't take life too seriously and always love a good laugh (but) I take my pregnancy VERY seriously and would never put on a pair of 7" or 8" heels if I wasn't completely comfortable and confident in them," she added. "To be honest I am more clumsy at home barefoot than I am in a studio with sky-high stilettos on."
