Melanie Chisholm Bumps It Up

Samir Hussein/WENN

Check out that belly! Melanie Chisholm — who’s quickly approaching her February due date — shows off her progress at “A Celebration of the Bee Gees” at Battersea Evolution in London on Friday. The former Spice Girl performed — after receiving tummy rubs for luck! — at the event.

The baby, a delivery surprise, is the first for Mel, 35, and her partner, property developer Thomas Starr.

Melanie wears Isabella Oliver’s Satin Bow Dress in Black ($148).

This is one pregnancy that just seems to be in fast forward.

I can’t believe she’s so close to delivering.

She looks great ! High belly, I’m guessing GIRL.

- Caroline on January 13th, 2009

wow, she looks exactly like me before I was about to give birth… HUGE belly! I had a boy, I wonder what it will be for her… but i’m guessing a boy too

- Ingrid on January 13th, 2009

She looks absolutely beautiful, beaming and glowing!
I bet it’s a healthy lovely girl!

Very cute photo of Mel! If Mel gets a Spice girl , the Spice mommy’s have 4 boys and 4 girls! Phoenix Chi, Angel Iris, Brooklyn Joseph, Romeo James, Cruz David, Bluebell Madonna & Beau Lee and ?? but if it’s a boy it will fit in the family just as well…

- Sanne on January 13th, 2009

Sanne, I don’t know if Mel has much contact with the other Spice mummy’s, she seems to be the one who is more independant from the group. I think it’s a boy, but it’s just a guess lol.

- phoebe on January 13th, 2009

I think it’s a boy, but I’m wrong about 85% of the time…so I’m going to go with GIRL! (Against my instincts!!!)

- Lis on January 13th, 2009

I think she looks super. All belly! She was my fav. Spice Girl growing up so I am super excited we’re both due with delivery surprises at the same time!!!

- MZ on January 13th, 2009

Phoebe, I know but it’s still some sort of a family I guess… It’s a fact they’ll have eight kids between them in February. Good luck and lots of fun Thomas & Melanie

- Sanne on January 13th, 2009

she looks gorgeous with that bump
good luck to melanie and tom and the baby of course

- Katie on January 13th, 2009

she looks beautiful!! i think its baby boy!

- Blackrose on January 13th, 2009

WOW! She just looks absolutely stunning. I can’t believe she’s due next month! This pregnancy seems to have flown by. And I’m not making a prediction based on her belly because I’m ALWAYS wrong! My gut says a baby boy. We’ll see.

- stephanymarie on January 13th, 2009

She looks fantastic, has that glow about her and everything! I just can’t get over how that belly seemed to come out of nowhere! One day she’s barely showing and then—BAM!–there it is! That baby must want the world to know that he/she is coming and don’t you forget it…lmao.

- FC on January 13th, 2009

I think it’s a boy, but she looks fantastic.

- Sarah on January 13th, 2009

Did she ever get married? I remember seeing her on a TV show over here where she mentioned she was thinking about it. It was a bit of a shock announcement for most this side of the pond.

- Ellen on January 13th, 2009

No Ellen, she hasn’t gotten married and has recently said that doesn’t have any plans to do so at the moment, but that they will get married one day.

- Eliza on January 13th, 2009

She’s looks glowing. She was my favourite spice girl when I was a kid. I thought there was no one cooler than her. I reckon it’s a boy but want it to be a girl.

- Emily on January 13th, 2009

Mel C was my favorite SPICE GIRL, along with Mel B, and I’m so happy for her! I know she’ll be a totally WICKED mother, and I can’t wait to see a picture of this little one! I honestly don’t think she’ll make it to next month! Good luck Mel and Thomas; I’m thrilled to bits for both of you!!!
