Heavily pregnant cricket WAG Rachel Khawaja shows off her baby bump in a bodysuit at 39 weeks

Heavily pregnant cricket WAG Rachel Khawaja is counting down the days until she and her husband Usman, 33, welcome their first child together.

And on Friday, the 24-year-old shared a photo of herself dressed in a black bodysuit while showing off her baby bump.

Behind the radiant mother-to-be, who is 39 weeks along, was the baby’s neutrally decorated room, complete with a cot and a mobile hanging above, as well as a rocking horse.

The room also featured a bookcase filled with picture books, a change table and pram – all ready for the arrival of the baby.

Rachel’s baby bump photo comes after she recently revealed to Daily Mail Australia that she and her husband will be giving their baby an Islamic name. 

‘We haven’t really landed on baby names yet, we have just narrowed it down to a few different boy and girl names and we will decide once baby has arrived,’ she explained.

‘We will definitely be picking Islamic names which has been a fun process for me, researching and learning the meaning of different names.’

Rachel said that she and Usman are excited to start the next chapter of their lives together as parents. 

‘We are both very excited about becoming parents, this is something we have wanted for quite a while now.’

‘I can’t wait to watch Uzzy become a dad. He is very loving and caring and I know he will be an incredible dad.’

Rachel and Usman announced they were expecting back in February, when she shared a photo of her sonogram to Instagram.

‘Uzzy and I are so excited to share the news that we are inshallah [God willing] expecting baby Khawajy in July 2020,’ she told her followers at the time.

She added: ‘Feeling so very blessed at the moment and can’t wait for this next chapter in our lives.’ 

The pair married in a stunning ceremony at Maleny Manor on the Sunshine Coast in April 2018. Rachel, who was a Catholic, converted to Islam shortly before the wedding. 

Looking back at their fairy tale romance, Rachel sweetly said that it ‘feels like just yesterday that we met.’

‘I feel so blessed to have met Uzzy and I can’t imagine my life without him,’ she said.

‘I am so excited to experience parenthood with him, I think he will be an amazing dad.’

She finished: ‘He always knows how to make me laugh and he is so calm, collected and caring so I think he will be amazing.’
