Of course Kristen Bell makes being pregnant look like so much fun

Mesh underwear and Dax Shepard included.

Kristen Bell may seem superhuman at times, but it's true, she pretty much is — and she has the maternity mesh underwear to prove it.

In honor of her daughter Delta's birthday, the actress went all mom on us, sharing some throwback pictures of her from just over three years ago, right before her second daughter (with actor Dax Shepard) was born.

"Three years ago today. 47lbs heavier," she wrote on Instagram.

"Getting through painful contractions with backrubs and breathing. Occasionally swinging from the IV pole to try and feel sexy and open up my hips. After 36 hours of labor I met a girl I love more than all the molecules in all the world. Happy birthday, Delta. Love, mom."

Yes, Shepard makes an appearance in there, too. The two, who have two kids, married in 2013 in a Los Angeles courthouse, where he laughed at Bell as she cried.

It doesn't get better than that, folks.
