Hilary Swank's babies are flexing their muscles!

The actress has been over the moon since she discovered she was pregnant with twins and has often shared updates with millions of followers. In her latest post, the two-time Oscar winner shared her first glimpse of one of the babies she is expecting with her second and current husband, Philip Schneider. The twins are expected to arrive on April 16, the same birthday as her late father — Stephen Michael Swank — who died in 2021.

Since Swank announced her pregnancy on "Good Morning America" last October, the expectant mother's life has not slowed down. She recently reminded fans how quickly time had passed when she uploaded a singular slide of an ultrasound image on social media.

Even though the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" actress is expecting twins, the photo only showed one of them, which she gushed about in the caption, "Baby A flexing for the camera at their ultrasound. #TheRealMillionDollarBaby #Prizefighter."

The 48-year-old beauty's Instagram post received glowing comments from several people, including "The Afterparty" actress Vivian Wu, who exclaimed, "And you have two!!! Congratulations again and again ! Sending you lots love!!!"

"Two Oscars. Two babies! I love the symmetry!," one fan commented as another declared that Swank would "make an amazing mother." A third netizen wrote, "So exciting Hilary and Philip. Two million dollar babies ?? Can't wait to meet them."

Meanwhile, a fourth person was blown away by "baby A's biceps," and a fifth argued that "Baby B don't have to flex they're already playing with A's head by doing nothing. This is a long game they're in."

The "What They Had" star had received similar attention when she showed off her fit side in a video that showed her doing an arm workout, the Hollow Coves belting out the lyrics to their 2021 song, "Blessings." As reported by The Blast, she donned a skin-tight, long-sleeved shirt with black leggings and sports shoes, highlighting her baby bump.

She began the clip by standing in front of a piece of training equipment that she lifted with her right hand before turning to her left side. While Swank looked like a pro, she divulged that it has "been a lonnnnnnng time since #FitnessFriday," in the caption.

Fans flooded her comment section with praise for keeping up with her fitness routine and goals despite carrying twins. One fan called her a "bada** mama," and a second noted that the exercise would help "The Next Karate Kid" actress when her babies arrive.

The brunette looked calm as she stood sideways and grinned at the camera, leaving her hair down and her face free from makeup. "Oven's heatin' up, dough's beginning to rise!! ??????," she teased in the post's caption, making viewers believe her EDD was around the corner.

Even though it was not time to welcome the bundles of joy yet, a look at the comments revealed that she had a good support system waiting for her. Superstar Sharon Stone joked, "Hahaha, You are so big just in the middle ? adorable," and a fan complimented Swank for "Looking gorgeous." 

Another Instagram user expressed their joy that the Molodist International Film Festival Award winner was "beautiful and happy," while a third claimed to be "proud" of the film producer.

The shower of love came on the heels of actor Gerald Butler opening up about the time he almost killed the actress on the set of the 2007 romance drama, "P. S. I Love You." The Scottish hunk explained that the scene where his character was meant to hit himself in the face while undressing did not turn out as planned.

Not only did he lose control of the clip, but he also hit and slashed Swank across her forehead. "You could even see the teeth [of the suspender]. She had to get taken to the hospital," Gerald recalled before adding that his fear about what would happen to her brought him to tears.

Luckily, his worry about blinding her did not become a reality.
