‘So I’ll have a 13-month and a newborn, which was very daunting at first. I found out a week after Buddy went into the hub, which was all just a lot to deal with at once, but yeah, very blessed.’

‘It was very hard to conceive the first time with Tullulah, and for this (pregnancy) to be such an unplanned surprise is a blessing,’ she said

‘I had the moment where, that I wish for with Tullulah, where you pee on a stick and it’s such a surprise and it’s very exciting.

So I got that moment where I feel like I missed out on with Tullulah just because of all the challenges,’ she added, hinting at fertility issues in the past.
