Moore also utilized a grey face mask to reduce the chance of being exposed to COVID-19 during her stroll.
The actress’ walk came shortly after she revealed she had to ‘sadly’ alter the plans she put in place to deliver her baby, after a routine check-up revealed her platelet count had ‘dropped exponentially’.
The actress wrote in the caption for an Instagram Story, ‘Weekly platelet check at the hematologist. My platelets have dropped exponentially during pregnancy and it’s sadly altered my birth “plan”. Any other pregnant folks in the same boat?’
While the Midway actress did not reveal any further information about her platelet count, a very low count can sometimes signal various problems with pregnancies.

Meanwhile, Moore recently told Romper that she was ‘fully prepared to have surgery’ in order to have a baby, as she was diagnosed with endometriosis before becoming pregnant.
She added that ‘It was nice to have a plan and to know “OK, well this is why I haven’t been pregnant yet.”‘
After being informed she was ovulating but that she only had a small chance of conception due to her condition, the actress visited a fertility specialist for further guidance and was surprised to find out that she would be able to carry her child to term.
Moore remarked that ‘I was like, all right, whatever…And lo and behold.’

During the interview, the 47 Meters Down actress also spoke about how her husband is just as excited as she is to welcome a child into their lives.
The singer revealed that Goldsmith, 35, has been ‘gearing up for this. Like in the morning, it’s funny, I’ll reach for my phone and he’ll reach right for whatever baby book he’s reading.’
Moore also noted that she was grateful that the circumstances of the pandemic forced her husband, who is usually on tour, to stay home and assist her through her pregnancy.
‘Having this experience together makes me feel even more solid and even more excited to be a parent with him,’ she remarked.
