Sylvia wrote in the caption: ‘My last day at work = last chance for a bump comparison with @jayneazzo. How did we get here so fast? (Hint: 2 x turbo toddlers).’

Sylvia conceived her first son Oscar via IVF, but has said her second pregnancy was ‘spontaneous’.

‘We hadn’t planned to go down that path so soon, but having had not an entirely easy path the first time around you can’t be anything but thankful and grateful to have fallen pregnant this way,’ she told The Australian Women’s Weekly.

She said many people had advised her against having boys 15 months apart, but she insisted they wouldn’t have it any other way. 

‘I know it will be a lot to keep up with two turbo little boys, but for now I’m just embracing the beautiful chaos,’ Sylvia added.
