Pregnant Stacey Solomon shares how she's getting ready for daughter's arrival as she 'panics' husband Joe Swash

Fans are eagerly awaiting for Stacey Solomon to announce the arrival of her fifth child but for now, the TV star is very much still pregnant - and is panicking her husband in the process. The Sort Your Life Out presenter has fans are tenterhooks as her periods of social media silence sparks rumours that she's given birth.

Over the weekend Stacey, who announced she was expecting with her loyal fans at the end of December when she was eight months pregnant, told fans she had been busying herself with crafts while waiting for her little one. "From mummy with love little one… Patiently waiting for you to be here, we are all so excited to finally meet you baby girl…" she wrote.

She added: "She’s very comfy apparently, letting me know who’s boss already. Now just need to find a safe out of reach little cubby hole to put this in." The former X Factor star shared a video of herself making an adorable miniaure hot air balloon for a tiny teddy bear with blush pink beads and decorative pearls. She said in another sharing on her Instagram Stories: "Been crafting for her while we wait. We love you so much already little one."

And Stacey, 33, is still trying to keep busy before her little girl makes an appearance. Taking to her Instagram Story on Monday (February 6), Stacey could still be seen proudly sporting her baby bump as she watched her one-year-old daughter Rose be mesmerized by her own reflection in the mirror.

"Happy Monday from me, Rose, bump, and Joe and his mop peeking in," the Loose Women favourite typed alongside the video. "I got the mirror out to take bump pictures and Rose is LOVING discovering herself in it," Stacey explained with a crying laughing emoji. "I tanned and washed my hair yesterday knowing I'll be covered in placenta soon.

"Today I just want to clean everything. I just can't stop seeing dirt everywhere even though it's clean. Why???" And she had helpers as Joe and Rose were soon with a hoover and mop in hand. But Stacey did take one job from former EastEnders star Joe, who she married in July, as she joked she 'wasn't taking any chances'.

The mum-of-five-to-be could be seen getting to work on cleaning the windows in a video as she wrote: "Joe's absolutely fuming I've taken over his fave job. But apparently you can get pregnant while being pregnant so I'm not taking any chances," alongside a crying laughing emoji after she said in an interview that Joe cleaning the windows is a 'turn on' for her.

"Also, I feel like my uterus will appreciate this kind of movement," she joked. But it wasn't long before Stacey was seen laughing as she bounced up and down on a pregnancy ball. "We found a new game," she said as Rose and Rex giggled and tried to escape their mum. "Stop that," Joe could be heard saying in the background.

"Stace, don't do that! What are you doing?" he added as Stacey carried on anyway. She wrote alongside the clip. "I don't know what I find funnier, the kids' reaction or Joe's pure panic," adding a crying laughing emoji.

During Stacey's update over the weekend, she shared how the past few days had consisted of check ups and planning. And she added: "Because eventually she has to make an appearance."
