Stacey Solomon has admitted to feeling 'excited' but 'nervous' as she prepared for the eventuality that her fifth child could make an earlier appearance. The Loose Women star is just weeks away from giving birth to her third child with her husband Joe Swash.
The couple, who wed in a stunning home ceremony in July, are already parents to three-year-old son Rex and daughter Rose, who turned one in October. Stacey is also mum to sons Zachary and Leighton while Joe also has a teenage son, Harry, from a previous relationship.
Stacey, 33, only shared the wonderful news just after Christmas that she was expecting and stunned fans when she revealed that she only had a month to go until baby number five would be making their arrival into the world. After showing off her blossoming baby bump in glowing snaps, Stacey said: "Coming soon… Much sooner than we thought."

The 33-year-old went on: "When we found out we still wanted to have that first few months you usually would to adjust and get excited and enjoy it to ourselves, but that didn’t leave us with very long left. So this time next month we will be getting ready to say hello to a whole new pickle. So grateful."
She then had to clear up confusion with fans who thought she meant that she discovered she was expecting at eight months. In an Instagram Q&A, Stacey said: "I must be saying it wrong. I mean, we didn't just find out three days ago when I looked down and was like 'oh, that's not my usual evening bloat. What's going on?' But when we did find out it was past the point people would usually tell people."
Stacey has since returned to Instagram to give her fans a daily update on how she is 'sorting her life out' after promising to do something every day to help her get organised ahead of her new arrival. While her previous task saw her restock her jars of biscuits, she then decided to create her own baby caddy.
The TV star shared the process with her 5.5 million as she organised various items, including hand sanitiser and baby wipes, into different tubs which had all been labeled. As she filmed herself putting the handy kit together, Stacey wrote: "Loved every single second of doing this. I still use Rose's with her."
Upon completing the caddy, Stacey reflected on what it meant to her writing: "This honestly makes my tummy jump. So nervous and excited." It comes after the pregnant TV star appeared to hint she's having a baby boy as she appeared to refer to the baby as 'he' in her latest video.
Stacey took to her Instagram Story on Tuesday (January 3) with a fresh update on her pregnancy after heading for a scan with Joe. The former X Factor finalist and I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here winner shared how the sonographer managed to get an 'amazing' picture of their unborn child.
