Lily is expecting her first child, a baby girl, in May.

Last week, lifestyle vlogger, Lily Pebbles, took to Instagram to update her followers on how she’s been finding pregnancy.

At 26 weeks pregnant, Lily said she is really feeling the physical changes in her body and is conscious of the extra weight:

“I’m feeling HEAVY. Like all of a sudden, especially in the evenings so I can’t imagine what the third trimester will feel like. She’s kicking loads though which is really nice and I can really see my tummy moving which is crazy.”

The reality of parenthood is now appearing more real to the 30-year-old, who is currently preparing for when she goes into labour:

“I’ve started writing my hospital bag/post labour supplies list which, I’m not gonna lie, is making me feel a little more anxious than I’ve been feeling so far.

“I think the reality of her having to actually come out is setting in, especially as people keep saying “ooh not long now!” when I feel like it’s still ages away!”

Lily, who is expecting her first child with husband Rick has previously been very honest with her followers about her pregnancy journey. She divulged that the first few weeks of pregnancy were tough and she felt like she had “lost her personality“.

This month, Lily intends to explore birth plans and says:

“February brings some new experiences like NCT and Hypnobirthing. My approach is, why not give it a try and see if it’s for me, you never know until you try! I’m being open minded, trying to remain calm and appreciating everything that a first pregnancy brings.”

What a brilliant mindset to have!
