Pregnant Amy Childs reveals she’s already experiencing contractions as she asks fans for help
PREGNANT Amy Childs has called on fans for help as she hinted she’s having contractions with her twins.
The reality TV star, 32, is a mum of two and will soon add a couple more tots to her brood.
Amy has been open about her latest pregnancy journey, already appearing to confirm her due date and plans for a natural birth.
Yet despite her scans showing gestation was at 24 weeks – which means Amy and her partner Billy, should be giving birth on or around April 26 – the star has suggested she is already worried about contractions.
The TOWIE favourite took to her Instagram page to post a slide which quizzed: “Braxton hicks. When do they start?”
Braxton Hicks – regularly called practice contractions – are perfectly normal during pregnancy.
When mums are expecting they might notice their tummy becoming hard and experience period-like cramps, which are Braxton Hicks.
Yet they are completely normal and are not a sign someone is going into labour.
Amy made her exciting baby announcement in October.
The flame-haired star revealed the exciting news to OK! magazine, saying: “I’m still in shock.”
She added: “I promise you now, I didn’t want any more children. When I met Bill I thought, ‘Do you know what, I’ll have one more.’ We are so excited – it’s going to be absolutely amazing.”
Amy is already proud mum to Polly, aged five, and Ritchie, aged four, from previous relationships.
