Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.
Written in the stars! Lauren Bushnell — who is pregnant and expecting a baby boy with husband Chris Lane — took to Instagram on Thursday to let it be known that her son will be born a Gemini.
“Gemini baby coming soon!” the “Bachelor” Season 20 alum wrote alongside a photo of herself flaunting her baby bump in a figure-hugging dress. Lauren herself is an Aquarius, a fellow air sign meant to get along effortlessly with Geminis.
After sharing her bundle of joy’s zodiac affiliation, Lauren revealed that he is currently the size of a cabbage. While she is thrilled to meet her first child — who is due around “the beginning of June” — the future mom lamented that she is “officially back in the ‘can hardly keep my eyes open once 3 p.m. rolls around’ stage” in her pregnancy.
Lauren concluded her post by expressing gratitude for “comfy, stretchy $16 dresses and afternoon naps.”
The blonde beauty’s revelations come one week after she opened up about her path to conceiving during a candid Instagram Story Q&A.
In response to a fan who asked if she had a tough time getting pregnant, the expectant franchise alum replied, “Not difficult. It took us about 6-7 months of ‘trying’ and 3 months of taking ovulation tests and using [Proov Test] strips.”
Lauren — who announced her pregnancy in December — went on to say that the experience of trying for a baby with her country singer hubby was “emotional in some ways.”
“[It] only opened my heart to those who try for a lot longer and are struggling,” she added. “7 months felt long at times and had its ups and downs so I just wanna say if your journey is different than mine and you’re [trying to conceive] and struggling my heart goes out to you.”
