Jess Redden is gearing up for the arrival of her second child with her rugby star husband Rob Kearney as she approaches her third trimester.

The pharmacist and doting mum-of-two-to-be has been keeping her followers in the loop since announcing her pregnancy last month.

‘It’s a personal choice’ Jess Redden makes the decision to stop sharing son Bobby’s face online

Jess, who also shares an adorable almost two year old, Bobby, with hubby Rob, took to social media to explain how ‘grateful’ she is that their family is expanding.

When asked on Wednesday how she was feeling and if her current pregnancy has been any different from her first by a follower, Jess candidly responded: ‘I am just so grateful to be carrying this little life.’

Jess also described how her ‘anxiety has decreased’, adding that she’s ‘finally 6 months next week’ so is ‘starting to relax and not always fear the worst’.

After sharing the news that she was expecting, the content creator opened up about her experience with pregnancy loss and touched on the anxiety surrounding her second pregnancy.

In June she wrote: ‘This pregnancy has been so different mentally. I’m definitely more anxious, even though I was so anxious with [Bobby], this time it’s even worse, maybe because you know how precious they are or having experienced early loss before this one, but having Bobby is a blessing because it keeps my mind busy!!’

Comparing her two pregnancies in her latest Q&A, she described one symptom that had a major impact on her first trimester that she didn’t have with Bobby.

Jess explained: ‘Main difference was the nausea in [trimester one] I didn’t have with Bobby and I never realised how debilitating it could be!’

With her ‘Halloween baby’ due to arrive in October, she enthused: ‘Feeling great now happy to be getting my movement in where possible and trying to savour every second with [Bobby] until he has to share me’.
