She previously revealed some of her unusual food cravings during her first trimester, including a plate of sliced ​​lemons, waffles and caper cake.

“So far I’ve definitely mixed up sour and salty over sweet, which is honestly pretty standard for me, even though I’m not pregnant,” the former Labor staffer turned reality star shared in April.

‘That first one – literally just sliced ​​lemon with salt (sorry to my dentist Dr Luke) – is usually on my rotation, but I swear I could eat one a day at the moment and I’m holding myself back.

‘Photo two is my beautiful selection at the Brekky buffet in the south a few weeks ago, waffles with capers. Heaven for me now.’

She described drinking full cups of milk as her ‘wildest’ craving yet, and admitted to secretly indulging in the booze at work.

“I had to sneak around at work pouring milk into mugs, trying to disguise it as a 3pm coffee so my coworkers would still want to work with me,” she mused.

Alisha elaborated on the intensity of her cravings in a separate Instagram post, writing, “Additionally, I was completely unprepared for how fixated I would become with certain foods.”

“When I get hungry, I can’t continue with my day until I’ve satisfied the craving. Case in point: Birria tacos. “I saw a video of them and couldn’t do anything else until they were in my mouth,” she complained.

Alisa and Glenn announced they were expecting their first child together in April by sharing a sweet photo of them holding their ultrasound scans.

‘I’ve been keeping a little secret. Baby Smith arrives in September,” the caption read, before it was later revealed that she was due on September 27.

She also gave candid insight into her and Glenn’s fertility journey as she opened up about the difficult process.

“We tried for five months and we’re grateful it happened. The months ticking by are tough,” she began.

Alisha and Glenn famously met on Bachelor In Paradise in 2020 and fell in love, before tying the knot in Western Australia in April 2023.

‘Before I tried to get pregnant, I had no insight into how black and white the process can feel. Your period comes and so you regroup for another month.”

She talked about some of the challenges she and Glenn faced when trying to conceive.

‘I was deep in Reddit threads and using multiple apps to track my cycle. “I learned so much, I thought Glenn could sneeze and I would be pregnant, but that was absolutely not the case,” she said.

After being portrayed as a “villain” on The Bachelor, Alisha redeemed herself with glowing performances on the spinoff show Bachelor in Paradise in 2019 and 2020.
