Kate Ferdinand gave fans a glimpse of her current pregnancy when she took to Instagram on Monday.
The former TOWIE star, 31, shared an adorable photo of her son Cree, two, planting a kiss on her burgeoning baby bump while wearing navy pajamas.
She snuggled up on the couch with her little one before they went for a walk with their Chihuahua Ronnie.
Kate, who is currently expecting a girl with husband Rio, 44, looked stunning rocking her belly in another selfie.
In her caption, she wrote, “Let’s talk about pregnancies. I scrolled through my phone for photos from this pregnancy and these sum it up: work, chill and family time ❤️

“It’s only now that I realize that during my pregnancy with Cree I put so much pressure on myself to have everything be ‘perfect’. I was really worried about my changing and growing body and just didn’t embrace my pregnancy like this at all.
“I’ve really learned to listen to my body and found the strength to say no to things that are going to be too much. My priorities are my health, family, and work… and instead of trying to please everyone, I just say no when it feels like too much.
“Same with exercise, you all know I like working out but when my body gives me signs to slow down I just do it, I embrace the calm days whenever possible and taking the pressure off myself is perhaps one of the best things have I ever done. My little girl is already teaching me so much and I love it.
Have other moms felt different after their first pregnancy? I’ve been checking out the @peanut app to read stories from other moms and it’s made me realize I’m not alone.
“The app is a safe place to meet other moms, chat, ask questions and share advice. It’s so refreshing to be part of a community where everyone shares the realities of motherhood, not just the best things.
“If you’re trying for a baby, pregnant or a new mom, I can’t recommend @peanut enough! #peanutapp.’
Kate recently revealed the fears that prevented her from enjoying her first pregnancy.
Speaking of her Blended podcast Kate compared her two pregnancies: “When I was pregnant with Cree I was more, I didn’t want my body to get big, I was like ‘oh my god I’m getting fat’ or ‘I’m not doing this.’ ..

‘Then I suddenly felt the gratitude that I am now really becoming a human being and none of that matters.
“It’s allowed me to actually, I never thought I’d say this… just enjoy my pregnancy more.”
On Friday, Kate revealed that her son Cree had emergency surgery after he suffered a “freak accident.”
Kate said she was “a complete emotional wreck” after the two-year-old toddler broke a bone in his finger and required surgery to repair the injury.
She shared a photo of Cree’s bandaged hand from the hospital, apologized to her fans for the “radio silence,” and explained what happened.
“Sorry for the radio silence, my poor baby had a freak accident on Tuesday and ended up breaking a bone in his finger and then had to have nail bed surgery,” she wrote.
Kate continued, “I’m a complete emotional wreck mommy right now.”
The TV personality is stepmother to Rio’s three children Lorenz, 15, Tate, 13, and Tia, 11 — whose mother Rebecca sadly passed away after a battle with cancer in 2015 — and the pair have Cree together.
