While the pregnancy has also exposed and heightened Chyna’s underlying health issues, who explained that she has been diagnosed with asthma.

By sharing a video on Instagram, the reality star gave insight into her struggles over the past few months.
Speaking to the camera, Chyna shared, “I’d be lying if I said pregnancy has been all roses and blossoms for me. I’m still having morning sickness and I’m about half way through my pregnancy now.’
Adding that Love Island boyfriend Summer Botwe was the one that prompted her to go to the hospital and get checks done for the lung condition.
“A few weeks ago I found out I was asthmatic, shout out to Summer, because it wasn’t for you girl, I would never have even gone to the hospital and pretty much been diagnosed.
“They said my pregnancy made it worse and made me more aware of what was going on in my body. Which, I think, is a good thing, but I have to carry an inhaler with me pretty much everywhere now.”
In addition to the breathing problems and morning sickness, Chyna also has trouble sleeping.
She continued: ‘Furthermore, sleeping is a problem. I think there are a lot of things that people just don’t talk about when it comes to pregnancy. I think I’ve learned a lot, but yes, there’s more good than bad.’
Chyna and her beau Neil revealed earlier this month that she was pregnant and the parents-to-be are ready to welcome their newborn in the fall.

Neil popped the question to Chyna when they recently enjoyed a romantic getaway in Bali.
He told Hello!“I was planning to propose to Chyna before we knew she was pregnant. Then we found out and I thought, ‘Oh, this is brilliant, it all comes together.’
Chyna admitted that it took her a while to accept the proposal because she wasn’t 100 percent sure it was real.
She said, “At first I thought he was joking because we play pranks on each other all the time. I feel like I’m dreaming.’
