It’s been a few days since Stacey – usually a prolific social media user – posted on Instagram.

As such, some fans – us included – have been worrying and wondering what was up.

Now the soon-to-be mum of four has revealed what she’s been up to.

And the delighted star appears to be going all out at her Pickle Cottage home, decorating the little girl’s room with a pretty pink flower wall.

However, during her time away from social media Stacey hasn’t been decorating.

In fact, she revealed earlier today (August 8) that she’s spent the weekend “checking” on her unborn tot.

Mum-to-be Stacey shares pregnancy fears

Stacey then admitted that well-meaning fans have caused her to worry throughout her pregnancy.

“Lots of people have said my bump is very small,” she revealed. “And it really is measuring at 2% instead of 20+% but the baby is exactly where she needs to be today despite my tummy size.

“Every pregnancy, every bump and every baby is different.

“And as kind as people are I think sometimes it’s important to remember when telling someone they look ‘big’ or ‘small’ or anything in between it can be so worrying for the mummy growing a human and working why they look so different to someone else.

“And can be really scary,” she admitted.

“I know people don’t mean any harm by saying: ‘You’re so petite and tiny,’ but it definitely has played on my mind a lot and made me worry I wasn’t growing properly.”
