The Pro Dancer Opens Up About New Struggles In Pregnancy Update
Murgatroyd has been candid about the not-so-good days of her pregnancy. The Blast noted that she uploaded a clip on her Instagram story, where she elaborated on certain developments regarding her pregnancy.
In the first clip, the 36-year-old, who appears tired, is seen wearing a gray cotton shirt as she lies on a couch, her hair spread out. She began the video by explaining how she took her son, Shai, to school and helped a little in his classroom.
Then, the star said she rested on the couch when she got home and "literally hasn't gotten up." She mentioned that she would have to prioritize her body rest by ticking some things from her schedule.
The ballroom dancer talked about the problems with her pregnancy, saying: "Tired, Exhausted, this week, I feel like I doubled in size. I feel like the baby is growing too much." In the following video, the expectant mother said, "My body just wants to sleep."
She explained a moment when her body persuaded her to take a twenty-five-minute rest when she only intended a five-minute rest. In her words, "I feel I have to set my alarm for 6 to then snooze till 6:30, and then I'm maybe……I can wait up with a bit more vigor."
