Megan McKenna has opened up about what stage of pregnancy she is at and the cravings she has been experiencing.
The 31-year-old former The Only Way Is Essex star stunned fans this week when she revealed she is expecting her first ever child with 26-year-old footballer fiancé Oliver Burke. And ever since revealing she is set to become a first time mum, Megan has been keeping her fans and followers updated on many aspects of her pregnancy journey.
On Saturday, the reality star took to social media to give another insight into her pregnancy journey – explaining that she is craving one very specific food and also revealed how far along in her pregnancy she is. Megan shared a video of herself putting together an impressive tray of food for her breakfast.
In the video, Megan unveiled a number of interesting facts about her pregnancy – including the fact she is more than three months into her pregnancy.
She explained with a smile: “This is my breakfast tray at thirteen weeks pregnant. Let’s see if it gets any bigger.” And sharing her cooking process, she said: “Good morning. I have it… waffles, beans, with all my little toppings for breakfast… an elite breakfast.”
Footage showed her putting baked waffles onto a plate and she piled spoonfuls of baked beans on top of them. She then splashed on several dashes of worcester sauce. She added some fresh rocket, which she drenched in balsamic vinegar, grated cheese over the dish and added salt, pepper and some sour cream to boot. She gushed: “I could eat dinner for breakfast, like, every day.”
As she continued to plate up, Megan diverged into a side story about her husband to be. She said: “So, it’s Olly’s birthday on Sunday, and I’ve planned something really, really cute for him.” However she didn’t provide any more information about her plans for his big day.
Megan then shared details of her pregnancy process. She said: “I’m getting my vitamins in.” Lifting her top to show her tiny developing baby bump, the star said: “My little bump today. I love it. It feels so weird, like, it’s just so weird having it there. I’m in the shower and I’m like ‘oh my god, I’ve actually…’ It’s the weirdest thing. I’ve have, like, stretching pains. Almost like period pains, like, every day. But then I get moments where, like, I don’t and I completely forget and then I look down and I’m like ‘oh my god. There is an actual baby growing inside of me’.”
She then continued to chop her orange, pour herself some tea, and butter up some toast before adding some jam. She continued to talk to her social media audience the whole while. Anticipating a specific response from her fans, Megan then said: “Before you all say ‘Is this your craving?’ It’s not. This isn’t my craving, actually. My craving has been oranges. How funny? Obviously I’m buzzing that it’s oranges. Because I’d rather that than chocolate or anything like that.”
She shared the cooking process via her Instagram main grid along with a caption stating: “Pregnancy craving revealed.. I’m just so happy it’s healthy.” The footage provoked a range of responses from her followers – with one revealing: “Least it’s healthy I literally had chocolate for breakfast.”
This particular post attracted Megan’s attention and she replied: “I really didn’t think my craving would be healthy so I’m shocked myself.” While another fan commented: “Apparently orange cravings means it’s going to be a boy.”
