The 'Coronation Street' actress - who is expecting her third child with her fiancé Scott Sinclair - is now eight months gone and admitted she has "felt tired", but homeschooling during the pandemic has made things tougher.
Alongside an outdoors picture showing off her bump underneath a hoodie, she wrote on Instagram: "I turned eight months yesterday
"Felt tired today. I saw my midwife yesterday and have been told I have low iron which kind of makes sense as I just want to fall asleep now during the day but obviously I can’t with homeschooling and trying to do my best with Delilah... Baby is head down now though (sic)".
The 30-year-old star - who has kids Matilda, five, and Delilah, two, with footballer Scott - admitted she sometimes gets "overwhelmed" when she thinks of their new baby on the way.
She continued: "I hate it if I shout at Matilda because I’m trying for her to do some school work. Delilah had quiet a few tantrums.
"I felt bad that I let them watch a Disney film just to have some peace and didn’t take them to the park but I didn’t have the energy for Delilahs tantrums about wearing a coat.
"Sometimes I feel a bit overwhelmed that I’m having another in less than eight weeks but this situation that we are all in at the moment is not normal life and it will pass (sic)"
The Rosie Webster actress - who first played the cobbles character back in 2000 - made a list of goals before her new arrival, but she won't be pushing herself too hard.
She added: "I made a list of thing I wanted to do before the baby arrived, mostly about organising ect but when I put perspective on it it’s not really important. (sic)"
