‘I’m getting a few messages about if partners are allowed in or not and I think what I understand is that each hospital has it’s own rules.

‘We are going to the Chelsea and Westminster, and for the scans Tommy just has to wait outside the maternity unit and when I get called then I can go and get him and we can go in together. 

‘I think for the birth he’ll be allowed in but I guess it depends what happens with this second wave and everything.’

She said: ‘I’m really loving the experience of being pregnant, but one thing I’m struggling to get my head around is the ever increasing size of my boobs!

‘It took me years to love and accept my body after years of being hyper sexualized and judgement starting from as young as 14, when I was a 30GG. 

‘It lead to me feeling shame, until I realised that my body was not the issue, the objectification of it was. 

‘I get so many messages from fellow big-boobed women who cover up despite it making them feel frumpy because they can’t be bothered with the looks and comments (from men and women).’

She added: ‘Now that I’m nearing the halfway point of my pregnancy, my boobs have already grown 5 sizes. 

‘I feel totally out of proportion, and I’m struggling to keep up with my ever changing bra sizes and finding ways to dress that don’t swamp my body. I’m working on finding good lingerie and swimwear to share with you though, so any recommendations let me know.’
