Her post came just hours after she opened up about being overdue, saying: "Fed up.com!!!!! Word of advice for mumma’s to be DON’T expect you will be early even if everyone constantly says things to u like..."
"'You have dropped!! he won’t be much longer!' 'You were 6 weeks premature so he will be early.' ‘Wow your bump is massive, he won’t go full term!’
"I found the 1st trimester very challenging due to sickness & fatigue, but I can honestly say 38-40weeks has been a lot tougher mentally & physically! It’s this weird limbo stage.
"I’ve worked through the list of eating dates, pineapple, walking,sweeps, spicy food, raspberry leaf tea, clary sage oil baths, birthing ball.
"And moreeee I won’t write as it would be a headline on the dailymail/The sun!!! But we know what I mean!!! I give up and I’m just going to relax and let nature take its course as it’s so disheartening when nothing happens!! [sic]".
This is Lucy's first baby, but Ryan Thomas is already dad to 11-year-old Scarlett with his ex Tina O'Brien.
Update: Lucy's rep has confirmed to Heart.co.uk that Lucy hasn't yet given birth, and that her post was a tongue-in-cheek joke.
