22 Kids and Counting star ‘uncomfortable all the time’ as they share candid pregnancy health battle
Chloe Radford has shared an update about feeling “very uncomfortable” as she edges towards the end of her pregnancy.
The 29-year-old 22 Kids and Counting star is set to become a mother-of-two, with her first child, two-year-old daughter Mila, born in 2022.
Like her well-known parents, the expecting mother shares important updates with the family’s large following, with the public keen to keep up with Britain’s biggest family.
In a candid post shared to her Instagram on Monday, the third of 22 Radford siblings shared a clip of her smiling and cradling her baby bump, but also revealed a hidden health battle she’s been facing.
An audio voiced by another person had been added over the video, stating: “So, I’m 34 weeks today. Only about a month left.”
Radford captioned the post: “Reached the point in pregnancy I can finally use this sound.”
Despite the cheery video, she admitted: “Feeling very uncomfortable, braxton hicks all the time, constantly being kicked in the ribs, lots of heartburn and so many aches.
“All worth it though and everyday is closer to meeting him.”
