Gypsy-Rose Blanchard, now 22 weeks into her pregnancy, is experiencing new sensations as her body changes. The 33-year-old, who is expecting with her partner Ken Urker, shared a video update on her YouTube channel, detailing her pregnancy journey so far.
Blanchard has started to feel her baby’s movements, particularly at night between 9:00 PM and 11:00 PM, which she describes as “magical” and an “exciting part of pregnancy.” She also noted that the baby seems to be more active when she consumes sweets.
Recently, Blanchard has encountered an unexpected symptom: numbness in her thighs. This occurs when she stands for extended periods or sleeps on one side for too long, causing a tingling and sometimes burning sensation. To alleviate this, she takes breaks and sits down when out.
The expectant mother has also developed cravings, particularly for sweets and applesauce. She has a specific preference for her applesauce, enjoying it ice cold after freezing it for 30 to 40 minutes. Blanchard mentioned that her cravings fluctuate between fruits like apples and oranges and sweets.
In a previous video posted on July 9, Blanchard announced her pregnancy and later revealed the baby’s sex. In her latest update, she expressed gratitude for a smooth pregnancy, stating that her symptoms are manageable and she feels blessed that everything is going well, with both her and the baby developing normally.
