Love Island star Laura Anderson has revealed she's in a lot of pain with her pregnancy, in a candid Instagram post.
She said she felt like her belly button was ripping, while also having bleeding gums and sore pelvic bones - all of which could be symptoms of her pregnancy.
The 34-year-old will be welcoming her first child next month, and has been keeping fans up-to-date with her progression.
She said in her Instagram Story: "I've got so much pain in my below button. Is that normal? Like around that bit [pointing]. It feels like it's ripping. It's not funny anymore.

"Also, you know your undercarriage? There are bones on either side, and they're like really sore. I think it's attached to your pelvis.
"I don't know if that's normal. I don't know if they're like widening? It's just a lot.
"I feel like at this stage it's just a lot of pain, and I'm sat here with like 25 cushions."

The former Hollyoaks actor announced to the world that they were expecting a baby girl - reportedly without getting consent from Laura.
The Mirror understands that Laura had been hoping to keep the news private until later this year.
She wanted the gender reveal to be a special moment for them to share together, either later in her pregnancy or when the baby is born.
A source close to Laura exclusively told The Mirror: "Gary announced the gender news without getting her consent. She’s really upset by this."
Laura and Gary met on Celebs Go Dating last year and started a whirlwind relationship.
But after months of dating Gary revealed to fans that he and Laura had split up, which was announced shortly after Laura confirmed she was pregnant.
