‘About as happy as I look. My nausea has come back with full force the past few days. As well as other symptoms, like rage , and insomnia, and stomach aches and I’m ready to give birth please!’ she wrote alongside one photo in which she displayed her bump. 

Martha also posed in her underwear, and revealed she was struggling to find pairs that fit, prompting a shopping trip. 

‘My mission today was to go find some new underwear for my new bod’ she wrote in her caption.

The influencer, who reached her third trimester last month, recently admitted her pregnancy journey had been both ‘exciting and terrifying’. 

‘I’m well and truly getting so much bigger and I can feel the stretch,’ she said of her baby bump.

Martha’s pregnancy journey hasn’t been easy for the couple.

In a piece for Body & Soul, he said that looking after Martha had caused him to ditch healthy habits, lose muscle and gain weight.

‘Not to say we aren’t eternally grateful to have been able to become pregnant, but this experience has almost destroyed us, individually,’ he wrote, before explaining that Martha’s health rapidly declined after falling pregnant earlier this year.

Michael said at first he thought her symptoms were normal, but as the weeks went on her discomfort became ‘extreme’.

 ‘She was vomiting, refused to eat, couldn’t tolerate drinking water, was nauseous 24 hours a day and unable to get out of bed,’ he said

Michael stopped working as a personal trainer to look after his future wife – but saw his mental and physical health decline too.

‘I stopped exercising, lost the care for what I was eating, I was stuck in my own head and not present. I had zero motivation, zero willpower, zero self-care and zero energy. I lost a lot of muscle, gained weight, slept poorly and my overall health declined,’ he added.
