Becky Miles is currently in the second trimester of her pregnancy and has revealed to fans how she is feeling.

The former Bachelorette took to her Instagram to share a video of her growing baby bump, which she lovingly touches.

In her caption, she wrote about her pregnancy experience and revealed when she found out she and her partner James Bevin were expecting.

“Strange thoughts going through my mind like….🌸 are you even there baby?! 20 weeks 4 days today!! Sounds so crazy that we are half way to meeting our little human 😭💗,” she wrote.

“I’ve so far (luckily) had a pretty cruisy pregnancy – no morning sickness and even though we were ‘letting things happen’ we weren’t paying much attention – we didn’t know about him/her until we were about 12 weeks into our pregnancy (CRAZY hey?)!!”

Becky also shared that she is yearning to feel her bub kick, but after experiencing movement for the first time last week, she’s over the moon.

“So I’ve really been wanting to feel kicks, the “flutters” to have my pregnancy feel so much more REAL, less of a dream,” she penned.

“I had been reading up on when to feel those kicks (as early as 16 weeks, up to 22 weeks they say), and with people asking, “oh have you felt them kick yet”, “oh surely you’ll feel the flutters soon”… so with this week finally feeling movement – it’s been THE BEST feeling 💫.”

Becky announced her pregnancy news at 18 weeks in an interview with News Corp.

She told the publication, “I can’t wait to be a mum. I have always wanted to be a mother, and I guess I have had some close friends that have had some issues falling pregnant in the past.

“I was given some advice from a friend who said if I was dreaming of being a mum and getting pregnant, maybe I should just let nature do its thing. And so we did.”

The 31-year-old blonde beauty and James have been together for 18 months and met on the dating app Hinge.

Becky and James said that they’re talking about marriage while preparing for their new life as parents.

“We couldn’t be happier,” gushed Becky. “It is such a lovely relationship.

“We have been dreaming of those next steps and talking about engagement and having a baby and now that has all become a reality. Although it seems a bit surreal still, it is really exciting, and I can’t wait to be a mum.”
