Australian model and TV presenter Megan Gale has revealed that she went to great lengths in order to get pregnant with her second child, including taking a three week conception vacation.
The 41-year-old admitted to Show and Tell that after six months of trying to conceive she took a breakto focus of conceiving and that is when she fell pregnant.
Gale welcomed her first child River in 2014 with AFL star Shaun Hampson, and blamed the couples busy lifestyles for her not getting pregnant sooner the second time around.
"We got to the six months (and) I was like, 'Right, that's it, I'm taking three weeks off, I'm chilling out,"' she told Show and Tell.
"As much as you head into it thinking, 'We're going to keep it sexy and we're going to keep it romantic', you can't help going, 'Am I ovulating? What's going on? Is it in the window? Did we miss the window?'"
"This time it's been, 'Is it growing enough?' Before every scan it was, 'Is the heartbeat going to be there? Am I going to get that bad news again?'"
Megan announced her baby news on her Instagram page, captioning an image of a bun in an oven with "Well would you look at that. There's a bun in my oven. Not quite ready to take it out just yet. Should be fully baked come Spring time."
