Pregnant Gretchen Rossi Shows Proof That She’s Eating Despite her Small Baby Bump
The Real Housewives of Orange County alum and mom-to-be Gretchen Rossi is nourishing her body — despite how it might look to some.
Pregnant Gretchen Rossi may not have a sizable baby bump at six months along — but she assures fans and followers of her pregnancy after IVF journey that she is eating. The Real Housewives of Orange County alum had a rocky start with nausea (which she managed by eating one food she discovered was helpful), and she's eating substantially now that she's squarely in the next phase, too.
"See, I told you I'm eating!" she narrated an Instagram Stories clip, showing a hearty bowl, and tagging her man Slade Smiley preparing it: "Thanks my love @sladecbd!"
From behind the phone, Gretchen continued to explain — even prove — that she's been eating, how much she's been eating, and what sort of food she's been eating while pregnant.
"Macaroni and some ground turkey meat," she said of the cheesy comfort food in the bowl. "I've been eating a lot you guys. My doctor just says I'm carrying small right now because I was fit before so it takes a lot longer for my belly to pop."
She added, "I actually popped this last week but she says it's going to get really big here soon — so I'm a little scared because I've been having a lot of growing pains and it's very painful here so far! So, let's see."
And indeed, Gretchen has shown past Instagram evidence of other delicious pregnancy indulgences as well: Consider her epic gender reveal cake and over-the-top dessert table!
