Before signing off, the model, who recently spent a night out with friend Brook Vincent, gave some useful advice, saying: "Focus on you & bubba not the scales xx".

This isn't the first time the soon-to-be-mum has taken to answering questions on her social media channel.

Lucy was previously questioned by a fan whether she and her husband Ryan Thomas, 35, would like more children after this one.

Curious by what her Coronation Street star husband would think about it, she told her beau: "Someone has asked 'how many children do you think you'll have?'"

Ryan, who also has daughter Scarlett with ex Tina O'Brien, answered: ""Umm… well I’ve got one, and one on the way. And then we’re done!"

Obviously disappointed by the response, Lucy shouted after him: "No! You don’t mean that!,” while Ryan could be heard in the background saying: “Done! Done darling!”

It comes as Lucy, who announced her pregnancy on her birthday back in August, recently opened up on the "unexpected surprises" she's been experiencing while waiting for her little boy to arrive.

She wrote on Instagram: "Hello 3rd Trimester!! Pregnancy is truly magical but also comes with lots of unexpected surprises!
