Stacey Solomon has confused fans by claiming that she didn't know that she was expecting her fifth child until she was eight months pregnant.
The jovial Loose Women star, 33, shocked her loyal fans last week as she announced she was expecting her fifth child, and third with hubby Joe Swash.
And on Sunday night, the expectant mum took part in an impromptu Q&A with her followers as she answered their burning questions surrounding her surprise pregnancy after she revealed that she's due her fifth baby this month.
During the candid Q&A, Stacey joked that she and Joe had only discovered that they were having another baby when the Loose Women star was eight months pregnant.
However, fans were left highly confused about the confession, as they rushed to ask Stacey how she didn't realise she was expecting a baby with such a big bump and all the signals and symptoms of pregnancy.

After a user said they were confused at how the duo didn't notice her growing belly, Stacey confessed they decided to wait the first few months so they 'had it to ourselves' after 'finding out late'.
She quipped: "I must be saying it wrong. I mean, we didn't just find out three days ago when I looked down and was like 'oh, that's not my usual evening bloat. What's going on?'
"But when we did find out it was past the point people would usually tell people."

While they haven't yet chosen names for their unborn child, Stacey revealed that Joe is keen to go with a traditional name.
"We've got no names. Like literally, nothing. We've had so many kids we've ran out of names."
Shouting to Joe in the background she revealed he likes 'really old' names like Betty or Arthur, while Stacey confessed she's leaning towards floral or Hebrew names.
Stacey and Joe are already proud parents to Rex, 3, and Rose, 1, while she also has Zach, 14, and Leighton, 10, from previous relationships.

When Stacey and Joe announced the latest addition to their family, the Loose Women star quickly revealed the due date is this month.
She told her Insta followers: "Coming soon… Much sooner than we thought When we found out we still wanted to have that first few months you usually would to adjust and get excited and enjoy it to ourselves, but that didn’t leave us with very long left.
"So this time next month, we will be getting ready to say hello to a whole new pickle. So grateful."
