Ferne McCann 'in a lot of pain' and wants baby to come now as she gives pregnancy update

Ferne McCann says she wants her baby to come tonight as she gave fans a pregnancy update and admitted she's in pain.

The Only Way is Essex favourite Ferne announced she was expecting with fiancé Lorri Haines, both 32, back in March.

The reality star, who is already a parent to Sunday, five, from a previous relationship, has been sharing updates throughout the pregnancy so far.

She is set to give birth in the coming weeks ahead but if she had it her way, it would be a matter of hours.

Ferne has taken taken to Instagram to say expecting a baby in the mid-summer heat isn't fun.

She's clearly had enough of the sun after jetting off on holiday to Turkey over the past few days.

But she can't wait for the new arrival to get here – even if she fears she may be a week late.

"Okay, so here is a little update with where I'm at with my pregnancy," she told her followers.

"My pelvic bone is really sore. I didn't experience this with Sunday. So Sophie, my lovely hypno-birthing instructor has said, 'Just pretend you're a mermaid.'

"Not the big hip rolls on the birth ball anymore, just do little tiny ones and when you get out of the car – even though isn't third trimester with your big bump getting out of the car just so, so difficult, so little tiny movements.

"I had a midwife appointment this morning and all was really normal and pretty straightforward, however I feel like I'm a week out.

"I've just got this gut feeling that I'm a week behind, does that even make sense?

"I come a week early with Sunday and I just don't feel like that's gonna happen with this baby, I feel like I'm gonna go full term but who knows.

"I've forgotten about that feeling where you just come into labour. I cant wait for that moment, I want it to be tonight... no, it needs to fully cook, be patient.

"But can I take being pregnant in this heat any longer? Lorri has ordered every single cooling gadget there is on the internet."

She says she hopes to give birth while being filmed for her own ITV2 series First Time Mum, which is about to enter its 11th outing.

"I really want my birth on the show. I want to have that moment," she revealed to OK! Magazine.

"I just have such a vision of the type of birth that I want, and I think that would be so empowering to share that on this series."

Ferne announced she is expecting a baby with businessman Lorri six months after he popped the question.

The couple got engaged last summer with Ferne saying they bonded over their previous trauma.

Speaking to pal Vicky Pattison on her The Secret To podcast, she said: "He's got a child. I've got a child. We bonded over our trauma.

"Like we literally like laid everything on the table. I was like, here's all my s***. And he had the same and yeah, it's worked out."
