Pregnant Lauren Goodger reveals she's having sex 'all the time' to bring on labour

Pregnant Lauren Goodger has revealed she’s having sex “all the time” with boyfriend Charles Drury in a bid to bring on labour.

The former The Only Way Is Essex star, who is 39-weeks pregnant with her first child, went public with her 24-year-old beau last October and admitted that she is trying everything to get her little girl out, including some intimate time.

Speaking to The Sun, the 34-year-old said: "Before I was quite calm and now I’m like, 'right we need to do everything we can to get this labour coming on', I’ve got a ball, we need to have sex.

"In the sperm there’s a hormone that relaxes your cervix so I need that."

The former TOWIE star also revealed that her pregnancy has strengthen her relationship with Charles.

"We have sex all the time anyway. Of course, we do, we’re very affectionate, he’s very loving," she added. "It’s definitely brought us stronger together and we feel like a family."

Her spicy comments come hours after Lauren updated fans about the "painful" mystery rash which has plagued her during the later phases of her pregnancy.

The ITVBe star has been desperately worried about the itchy red rash which covers her pregnant tum.

But thankfully having sought expert advice from doctors, the reality TV star was relieved to discover she wasn’t suffering from the condition Pre-eclampsia.

Pre-eclampsia is a condition that affects some pregnant women in the second half of pregnancy (around 20 weeks) or soon after their baby arrives.

And in a post to her 783,000 Instagram fans, she shared a snap of her blossoming bump to reassure fellow mums that what she was experiencing was perfectly healthy.

"Update on my rash!" penned Lauren. "So I had my bloods done (and what I thought anyway). No issues come back my bloods are all normal. No liver probs. No infection. Nothing serious to me or baby.

"Some people said preclamsia [sic] and all sorts which is why I wanted [sic] get medically checked also. But it’s ‘just’ hives/pregnancy rash!

"I say ‘just’ but it’s literally the worst thing I’ve ever had! I’ve never had a rash before."

But the shattered TV personality admitted: "I am awake until sunrise. I am exhausted. It’s sore. Raw. Bumpy and my skin feels like leather and it’s hot like prickly heat!

So anyone suffering we got this and it will go soon as we give birth! On a positive note it’s good strong hormones!”

She added at the bottom of her honest post: "It’s no harm to you or baby but it’s awful I no. I can’t sleep, or relax and it’s so painful!!

“The joys we have to go through but it’s actually made me not worry about the birth as much because this is unbearable so maybe that’s a positive!! Come on baby girl!!
