Ready for Baby! Chelsea Houska Opens Up About Labor Plans — Just Weeks Before Her Due Date

On Aug. 22, someone asked, “Thought you was in labor now? “Just seen a post saying you was.” In response, Chels said, “I can promise everyone that whenever I AM in labor… nobody will know… and there def won’t be posts and silly little articles about it.” 

The reality star mama, who is currently 38 weeks along, added, “I will announce when I have her. But the last thing on my mind while I’m in labor is going to be getting on social media.”

When someone wondered why Chelsea would keep the news a secret, despite living her life on reality television, she clapped back, “All I was saying was that I don’t plan on being on social media or announcing to everyone when I’m in labor. Will definitely announce once she’s here!” In other words, relax people!

Chelsea’s first daughter, Aubree, 8, was born at 35 weeks, while her son Watson, 19 months, was born at 37 weeks — so she’s already surpassed them both with baby No. 3!

But at this point, it sounds like Chels is ready to welcome her baby girl. “I read something that said at this stage of pregnancy, the baby is so smooshed in there that the big kicks will now just be small jabs,” she tweeted on Aug. 23. “I’m here to tell you that is FALSE. There’s nothing small about these jabs to the ribs.”

Luckily, she and Cole already have a plan in place for when the big day finally does come! “Every time we go anywhere, Cole has to go over what the game plan is if my water breaks,” she told fans. “‘I’m just going to sprint to the car… you make your way to the outside.'” Ugh, they’re so stinkin’ cute together. 

The duo announced on March 15 that they were expecting for the second time together. “….GUESS WHAT! A sweet baby girl will be joining the DeBoer clan in a few short months! We could not be more excited! ?,” Chelsea wrote as the caption on a photo of a black and white ultrasound.
Cole shared the same pic with the caption, “This proud dad is getting a new Bow ?and it’s nailed my heart ?.” Clearly, they’re thrilled to be adding another kiddo to their brood!

After all, the soon-to-be mother-of-three once said, “I just want so many baby Coles. I think it’d just be fun to have so many babies closer together. [With Aubree and Watson] it was seven years before we had another kid. We need to just be patient, but I can’t help it.” It looks like she really couldn’t! We can’t wait to meet their little one — and find out her name. Ya know, ’cause we’re nosey.
