Charlotte Dawson has revealed she’s been “struggling” as she prepares to welcome her new baby.
The 32-year-old TV star, who is expecting a girl with fiancé Matt Sarsfield, admits she has been finding pregnancy challenging. After battling pregnancy sickness and being rushed to the hospital earlier this month due to severe pains, Charlotte, who is already a mother to sons Jude and Noah, has shared the emotional and physical toll this pregnancy has taken on her.
Opening up on social media, the Love Squad star, who is currently 37 weeks pregnant and due to welcome her baby in March, admitted that the final stages are proving to be a challenge. With her baby resting on her bladder, she admits finding it increasingly uncomfortable as her due date approaches.
On Instagram, she told her fans, " I'm going to miss my coffee, brew, and food holder, but I am struggling right now. She's lying on my bladder, and I feel like she's coming every minute." After tagging her glam team in the post, she joked, "At least if she comes this weekend, I look a bit glowy."

Instagram)Despite the challenges she has faced during her pregnancy, Charlotte shared her excitement about the arrival of her baby girl. Reflecting on her growing family, she expressed: "I've got two boys and I'm having a baby girl, which I'm very excited about. I've always wanted a little princess, so as you could imagine, I am very happy about it."
While looking forward to the joys of having a daughter, the doting mum opened up about challenges she may face, especially if her little one takes after her: "There'll be different challenges, if she's anything like me, Jesus. I can't wait to dress my little princess and to do fun TikToks with her." Earlier this month, some fans were convinced that the mum accidentally revealed her baby girl's name in a cheeky video.
It comes just after Charlotte was rushed to the hospital after suffering from pains and having a "big gush of water."
She shared a photo from the hospital the night before, saying she went in to get checked out after feeling extra sore and noticing less movement from the baby.
Charlotte wrote: "Went to the hospital last night after that story of me being so sore, I had a big gush of water & a few pains, less movement so just thought I'm best getting checked as my back waters went with Jude.
She added: "But no waters, just a water infection. So that explains a bit."
Last year, the star welcomed her son, Jude Dawson Sarsfield in July 2023. However, in October 2023, when Jude was just seven weeks old, he contracted RSV (Respiratory Syncytial Virus) bronchiolitis, a viral infection affecting the lungs. Charlotte noticed alarming symptoms, including labored breathing and a change in his skin color, prompting her to rush him to the hospital.
The influencer has since given fans an update on Jude's condition, admitting he is much stronger now. She took to Instagram to write last year: "From when he was last in hospital with it all 7 weeks I saw the difference in him now at 7 months being able to fight it off quicker & he is stronger and older.. but now his chest & breathing are still really bad. It's so scary really is..."
