Emily Maynard is pregnant again. For those counting at home, the "Bachelorette" gave birth to her second child, son Jennings Tyler Johnson, less than eight months ago and the soon-to-be big brother will be 15 months when his little brother or sister arrives this summer.
Maynard announced on Tuesday that she and husband Tyler Johnson are expecting their second child together. She also has a 10-year-old daughter Ricki, whose father is Maynard's late fiancé, NASCAR driver Ricky Hendrick, who died in a 2004 plane crash.
"Well... I'm pregnant. Again," the reality star wrote on her People blog. "And before you even say anything, yes, I realize I just had Jennings like, two seconds ago. I guess I should've read that part in the baby handbook that says you're super fertile after giving birth, huh?"
The mother of two also wrote that she feels "a little guilty" for not giving Jennings more time to enjoy his place as the baby of the family. On the other hand, her daughter Ricki is excited because she gets to move into the biggest room in the house.
During season 15 of "The Bachelor," Brad Womack chose Maynard to give his final rose but the couple split after the show. She then courted 25 men on the eighth season of "The Bachelorette," and chose Jef Holm, but they split three months after the show's finale.
Maynard met her husband Tyler at church and the couple got engaged in January 2014. They married in June of that year. Ricki served as her mother's maid of honor.
"God brought us together. He's given me such peace about everything. I'm so grateful I met him," Maynard told People at the time. "For so long I felt so embarrassed and ashamed about that TV stuff... The grace that my faith has given me to wipe that all away and not find worth in that and find it through God, Tyler has been a great example of that for me."
The expectant mother asked other moms with two kids under two years old for "must-have tips" and acknowledged how her life would be forever changed with so many kids running around the house.
"Practically speaking, I have a hard enough time getting through the grocery store with a 7-month-old and a 10-year-old! How in the world do you mamas do it with even more little one?" Maynard wrote in her blog. "I've already come to terms that my body may never be the same as it was before, my house may never be as clean as it is now, and laundry may get put off a little longer."
