She announced her pregnancy on Wednesday followed by the news that she was due sooner than she had thought, and now Stacey Solomon has revealed the next stage of her pregnancy. The Loose Women panellist, who is expecting her fifth child, has told fans that she's in the 'nesting' stage and "can't sit still."
Stacey, 33, hosts the BBC show Sort Your Life Out in which she and her team help families transform their homes with a life-changing declutter, but she admitted that her own home is a "bit of a mess." She has urged fans to gather in solidarity and team up with her to have a "good clear out."
"Honestly can't sit still," she typed in a frank Instagram post. "I feel like I spent 2022 sorting lovely people's lives out and mine's a bit of a mess. So I'm going to try and get myself sorted this year. I feel like I'm going to be that annoying person on a mission before baby comes."

She continued: "I'm going to try and sort myself out one small thing at a time every day in Jan. So if anyone fancies a good clear out and start over maybe we can do it together and motivate each other. I'm so excited to start nesting. 2023 let's do this!"
Stacey posted video of herself and husband Joe Swash on New Year's Eve hard at work tidying away traces of Christmas from their home. "Want to start 2023 fresh," she wrote. "Spent the whole of today putting away Christnas ready to start fresh for 2023."
The TV star also gave fans a glimpse inside her organised fridge after giving it a deep clean and treating herself to a drinks can holder to provide more space. She said: "First little job for the first day of Jan to try and get off to a good start."
Stacey announced her joyous baby news by sharing an adorable video showing the moment she told former EastEnders star Joe that she was pregnant, holding out a positive test to show him. Writing "Me + Him =" followed by six emojis to represent their children, Stacey said the pregnancy had come as a "huge surprise" to the couple, who tied the knot in July at their fairytale family home in Essex.
Stacey, who sweetly refers to her children as her 'pickles', wrote: "So grateful & can not believe I’m saying this… Another little pickle is on the way… A HUGE surprise, but one that we are so thankful for to the moon & back bub."
In the video Stacey told Joe, who has two children Rex, two, and one-year-old Rose, with Stacey and a teenage son Harry from a previous relationship, to come into their bathroom and was asked "what you holding?" as Joe clocked the test.
"You're joking!" he exclaimed as he saw the result and told Stacey: "This is the best news bubba." On Friday Stacey, who also has older sons Zach and Leighton, gave an update on her social media to say their baby is due "much sooner" than they thought. They are set to welcome their new 'pickle' as soon as next month.
"Coming soon… Much sooner than we thought When we found out we still wanted to have that first few months you usually would to adjust and get excited and enjoy it to ourselves, but that didn’t leave us with very long left So this time next month we will be getting ready to say hello to a whole new pickle," wrote Stacey as she shared stunning photos of herself showing her gorgeous baby bump in a Calvin Klein bralet and jeans.
"So grateful," she added. "While we had some time off we thought we better take some memories before it’s too late @chelseawhitephotog who took our wedding pictures took these photos for us And my best friend & make up queen @peneloperyanbeauty gave me a makeover Happy Friday Everyone."
