Former Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson East is celebrating her third pregnancy with husband and former NFL player Andrew East. The pair shares two children together, Drew, 3, and Jett, 2, with baby number three on the way. Johnson told Today.com that they will be waiting to find out the gender of the baby. \u201c<\/span>We found out the sex ahead of time with Jett<\/span>, but not with Drew. There was something so special about Andrew finding out first and sharing it with me and then going into the waiting room to announce the news to our families. That memory is etched in my mind.\u201d<\/span> She added saying, \u201cI\u2019m excited for him to have that moment again.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Johnson plans to have a C-section in December and confirmed that this will be her last pregnancy. Although this is her last pregnancy, Johnson added that their family may continue to grow in the future. \u201cI told Andrew we could talk about adoption,\u201d she said. \u201cWe can talk about having babies in other ways after this, but I am done with pregnancy.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She recently took to Instagram to squash the rumors that she may be carrying more than one baby this time. \u201cI wanted to squash this before I read any more comments,\u201d said the gymnast. \u201cI\u2019m 4-foot-11. My torso is like four inches tall. My husband is almost 6-foot-3, and my kids are almost 10 pounds when I have them. I carry big babies. This is my third. I\u2019m showing earlier.\u201d\u202f<\/span> Johnson shared how helpful her husband has been throughout the pregnancy saying, \u201cAndrew is always reminding me to go get a massage or get some sleep. He wants to take the kids places so I can rest. He\u2019s the best. He\u2019s like, \u2018I will support you in anything you want, just tell me what you need.\u2019\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
