Chrissy Teigen has taken to her Instagram Stories to say she's been forced to go on "super serious" bed rest due to her "difficult" pregnancy.
On Tuesday, the model - who is currently expecting her third child with musician husband, John Legend - shared an update on her pregnancy. She said that she's been put on bed rest as "punishment" for previously saying that her first two pregnancies with Luna and Miles were "easy peasy".
"I didn't really know that bed rest was in bed. I honestly thought bed rest was you have to really, really relax, stay home," the soon to be mother-of-three said in a video posted to her Instagram Stories. "I thought it could be couch rest. But now I'm in trouble. Now I need bed rest."
"I'm on super serious bed rest times because [I'm] just trying to be as healthy as possible," she continued. "It's a bit of a difficult pregnancy. I feel good though."
"I will say I'm probably being punished for talking so much about how great the first two went. I was like, 'Oh yeah, pregnancy's awesome!' But now I get it. I get anyone that thinks it's not so awesome, but very happy to be carrying this baby."
The Cravings author then took to Twitter to write: "Been in bed for all but 5 mins of the last 24 hours. Here til next Tuesday. Lord it's kind of crappier than it sounds. On punishment for saying the first two pregnancies were easy peasy."
Yesterday, the Lip Sync Battle host posted another update on her Instagram Story, where she posted a video from her bed.
"Hello, hello we're still here. Day two," she said, while laying down in a robe. "I got out of bed for five minutes yesterday and in that five minutes, I still bled everywhere. It's fun."
Fans of Chrissy Teigen have been left concerned for her health this week, after the pregnant model shared an update from her hospital bed and detailed a number of symptoms.
Per a report by the Daily Mail, Chrissy broke the news in a series of updates posted to her Instagram stories. In them, Chrissy told her 31 million Instagram followers that she had got to the point where she was "never stopping bleeding".
"I was always, always bleeding. The blood has been going on for a little less than a month. More than a period, definitely not spotting. Every time I’d go to the bathroom, it would be blood."
"Even just laying there, it would be blood. Today the big difference was it was like if you’d turn a faucet on too low and leave it. I was at the point today where I was never stopping bleeding, and that’s obviously really bad."
"My placenta is really weak. I feel really good, the baby is so healthy ... and I can’t wait for him. But he’s the strongest, coolest dude in the sh*ttiest house."
"His house is falling apart. He didn’t have the strongest chance at the very beginning. So all we’re doing now is trying to make sure he’s got a lot of fluid around him, and I’m resting as much as possible."
Chrissy also recently revealed to her fans that she's been plagued by recurring nightmares:

Chrissy first confirmed that she was pregnant with John Legend's third child in August, posting the news to her Instagram and Twitter accounts.
This followed some intense speculation from fans, after Chrissy appeared in the music video for Legend's new single 'Wild', and was spotted cradling her tummy lovingly.
In a recent interview with Cosmopolitan, John Legend stated that the couple will be endorsing former Vice President Joe Biden in the upcoming elections, and even stated that Donald Trump's administration had made them consider moving out of the US.
Legend stated:
"We were born and raised here, all of our families are here. It would be hard to leave. But I don’t know what one’s supposed to do when you have a leader who is trying to destroy democracy."

He added:
"At some point, if that project [to destroy democracy] was to be in any way successful, you’d have to think about going somewhere that is a true democracy, that has respect for the rule of law and human rights."
Teigen and Legend already share two little ones together: Luna, who was born in April 2016, and Miles, born in May 2018.
So it looks like there's another baby boy on the way for Chrissy Teigen and John Legend! Yep, the outspoken model accidentally revealed the wonderful news in an Instagram Story.
The 34-year-old then posted a snippet of the video on her main feed, with the caption: "Explaining what’s going on with my poopy placenta on my stories if you’re interested. Apologies for all the missed commitments in the next few weeks."
In the video, Teigen talks candidly about the complications she has endured during her pregnancy. "It's so weird because the baby's really really healthy," she explains in the clip before referring to the child as "he".
Check out the hilarious moment Chrissy Teigen accidentally reveals the sex of her unborn baby:
"He's big. He’s probably going to -- oops!" Teigen says realizing she'd unintentionally turned the pregnancy update into a gender reveal. "That was stupid," she remarks afterward.
But her followers certainly didn't find the gaffe stupid, with one writing: "This is how you gender reveal, folks."
Another one added: "Awww did you say “he’s”??? Congrats mama!!!"

In the video, she also spoke about complications she has experienced in previous pregnancies, telling her followers, "My placenta sucks."
"It’s always been kind of the bad part of my pregnancies with Luna," she said. "With Miles, it just stopped feeding him. It stopped taking care of him. I was stealing all his food because I was getting huge but he wasn’t getting big at all, so he had to come out early and Luna had to come out early. I was induced both times."
Despite referring to her placenta as "super weak," the cookbook writer told her fans that her unborn son is "growing beautifully." "Everything’s good," she said.
"I’m feeling really good, but my placenta’s really, really weak and it’s causing me to really bleed a lot. So basically, it’s just pretty high risk."
"This poor thing has been through so much already," she continued. "We just have to get my placenta healthy again, and that means not moving so I’m on complete and total 'don’t get out except to pee-pee' bed rest."
Earlier this week, Teigen took to her Instagram Stories to say she's been forced to go on "super serious" bed rest due to her "difficult" pregnancy.
"I didn't really know that bed rest was in bed. I honestly thought bed rest was you have to really, really relax, stay home," the soon to be mother-of-three said in a video posted to her Instagram Stories. "I thought it could be couch rest. But now I'm in trouble. Now I need bed rest."
"I'm on super serious bed rest times because [I'm] just trying to be as healthy as possible," she continued. "It's a bit of a difficult pregnancy. I feel good though."
"I will say I'm probably being punished for talking so much about how great the first two went. I was like, 'Oh yeah, pregnancy's awesome!' But now I get it. I get anyone that thinks it's not so awesome, but very happy to be carrying this baby."
Chrissy Teigen has said that she will "never be pregnant again" in a heartbreaking new Instagram post following the loss of her third child back in October.
After taking a brief hiatus from social media, Chrissy returned to Instagram in November and has been candid about how she and her family have been adjusting to the loss of their unborn son, Jack, and coping with the process of bereavement ever since.
In the latest Instagram post shared with her 33.5 million followers, the 35-year-old model and presenter uploaded a selfie taken in her dressing room and gave her fans an update on her current state of mind.
"This is me and my body, just yesterday. Even though I’m no longer pregnant, every glance in the mirror reminds me of what could have been. And I have no idea why i still have this bump, honestly. It’s frustrating.
"But I’m proud of where this entire journey took my body and mind in other ways. I love being pregnant, so so much, and I’m sad I never will be again.
"But I am lucky to have two amazing little ones who are transforming into big little people more and more every single day. Anyhoo. Love u guys. Xx [sic]"
Suffice it to say, a number of Chrissy's friends and fans, including her spouse himself, took to the comments to lend her their support.
"When I’m old and grey, I will look back on the last two months as being brutal, exhausting, sad, physically challenging, mentally painful b****** of a couple of months. But I refuse to not find humor in both the rage-fits and the outfits."
Take a look at the video of a tearful Chrissy here:
She continued: "I already see the leaves as orange instead of grey, realized the sky is indeed blue and not black and horn honks on my forced morning walks only bring me to my knees half the time. [sic]"
She added: "I can make it up my stairs only stopping once or twice instead of every other, and can get out of the bathtub all by myself as long as I have the promise john will dry me off. [sic]"
In a statement posted to their social media accounts the day after her admission, Chrissy and husband John Legend broke the tragic news that their third child had died.
They continued: "We never decide on our babies' names until the last possible moment after they're born, just before we leave the hospital. But we, for some reason, had started to call this little guy in my belly Jack.
"So he will always be Jack to us. Jack worked so hard to be a part of our little family, and he will be, forever.
"To our Jack - I'm so sorry that the first few moments of your life were met with so many complications, that we couldn't give you the home you needed to survive. We will always love you."
However, it's clear that Chrissy's bravery in talking about an important issue has inspired many more women to speak about the pain of losing a child, and Meghan Markle has also recently penned an open letter on the same subject.
The tragic news of her third child's death came just days after Chrissy first revealed to her fans that she had been suffering from pregnancy complications and severe bleeding while in hospital.
On October 1, the model and presenter shared a heartbreaking image of herself crying in bed, comforted by her husband John Legend.
In an emotional statement, Teigen wrote:
"We are shocked and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we’ve never felt before.
"We were never able to stop the bleeding and give our baby the fluids he needed, despite bags and bags of blood transfusions.
In the candid posts, Teigen continued: "We never decide on our babies' names until the last possible moment after they're born, just before we leave the hospital. But we, for some reason, had started to call this little guy in my belly Jack.
"So he will always be Jack to us. Jack worked so hard to be a part of our little family, and he will be, forever."
"To our Jack - I'm so sorry that the first few moments of your life were met with so many complications, that we couldn't give you the home you needed to survive. We will always love you."
Now Chrissy has made her first post on social media since the traumatic event.
Addressing her 32.8 million Instagram followers, Chrissy reshared a series of tweets that John Legend had made previously, which included a clip of his poignant performance at the Billboard Music Awards on Wednesday, which he had dedicated to her.
Chrissy captioned her post simply: "We are quiet but we are okay. Love you all so much."
Alongside the video of his performance, Legend wrote to his wife: "I love and cherish you and our family so much. We’ve experienced the highest highs and lowest lows together.
"Watching you carry our children has been so moving and humbling. I’m in awe of the strength you’ve shown through the most challenging moments.
"What an awesome gift it is to be able to bring life into the world. We’ve experienced the miracle, the power and joy of this gift, and now we’ve deeply felt its inherent fragility."
Although this is Chrissy's first proper post, she hasn't been entirely absent from social media.
The post in question featured a screenshot of a comment which read: "Just booked an eyebrow waxing appointment and I‘m excited I’ll be wearing a mask so I don’t have to hear ‘moustache too?’ [sic]"
Chrissy Teigen's four-year-old daughter, Luna, is being incredibly helpful and sweet during her third pregnancy.
While the model is on "super serious bed rest" due to a weak placenta, Luna has been taking a more hands-on approach. The toddler not only runs her mom a bath every day, but also insists on washing Chrissy's hair for her.
Taking to Instagram, Chrissy shared an image of her lounging in the bath, while Luna works on her hair. She captioned it: "every day she makes me a warm (not hot, chill!) bath and refuses to let me wash my own hair girls, man. @johnlegend how did we get so lucky with lulu?? [sic]."
"The love of our babies is so pure I wish everyone was able to see the world through their eyes [sic]," commented plus-size model, Tess Holliday, under the adorable snap, while Lily Aldrige corroborated "So sweet mama".
This comes after the soon to be mother-of-three took to social media to reveal that she's "in trouble" after not taking bed rest seriously.
Last week, the 34-year-old - who is currently expecting her third child with musician husband, John Legend - shared an update on her pregnancy. She said that she's been put on bed rest as "punishment" for previously saying that her first two pregnancies with Luna and Miles were "easy peasy".
"I didn't really know that bed rest was in bed. I honestly thought bed rest was you have to really, really relax, stay home," the soon to be mother-of-three said in a video posted to her Instagram Stories. "I thought it could be couch rest. But now I'm in trouble. Now I need bed rest."
"I'm on super serious bed rest times because [I'm] just trying to be as healthy as possible [sic]," she continued. "It's a bit of a difficult pregnancy. I feel good though."
"I will say I'm probably being punished for talking so much about how great the first two went. I was like, 'Oh yeah, pregnancy's awesome!' But now I get it. I get anyone that thinks it's not so awesome, but very happy to be carrying this baby."
The Cravings author then took to Twitter to write: "Been in bed for all but 5 mins of the last 24 hours. Here til next Tuesday. Lord it's kind of crappier than it sounds. On punishment for saying the first two pregnancies were easy peasy."
