The Bachelor alumna Bekah Martinez is expecting her second child with beau Grayston Leonard. She's been sharing updates with fans on how smooth this pregnancy is compared to the last one, which only happened within a few months of their courtship.

The 24-year-old wrote on Instagram, “12 weeks. ♥️ I can’t believe how fast this pregnancy is moving. I feel guilty talking about this, but this pregnancy is already night and day compared to our first.”

In Martinez's lengthy post- along with an adorable picture of her showing her developing baby bump- she explained that her last pregnancy as “stressful, scary, and often filled with doubt”. After all, even before they could know each other well, she and Leonard were being entangled in more profound responsibilities! They met in February of 2018, and when she became pregnant in May, it wasn’t easy. She felt “embarrassed and ashamed” and imagined that everyone around her “whispering about how ‘irresponsible’” they were.

However, all their doubts vanished once their daughter Ruth Ray De La Luz- who's now nine months old- was born this past February. The mom continued, “Truly. I know it’s a cliche, but love blossomed so deeply between us the moment she took her first breath. That very night we danced together in the living room while she slept.”

With a nine-month-old baby and after being in love with Leonard for more than a year, she feels more relaxed and excited to welcome the baby on the way.

“Now, with this baby, we can give ourselves permission to be joyful. We’re not fearful. We’re delighted. I can see it on Gray’s face when he touches my belly and tell the baby he loves it. Maybe that’s why this pregnancy is already zooming by— time really does fly when you’re having fun.”

The couple first shared the news of their second pregnancy this past Thanksgiving with Bekah’s Instagram post, which showed the family holding a sonogram. She held the sonography report with Leonard and carried Ruth, in a baby pink snow jumper, who smiled happily. The photo had a short and straightforward caption - “Thankful” with an orange heart.

This exciting announcement of Martinez comes at the end of a Bachelor baby boom. On May 4th, we saw Whitney Bischoff welcoming son Hayes Singleton- who came weeks before Luyendyk Jr. and Lauren Burnham became parents to daughter Alessi Ren. Just after two months, on July 29th, Tanner and Jade Roper Tolbert welcomed their second son Brooks Easton. Earlier this month, Carly Waddell and Evan Bass welcomed their second bundle of joy to the world, son Charles “Charlie” Wolfe.

While the would-be mom is thrilled to welcome their second child, we wish them all the best and hope Bekah enjoys every moment of her pregnancy.
