In 2018, Mellencamp Arroyave revealed via social media that she likely would not have another child after the first two, making this pregnancy,which she conceived naturally, quite a surprise.
“This pregnancy, I didn’t even know I was pregnant till I was nine weeks pregnant. I’ve been able to be active the entire pregnancy,” she says. “It’s just been such a different experience.”
“You can go on and you fill out like a little style quiz,” she said. “So I submitted the pictures, I took the quiz and then they gave me two different options.”
