Alex Jones revealed this week she was rushed to hospital after not being able to feel her baby’s heartbeat. The One Show host, 41, shared a picture on her Instagram stories with her hooked up to a heartbeat monitor. She captioned her image: “Hadn’t felt much movement from the baby for a few days so lying here being monitored. “If in doubt mammas ALWAYS check! So reassuring to hear the heartbeat.”
Alex, who already has a 13-month-old son Edward nicknamed Teddy, went on tell her 144,000 followers she could definitely hear the pulse.
She wrote: “His or her little heartbeat was going like the clappers.”

Standing with her co-host, Matt Baker, the 41-year-old said: “Bit of news before we go, now I’ve not been on the mince pies, there is a little baby, look.”
She immediately turned sideways and rubbed her tummy as Matt and the studio erupted into cries of “yeah” and lots of clapping.
Most mothers tend to share their good news when they have reached 12 weeks, which when the foetus is fully formed.
On that basis, assuming Alex was 12 weeks in December then full months pregnancy would take her to June.
