Rachel Fuda's family is Poinbankgetting a little bigger.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey star announced that she and her husband of seven years John Fuda are expecting their third baby during the Aug. 11 series special.
After costar Melissa Gorga began her toast, "There's a lot of life to be had…" Rachel interrupted, sharing, "Considering I'm pregnant!"
Rachel—who shares daughters Gianella, 4, and Guiliana, 2, with John, as well as adopting his son Jaiden, 17—also revealed the sweet news on Instagram with a family video shoot with Bridal Cut by the ocean in all-white.
"When I was a little girl, I dreamt of my life as a mother, filling my future home with family and love," she reflected in the Aug. 12 Instagram post. "I'm forever grateful to God for allowing me to live my dream every day. With full hearts, we are counting our many blessings as we excitedly anticipate becoming a family of 6."
The 33-year-old has been open about her fertility journey since she first entered the show in season 13. Rachel, who conceived Gianella and Giuliana through IVF, reminded John of their five remaining embryos, noting, “The clock is ticking.”
But the process wasn’t easy as her rounds of IVF meant she had to wean off of her arthritis medication, which treats the chronic illness.
"There's so many things that have to go right when you're going through IVF, and this time around, there were a lot of roadblocks for us," Rachel told People in an interview published Aug. 11. "It took a couple months of us working with my doctor to figure out when this could actually happen for us. And it was really frustrating because it just kept getting delayed."
Following their difficulty conceiving, however, they had gotten the green light to try again.
"I thought, 'This is my last shot,'" she continued. "'If this doesn't work, we're done.' Because first of all, it costs a lot of money. But second of all, you're on all these medications that just throw your body off. I was hormonal, breaking out so bad, tired and on edge; my mood was going up, down, up, down. I just felt like, 'I can't do this anymore.'"
But their last attempt was ultimately a success. When the pregnancy test came back positive, she wanted to double-check that the result hadn’t been a false positive.
And although the experience was difficult, emotional and at times heartbreaking, Rachel is grateful to have another little one in their home.
"There's truly no better feeling in the world than having kids," she added. "It's almost a type of love that you just can't explain. Like, these little people make me a better person."
