"I can't even begin to describe to all of you how happy I am! I'M GOING TO BE A MOM!!" she wrote in a lengthy caption. "It's something I have wanted to be my whole life. I was definitely shocked when I found out. And so nervous! I wasn't expecting it and felt I wasn't ready but this journey of life is unpredictable. I thank God every day and night for bringing this amazing blessing and miracle into my life! I am already SO IN LOVE!!"
"My baby and I have already fought the flu together and had victory!" the 36-year-old continued. "So I know we can take on anything in this world we want to... together. I love my little warrior baby! My baby is SO strong it's crazy! (Mama felt it everyday first trimester [laughing out loud]) Can't tell if it's the wrestling genes or the ballroom!! [Laughing out loud] It has lover and fighter blood and I will help my baby be a game changer this world needs! Thank you all for the love and support! So happy not to keep it a secret anymore! I'm 13 weeks tomorrow and already showing a little! So goodbye big sweatshirts and back to my crop tops [laughing out loud, just kidding] well maybe not!"
"Ok Bella Army prepare to get flooded with our pregnancy journey till August! And make sure to watch our [People] magazine interview online and a fun interview and more pics will hit newsstands on Friday!" Nikki concluded. "And the third slide!! [Oh my God] my baby!!!"
That morning, the former WWE star used her Instagram Story to thank fans for the support they had shown her after her announcement.
"Artem and I have felt so overwhelmed with so much love and happiness," she said in the first of a series of videos. "I literally sleep in every day, almost, pretty much, so when I woke up, I was so overwhelmed with so much love."
"I'm just so happy to finally talk to you guys about it, everything that Artem and I go through, what I've been going through," she continued. "It's just so nice not to keep it a secret anymore... I'm just excited to finally be able to talk about it and not cover up my tum anymore because I'm going to be 13 weeks tomorrow and I already have this little bump and it's so cute."
"I'm just really happy," she added. "I'm gonna be a mom! It's just the best. Honestly, it's amazing, so I'm really excited and I'm so in love with my baby already."
