'What are the odds?' Former Home And Away star Christie Hayes reveals she fell pregnant with second baby just SIX weeks after birth of first son
She gave birth last October to a beautiful baby boy, Hendrix Walter White, and just six weeks later former Home And Away star Christie Hayes discovered she was pregnant with her second child.
Appearing on The Morning Show for their Flashback Friday segment, the 28-year-old was speaking to hosts Larry Emdur and Kylie Gillies who asked if she had any plans to expand her family.
'Well funnily enough, when Hendrix was six weeks old, we found out that I am expecting a second baby, so I am almost six months pregnant. Would you believe it?' she told the surprised hosts.

'What are the odds?' Former Home And Away star Christie Hayes revealed on The Morning Show on Friday she's six months pregnant with her second child and will give birth before her firstborn turns one
Larry joked: 'When Hendrix was six weeks old, is that even legal?'
Christie responded in jest: 'Nobody on the planet has done that right? It doesn’t happen to anybody but me! And I just decided I’d make life as easy as possible!'
Kylie, a little confused about what the age difference between the children would be, asked Christie to clarify.
The actress explained that there would be an 11 month age difference and when Hendrix celebrates his first birthday in October, he will have a little brother or sister.
So soon! Christie explained that she found out she was pregnant with her second child just six weeks after the birth of Hendrix
'It just happens!' The actress and fiancé Daniel White couldn't believe that it was possible to get pregnant so soon after giving birth
Larry told Christie that he and his older sister were both born in the same year, also 11 months apart, and joked: 'I think that my mum had the same doctor you had who said "Go home, don’t worry about anything! You can't get pregnant now!"'
The actress said: 'I don’t mean to sound stupid but that’s genuinely what I thought, I know I shouldn't admit that on national television, but I was quite oblivious you know you’re tired, you’re exhausted, you’re trying to do all these things.
'And without being crass, what are the odds you know? Maybe a few times, you and your partner might get intimate and it just happens!'
Ecstatic: The actress said she and her husband were very excited for baby number two: 'We’re ecstatic, we’re looking forward to it, but I think we’ll pump the breaks after two'
When asked how her fiancé Daniel White had reacted she said: 'Well he was ecstatic, he’s a born father, he’s very hands on –' as Kylie quickly interrupted to say: 'Clearly!'
Christie and Daniel, a wine broker, became engaged in August of last year, shortly after the Summer Bay favourite divorced her previous husband, actor Greg Hatton, in May
'We’re ecstatic, we’re looking forward to it, but I think we’ll pump the breaks after two,' Christie laughed.
Christie also revealed she would be working on a new film called The Dress next year with Australian writer and director Bradley Patrick.
The Dress is a romantic movie about a woman whose search for the perfect wedding dress takes her across the globe.
Flashback: She was previously married to actor Greg Hatton, pictured together in 2009, before divorcing in May 2013 and becoming engaged to wine broker Daniel White in August of the same year
