The star adds in a blog post for the magazine that being emotional is one of the main problems she's dealing with during pregnancy.

She writes: 'The other day I cried after my brother ate my strawberry laces that I'd hidden in the fridge. 

'I also cried when I broke a nail, watching certain TV ads, and sometimes crying because I'm crying! I can't win, I don't know what's going on. '

Former Hollyoaks actress Stephanie split from Jeremy in May, though he has insisted that the timing is not right for her unborn baby to be his. 

'I actually always thought I was having a boy,' she told OK! magazine. 'My mum, best friend, brother, aunt and two cousins came with me to the appointment.' 

Despite saying she didn't cry at first, the brunette beauty struggled to hold back the waterworks after the appointment because she couldn't believe how much the little one looked like the man she believes is the father, Jeremy.

She said: 'It's the weirdest and most amazing thing - even at this stage, our son looks just like Jeremy. He's got his skinny long legs and big ears.'

Over the course of their four-month relationship - which began during a stint on this year's Celebrity Big Brother - Jeremy and Stephanie split five times. 

The brunette was tempted to send her ex-partner the 4D video of the scan, though she says his decision to have no involvement was 'his loss.' 

'I'd like to say [I cried] happy tears,' Stephanie continued. 'But they were tinged with some sadness because seeing my baby like that really made it hit home that I'm going to be a single mum. I was also a little sad because it's another milestone in the pregnancy that Jeremy has missed out on.'

And, although she's only just entered the second trimester of her pregnancy, the former Hollyoaks star has already chosen the little one's name.

Stephanie has decided to call the child 'Albi' after her grandfather, who passed away shortly before her stint in CBB.

Albi will share his middle name, Patrick, with Stephanie's brother, but it has also been chosen because it is Irish, like Jeremy.

Meanwhile, Stephanie - who split from Jeremy in April following four months of on/off dating - can't wait to meet him and is convinced he's going to be a 'mummy's boy' and her 'best pal.'

She said: 'I'm excited because my son's going to be the first man to love me unconditionally. He'll love me and be there for me forever, which is something I haven't experienced before.' 

Fans previously believed that Stephanie had hinted at having a baby girl when she accidentally included the world 'her' in a Tweet.
