Her caption reads: 'Miracles are everywhere! Thanking God and everyone whose kindness and support helped more than you will ever know ❤️ #LoveHelpers.'
And according to People, the design wiz is expecting a baby girl in June.
'It was a real miracle. For me, there was this unconditional love I received from my daughter that validated everything that other people hadn’t in my life,' she told the site.

'So when I found out that that would happen again, it was like, this is too great.
It wasn't easy getting pregnant for the second time.
The small-screen wonder has been open about her struggle to conceive as she has undergone in vitro fertilization treatments. She even discussed her challenges on Flipping Out with co-star Jeff Lewis.
Grateful: 'It was a real miracle. For me, there was this unconditional love I received from my daughter that validated everything that other people hadn’t in my life,' she told People
'Being open about it and being able to share lets other people understand that they’re not alone,' she said.
'I feel like a champion because I took this on. I can’t tell you what it’s going to feel like the day my daughter is born. I fought for this little girl.'
Jenni even got specific about how poor her chances were.
'We had one embryo that they said could be viable. They said you’d have a 50/50 percent chance that it will work,' she said.

But she pushed on: 'We had one chance, and through the process we almost stopped because the doctor said, "This isn’t looking good." And something in me said, go forward.'
She also won't sugarcoat how difficult IVF can be.
'There were some dark times in this, I’m not going to pretend like there weren’t,' she said.
She gave it her all: 'I feel like a champion because I took this on. I can’t tell you what it’s going to feel like the day my daughter is born. I fought for this little girl.' Pictured September
'I want people to believe that they can have a lot of touchdown passes in the fourth quarter. I want them to have hope.'
In September she revealed on Flipping Out the heartbreaking news that she had suffered several miscarriages.
'I wanted to talk about it, but it was private and it was difficult to share those emotions... [but] it kind of seemed like the right thing to do because if I could even help one person out there and say, "Hey, I've had miscarriages, I've had disappointments, and don't ever give up, even if you're a woman over 40 and medicine is against you and the numbers are against you, miracles surpass medicine.'"'
She added: 'And I believe that. I believe in something bigger. So I don't want anyone to lose hope that they can't have the desires of their heart.'
