The expectant mother is nearly 22 weeks pregnant

Gypsy-Rose Blanchard made a new style choice more than halfway through her pregnancy.

The 33-year-old pregnant woman posted a picture of her growing baby belly on her Instagram Stories on Monday, September 16, 2017 Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update. The baby bulge is almost 22 weeks old.

“Bump update ���. 21 weeks +5 days,” she wrote in the text on the photo at Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update.

In the photo, she smiled wide as she posed in a gray t-shirt and pink Nike shorts while holding her baby bump.

Along with the Monday update, Blanchard shared a photo alongside her boyfriend, Ken Urker, on Sunday, Sept. 15. The expectant parents embraced one another as they posed in all-black ensembles on what appeared to be a night out at Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update.

The Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up star wore her blonde hair in a long blowout, prompting one follower to ask if she’s gotten extensions, which she confirmed she did at Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update.

She also informed one user that she’s having “a very healthy pregnancy.”

After being released from prison early on December 28, she has had a number of hair alterations, the most recent of which was on December 28. After entering a guilty plea for her part in her violent mother Clauddine “Dee Dee” Blanchard’s murder, she was sentenced to seven years in jail. Gypsy-Rose Blanchard posts about her pregnancy and newfound beauty.

The month after she was released she cut off eight inches of her hair, which she said would be donated to The Great Cut. In March, she first opted for the blonde look and got golden blonde highlights with a highlighted frosty blonde hair color. Two months later, she went back to her “natural” brunette hair color. Then, in July, Blanchard debuted a slightly shorter bob cut and dark blonde highlights at Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update.

That same month, Blanchard announced in a YouTube video that she was pregnant. Since then, she has updated followers about all aspects of her pregnancy, including changing her wardrobe to accommodate her growing baby bump and reading books about motherhood.

In August, the expectant parents announced they were having a girl with a sex reveal involving balloons and confetti at Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update.

More recently, on Tuesday, Sept. 3, the couple posted a photograph of her latest ultrasound in a joint Instagram post at Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update.

“Our sweet baby girl ���for our 20 week ultrasound. She is growing and measuring beautifully. #pregnancy #babygirl #newmom,” they wrote, alongside an ultrasound image of the baby’s head, arms and hands.

Shortly after she announced her pregnancy, she spoke to PEOPLE about how she plans to approach motherhood at Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update.

“All the things that I wanted in a mother, I want to give to this baby. My mother told me I was never going to get married, raise a family, have kids or do any of that. So, to be here, standing on my own two feet and expecting my first baby, that’s something I’ve reached as an achievement and a personal goal at Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update.”

“I want to be kind, that my kids come to me for any kind of advice, just like my stepmother [Kristy Blanchard]. I have seen how she has parented her children — and I think she’s a kick-ass mom,” she said at Pregnant Gypsy-Rose Blanchard Posts Baby and New Beauty Update.
