Mandy Moore is opening up about the challenges she faced during her pregnancy journey.

The This is Us actress got candid about her fertility struggles and “unexpected” pregnancy in a new interview with Romper on Wednesday (January 27).

Mandy explained that after a meeting with her fertility doctor, she suspected she would need surgery before being able to carry a child.

“I was fully prepared to go have surgery and fix my uterus and hopefully get rid of the endometriosis, if it was there,” Mandy shared. “It was nice to have a plan and to know ‘Okay, well this is why I haven’t been pregnant yet.’”

When the doctor then told Mandy that she was ovulating and suggested she try for a baby, despite the small chance of conceiving, her expectations of anything happening were low. After finding out she was pregnant, she was reluctant to accept the news even when it had been confirmed by doctors.

“Because of this issue with my uterus, I was very hesitant to believe it and put any stock in it,” Mandy added. “I sort of was holding my breath until 12 weeks.”

The star also revealed how her husband Taylor Goldsmith has been preparing for their baby’s arrival.

“I think he’s been suited to be a father for pretty much his whole life. He’s been gearing up for this,” Mandy said. “Like in the morning, it’s funny, I’ll reach for my phone and he’ll reach right for whatever baby book he’s reading.”

Taylor just bought Mandy a very special gift to celebrate becoming parents – find out what it is!

Taylor Goldsmith has gifted Mandy Moore with a very special gift ahead of them becoming first time parents.

Mandy, 36, who is expecting the couple’s first child, shared the gift on social media to her fans of a toy dog from Cuddle Clones, that is almost a perfect replica of her dog Joni, who passed away suddenly in November.

“A little #tbt as we continue to set up for 👶’s arrival,” she penned in the caption of her post. “This was by far my fav gift over the holidays- something that @taylordawesgoldsmith had made. It’s a little stuffed animal version of my beloved Joni so that our son will still know her, even though they never got to meet. 😭😭😭😭.”

A few fans who follow her noted just how close the toy looked to Joni, and Mandy replied that “even our other dog was confused…”

Mandy recently showed off her growing baby bump in a sweet selfie earlier this month.

Mandy Moore is opening up about her pregnancy and how she was “super sick” at the beginning.

The 36-year-old actress opened up on SiriusXM’s The Jess Cagle Show while talking about going back to work on This Is Us amid the pandemic.

“We went back to work on This Is Us, like maybe a couple months ago now. And it’s lovely to have that to look forward to. I feel very grateful cause I know that’s not the case for everybody, especially in our line of work, but, that’s been lovely, but um, yeah, I’ve, I have had no complaints about staying home either. I’m a bit of a homebody, so it hasn’t been too challenging for me, but I also know I’m, I, you know, I’m just married. I don’t have children, I don’t have a ton of responsibility, so it’s pretty easy in that regard,” Mandy said.

Jess replied, “Um, Mandy, that’s all about to change.” Mandy then said, “That’s true. Yes, sir. Yes, no, I am. I am with child that I’m due in early next year, so yes.”

Mandy then talked about how it’s been to be pregnant during this time.

“I feel very lucky. I was really sick in the beginning. I was super sick, but I was home. So, you know, there was, I didn’t have to miss out on work. Um, I don’t know how women do it. I, I literally woke up and was sick all day long. I couldn’t eat, I lost a bunch of weight. I just like, I just stayed in bed all day. But luckily I know that’s not the case for everybody that it sometimes can, you know, persevere for the entire pregnancy. So I’m lucky that that kind of trailed off and I feel much better now, but, um, but beyond that, I feel like I had my energy back and feeling good. Like, yeah, Nope, no complaints,” she said.

Last weekend, Mandy cradled her baby bump during her first red carpet appearance as a mom-to-be.
