The post continued: "Gutted to miss out but also very very happy to be wearing giant mesh knickers and saying “But his skin is just so SOFT!” ten times an hour.
"Mother and baby doing well because mummy has access to morphine and baby has access to boobies.
"Wishing the rest of the performers the best night for a fantastic cause! Wishing me 12 hours sleep and a massive Pina Colada (not with the morphine, don’t worry…)"
In September, Ellie revealed the happy news that she was pregnant with her second child.
