Her twins, due in April, will be her first babies with boyfriend Billy Delbosq, 39.

Speaking on mambaby_uk's Instagram live to midwife Zoe, Amy said: "I don't get a lot of movement.

"There were a few people messaging me the other day, when I said 'I have a not a lot of movement', and because I'm getting big there is not alot of room in there.

"I will honestly say I didn't feel it kick, I rang the midwife straight away, of course I got checked. It was fine.

"That worry never goes."

Amy is already mum to Polly, five, and four-year-old Richie from previous relationships.

Since announcing her pregnancy in October, Amy has been open about her journey, already appearing to confirm her due date and plans for a natural birth.

Yet despite her scans showing gestation was at 24 weeks - which means Amy should be giving birth on or around April 26 - the star recently suggested that she is already worried about contractions.

The TOWIE favourite took to her Instagram page to post a slide which quizzed: "Braxton hicks. When do they start?"

Braxton Hicks - regularly called practice contractions - are perfectly normal during pregnancy.

When mums are expecting they might notice their tummy becoming hard and experience period-like cramps, which are Braxton Hicks.
