Tia Mowry Says She Took 20 Pregnancy Tests To Confirm Second Pregnancy, Couldn't Believe She'd Have More Children
It's baby season in Hollywood as many celebrities are preparing to welcome children into the world. While some may be having their first child, there are others expecting their second or third child.
Tia Mowry is currently awaiting the arrival of her second child, a baby girl. The heavily pregnant actress revealed in November 2017 that she and her husband, Cory Hardrict, were going to be parents again.
Mowry has been very vocal in the past about her infertility struggles due to endometriosis. Because of her struggles, the actress revealed that she couldn't believe she was pregnant again.
Tia's Pregnancy Shocker
The actress stated that she and her husband wanted to give her son, Cree, a younger sibling, but the couple were discouraged after seeing various negative pregnancy tests. When the actress did actually become pregnant, she was in complete denial.
"I was in denial, to be honest with you. I probably went through 20 pregnancy tests. It was hard for me to get pregnant, so I wanted to be super positive before I got too excited," the 39-year-old actress stated in an interview.

The The Game actress continued that she was also shocked to learn that she was having a little girl, something she didn't think would happen for her.
"I was completely surprised! For some reason, I didn't think I would have a girl. I was shocked! I started crying because I knew how much my husband wanted to have a girl," she continued.

Mowry is best known for her role on the hit '90s sitcom, Sister, Sister, which she starred in with her identical twin sister, Tamera Mowry. Interestingly, Mowry's sister also has two children: a son, Aden, and a daughter, Ariah.
Mowry started her own cooking channel, Tia Mowry At Home, in 2015, which featured certain vegan recipes Mowry accredited that helped her deal with endometriosis. The actress also has her own YouTube series, Tia Mowry's Quick Fix.
Mowry isn't the only celebrity that has struggles with fertility issues before conceiving children. Reality star Khloe Kardashian was also diagnosed with endometriosis and was considering using a surrogate before becoming pregnant with her first child.
