Former softball player Jennie Finch and her husband, MLB pitcher Casey Daigle, have revealed they are expecting their second child, a baby boy in late June. The couple, who has been married for six years have a 4 year-old boy named Ace Shane.

The 30 year-old Olympic champion is 17 weeks pregnant and happy to share the experience with the fans. Jennie retired to focus on her family and to take full advantage of motherhood.

Jennie wrote on her People blog, “It’s so easy to get caught up in all of the physical changes and feelings of pregnancy these days. Feeling tired, feeling nauseated, expanding everywhere … but then I’m brought back to reality and am humbled with the incredible miracle of motherhood. It is indeed a miracle. It’s so wild to think that our baby — who started as two cells — is now the size of a turnip. I’m not sure why the baby books all use fruits and vegetables to explain the size of your child, but a turnip he is! He went from a grape to a lime to a turnip.”

Jennie also confessed that she is not being as careful with her diet and exercise as she was when she was pregnant with Ace because she is now retired. She has been indulging and finally realized she had to start a healthy died after discovering she had gained more than 12 lbs. between two consecutive visits to the doctor.

Daddy and family will be forced to move to Scottsdalle, Arizona since the pitcher recently signed for the San Francisco Giants and starts training in the spring. Meanwhile, Jennie is looking for hot new maternity clothes.

Congratulations to Jennie and Casey!
