SHAUGHNA Phillips revealed why she was shocked to find out about her pregnancy.
The former Love Island star featured in the sixth series of the hit ITV2 dating show.
Back in June, Shaughna, 31, revealed that she was pregnant with her second child.
Now, the star has admitted that although she wanted to have another baby, she wasn't expecting to get pregnant so quickly.
She told The Sun: "I was trying. It was my first attempt at, I guess, getting pregnant, like actively trying.
"And so I knew that there was a chance, but I've probably kept Clear Blue in business.
"If you saw my Amazon orders, I was ordering test after test after test. It was actually ridiculous. So, yeah, I knew that there was a chance.
"But I really didn't expect it to happen on the first try. Like, I'm very lucky in that sense."
The star admitted that she used to continuously take tests, but it was still a shock when she saw that positive line.
"I was testing, testing and testing, and it was coming back negative because I was so early," Shaughna revealed.
"Then it got to the point where, because I was testing so much, I would do one and not even think twice about it because I was doing them about seven times a day."
The TV personality continued: "And so I did one, first thing in the morning, and I left it in the toilets for about half an hour.
"I think only when I went back in there to brush my teeth, I was like, oh, yeah, there it is, let's have a look."
"I was thinking it's going to be negative, obviously. And then there was the faintest positive line; I was over the moon."
The star admitted she was stunned by the news, but she conducted yet another test to make sure the news was definite.
"But I just really didn't expect it'd be the first try. So, it was a shock. It was still a shock, even though I was trying," she added.

She told The Sun: "Yes. So I do know the gender. I didn't find out with Lucia, and so I wanted to find out this time.
