The news about Schwarzenegger's pregnancy broke in December and shortly after the couple was seen strolling along with the mother's baby bump on display. Recently, in March the BDA Baby podcast host revealed on her show that their daughter Layla was beyond excited to be an older sister. While disclosing a picture of two dolls with diapers on, the 32-year-old mother wrote, via ET, "The latest toddler treats I find around the house… all her babies and stuffies are wearing diapers and bandaids." She continued, "Mamas girl is nesting (fun fact: the doll on the left was bought when I was born and is doing well 32 years later) #vintage."
