Dizon then talks to the camera, sharing that she’s “excited” and “anxious.”

“I would love a boy because my boy is easy, and I could have ten of him,” says the soon-to-be mom of three. “But I kind of want a girl because then we can have one more because if I have a boy we’re one and done and that’s not okay with me.”

She then adds, “I honestly just want whatever is healthy, happy — like he says 10 fingers, 10 toes — I’m just so excited about this portion of our life together, and it’s going to be amazing.”
