Danielle Fishel has a face that has been with us all since we were young. She is forever our Topanga. She was the IT girl in Boy Meets World. She was the epitome of girl power and sisterhood long before any of us knew the true meaning of those words.
Now, the actress recently rang in her 40th birthday by announcing she's expecting her second child!
Now, Danielle is taking on the role of pregnancy again after announcing she and hubby Jensen Karp are expecting their second child! Danielle gave birth to the pair's first son Adler just under two years ago.
The newborn was in the neonatal intensive care unit due to fluid build-up in his lungs for 21 days, as per People.
"It's a leak in the lymphatic system."
"Unfortunately, my breast milk was creating fluid in his lungs, and we had to take him off of breast milk and put him on a specially formulated formula that doesn't use the lymphatic system."
Danielle was later told this was common with the rare condition.
"We were not expecting that. The last thing we had heard was that it looks good, the fluid's going down.
"We were trying to be as positive as possible, and letting each other know that we're okay. "We were obviously both still thinking of the other one, and saying, 'Oh God, I hope he's okay,' and 'She's worried about me.'"
"For every first-time parent, it's an adjustment to know it wasn't ideal, but he's healthy and he's going to make it. We have the best doctors around us, etc. Those are the things you kind of ease into."
We're so happy Adler made a full recovery!
Posting on Instagram, the actress wrote: "F O R T Y! I've never been more excited or hopeful for the next decade of my life. I had a beautiful childhood, teenage years I still dream about, my 20's were insane (and mostly miserable) and my 30's brought me lows and highs but eventually I leveled out to a place of security."
"I couldn't be more grateful to enter my 40's with my amazing husband and son, excitedly expecting the arrival of baby boy #2."
"My birthday wish is for all of you to tell someone how much you love them and walk through today with more patience than you normally might."
Fans were overjoyed for Danielle and her soon-to-be second baby boy!
