AceShowbiz - Ashley Tisdale shares her exhaustion and discomfort as her due date nears, while being sick for three weeks. The "High School Musical" star took to Instagram on Friday, August 16 to reveal that she has been struggling with illness in the final stretch of her pregnancy.

Despite feeling exhausted and ready to welcome her second child, she still has tasks to complete before her baby's arrival. "I'm exhausted. I'm ready to have this baby but not ready," Tisdale wrote on her Instagram Story, accompanied by a photo of herself in bed looking somber.

"I still need to wallpaper the room, get everything organized, so don't come yet! BUT I've been sick for three weeks with adenovirus that turned into a sinus infection."

Tisdale, who is expecting a baby with her husband, Christopher French, has been open about her challenging third trimester. In July, she expressed her frustration, saying, "This third trimester is really putting me through it."

Despite her discomfort, Tisdale remains optimistic, acknowledging that the difficulties of the last month may be a way to prepare expectant mothers for the daunting task of childbirth. "I think they make the last month this hard so your willing to throw yourself in to something that would normally be so scary but you do it anyway," she said.

Tisdale's candidness about her pregnancy journey has resonated with many fans. She has also shared her experiences with third-trimester difficulties, including acid reflux, swollen feet, and insomnia.

Tisdale is already a mother to a 3-year-old daughter, Jupiter, with French. The couple tied the knot in 2014.
