“I’ve been manifesting this,” the host told PEOPLE as she exclusively shared the news of her pregnancy. “I’ve been very open about wanting to have a third. Just before I found out I told friends at lunch ‘I really feel like things are starting to clear out to allow me to welcome the blessing.’ "
She shared that someGMAviewers were actually the first to suspect she was expecting — even before she or her husband, whose name she chooses to keep private, were aware.
“The Saturday before I found out there were two different viewers who commented in places and were like ‘Hey, is Janai pregnant?’ " Norman said. “And even that day that I found out I posted a picture that said ‘Caption this’ and somebody said ‘Surprise pregnancy’. I don’t know what it is but some viewers just know, so I’m excited to confirm.”
During the early stages of her pregnancy — when she spoke to PEOPLE in April, she was at 10 weeks — she shared she was facing “more nausea, more moodiness, more sleepiness” compared to her two previous pregnancies, but luckily, the morning sickness was hitting her in the evening rather than at night.
“I’m still waking up bright eyed and bushy-tailed,” the morning news anchor said.
Norman added of her husband of five years, “He’s excited. It’s fun watching our family grow together.”
