Actress Anne Hathaway took to Instagram on Wednesday, July 24th to share that she’s pregnant with her second baby!

The 36-year-old actress shared a black and white mirror selfie of herself with a budding baby bump. She captioned the photo by writing jokingly, “It’s not for a movie…⁣⁣#2⁣.”

On a more serious note, she also added a few words of support to women struggling with infertility. “All kidding aside, for everyone going through infertility and conception hell, please know it was not a straight line to either of my pregnancies,” she said. “Sending you extra love.”

Hathaway and her husband Adam Shulman had their first child named Jonathan in 2016. Since then, Hathaway has been an avid advocate for women and the pressure they feel during, before and after pregnancy. After Hathaway gave birth to her son, the Oscar-winner spoke out. “Love what you have been given,” she captioned a photo of her jeans. “There is no shame in gaining weight during pregnancy (or ever). There is no shame if it takes longer than you think it will to lose the weight (if you want to lose it at all). There is no shame in finally breaking down and making your own jean shorts because last summer’s are just too dang short for this summer’s thighs. Bodies change. Bodies grow. Bodies shrink. It’s all love (don’t let anyone tell you otherwise).”
