It's about to be a party of five in Milla Jovovich's home!

The 43-year-old actress and model is "knocked up again," as she so eloquently (and cheekily) put it on social media. The Resident Evil star shared the exciting news on Wednesday and showed off her growing baby bump on Instagram.

In her post, she opened up about the roller-coaster of emotions she felt after learning about her pregnancy, which comes nearly two years after she underwent an emergency abortion.

"After I found out I was pregnant 13 weeks ago, I had a mixture of feelings ranging between complete joy and utter terror," the Hellboy actress wrote on Wednesday. "Because of my age and losing the last pregnancy I didn't want to get attached to this potential baby too quickly."

She continued, "That was obviously not fun and the last few months have been my family and I living on pins and needles waiting for a slew of different test results to come in and spending most of our time in doctors offices."

Thankfully, Milla explained that she was "in the clear" and is being "blessed with another girl." Closing her heartwarming announcement, she wrote, "Wish me and my baby luck! I send you all a lot of love and I'll keep you posted on my progression! Xoxo"

This marks the model's third child with husband and film director, Paul W. S. Anderson. The longtime couple shares two daughters—Ever Gabo Anderson, 11, and Dashiel Edan Anderson, 4. And from the looks of it, the 54-year-old director will continue to be the man of the house!
