'So my plan is to, as long as the baby is healthy and as long as I'm doing well, then we will compete again on this season on Dancing with the Stars, which is very exciting because I love being a mom more than anything, and I also love to dance,' she said. 

'I love both. And so if I can do both, then that's what I want to do.'

'I'll actually be the first professional dancer to compete being this far along pregnant, which is scary but also exciting,' she continued. 'And I'm hoping that if everything goes well and the baby's healthy, that it’ll be a really great experience.'
