Heavily pregnant Valerie Adams-Price has tweeted about her shopping trip for her expected baby.

Images showed the  32-year-old Olympic medallist was helped at The Shopping Factory mall by staff introducing her to a pram and what appeared to be baby clothes.

The shotput queen appeared to be in high spirits and one photo showed her standing by the driver’s door of a car outside the mall smiling while the photo was taken.

Dame Adams-Price tweeted: “Hw overwhelming is shopping for a small human? I’m so grateful #thebabyfactory were able 2 ease da anxiety of dis FTM. Feels like Xmas.”

In May Dame Adams-Price revealed she was expecting a baby in October with her husband Gabriel Price.

Earlier this month she appeared in public at a funeral of an uncle in Mt Roskill.

She tweeted a photo of her with Gabriel on Tuesday saying her hubby wore the empathy belt.

“Graduated frm our  antenatal class lastnight n @GabrielMCPrice had 2 wear the empathy belt which he handled so well???#notlongtogonow ?‍?‍?”

She told the New Zealand Herald: “We couldn’t be happier. I’ve always wanted to be a mum. This is bigger for me than any gold medal.”

“Gabe and I kept it between us for a very long time. I kind of freaked out a little bit because when you find out you start reading loads of things – and your brain naturally registers all the bad stuff.”
