Melissa just announced that she's expecting her first child with hubby Tye Strickland.
"Apparently Tye and I wanted to see how many life-changing events we could fit into one calendar year," Rycroft said, while sharing her news Wednesday on People via Good Morning America.
"From getting engaged, married, new job, and we are now pregnant." The reality star also joked that right now she has a "baby pooch," though "the baby bump will come later."
Melissa and Tye said "I Do" during an intimate ceremony in Mexico in December. Congrats you two!

She said in a statement, "I am indeed recovering from a bout of the H1N1 flu virus. Like most people who become infected, I thought I had a mild case of the common flu, but when my symptoms exacerbated, I immediately went to the hospital where I was diagnosed with H1N1 and given the proper medications to cure the infection."
Melissa tells Us Weekly that her fiancé Ty Strickland’s mother, who is a nurse, encouraged her to see a doctor.
Melissa says, "I want to stress to people how easy it is to battle this flu when you take the proper steps such as seeking the care of a doctor.
"I'm a clear case that by paying diligent attention to your health, it's easy to overcome this illness and be healthy again."
We wish her the best in recovering!

Melissa's on and off boyfriend of two years, Tye Strickland, popped the question on Friday night in Dallas, and she said yes! Who said she was unlucky in love?
The newly engaged couple celebrated with 20 friends at Cretia's restaurant that night, reports Us Weekly.
"When they walked in, everybody stood up and clapped," the staffer says, adding that Rycroft looked "beaming happy."
The couple stayed at the restaurant until 2 a.m. toasting and celebrating their new engagement. Congrats to Melissa, we're so happy to see her find love again!
And a new engagement isn't the only thing Melissa is celebrating! She recently landed herself a gig on ABC's Good Morning America. She will appear on the morning show eight to 10 times this summer. And what a great summer she's already having!

Right before Melissa was set to take the stage, DWTS host Tom Bergeron announced that she was suffering from an injury, and team Mambo would have to go on without her.
"This week Melissa suffered a painful rib injury," co-host Tom Bergeron said. "Complications will prevent her from dancing tonight. She's talking with a doctor right now. It looks like she'll be able to continue in the competition."
According to doctors, she's suffering from a hairline fracture of the ribs. "I hurt my ribs last week doing a difficult move. It was feeling better and then I hurt myself again," she said.
"I felt a blinding pain shoot down my side, so we decided it would be best to go actually have a doctor check it out."
Lacey Schwimmer had to fill in for Melissa during the group dance, but her performance was not judged, instead Melissa got the same score her entire group got, which was a 25.
Luckily for Melissa, she's a fan favorite so she most likely won't be booted off this week. Reaching out to her fans, Melissa took to her facebook to address her injury:
"I was doing alright but went to the doc before dress rehearsal for some last minute treatment and ended up having a bad reaction that's affecting my breathing," she wrote. "Hopefully (fingers crossed) I'll be good tomorrow. But thank you for all the love, support and votes! We need it!"
Which team blew you away last night? team Mambo or team Tango? Who are you rooting for in the competition? Check out Lacey filling in for Melissa below...
