And friends reveal the actress - who has confirmed she will be leaving her role in Shrek the Musical two months early - is already taking it easy.
'Amanda was adamant they would try again after the tragedy of losing their little boy, and doctors will be keeping an extremely close eye on her,' the pal revealed. 'She is under the best possible medical care.'
Following Amanda's news, it was announced that Girl Aloud Kimberley Walsh will step into Amanda's shoes as Princess Fiona in the West End musical.
