Soccer star Alex Morgan shares heartfelt hopes for her unborn daughter
U.S. Women's National Team co-captain Alex Morgan is due in April.
Soccer star Alex Morgan has won big both on and off the field.
Morgan, a member of the World Cup-winning U.S. Women's National Team, is expecting her first child -- a daughter -- this year, and said that while she's enjoyed her pregnancy, "I am ready for her to come out soon!"
Morgan's due date is in April.
"Taking a step back from soccer is a little different for me, but I am enjoying it," Morgan told "Good Morning America." "I hope that she's born into a world that she can accomplish much bigger and better things that I'm ever capable of."
Morgan, 30, and her husband, fellow soccer player Servando Carrasco, 32, married in 2014 and announced last October that they were expecting a baby girl. In her interview with "GMA," which took place at the Polka Dot Summit -- an event in Burbank, California, focused on positivity, presented by Create and Cultivate and Disney -- Morgan said that family has always been important to her.
"I think I have a pretty positive mindset because of my family. I just have a huge support system, which keeps me going. It keeps me motivated and, in turn, keeps me positive," she said.
