It seems theres nothing Shonda Rhimes cant do.

Actress Sarah Drew, who plays Dr. April Kepner on Rhimes hit show Greys Anatomy, said Rhimes even predicted her second pregnancy.

She wrote the pregnancy into the show before I was even pregnant. Shonda knows everything! Drew declared in the October-November issue of Fit Pregnancy.

On the show, which returns for its 11th season tonight, Drews character is expecting her first child with onscreen husband Jackson Avery, played by new dad Jesse Williams.

But off screen, she is expecting her second in December with husband Peter Lanfer, a professor at UCLA. The pair are already parents to 2-year-old son Micah Emmanuel. They are waiting to find out the sex of their second child.

Drew, 33, told Fit Pregnancy shes enjoying her second pregnancy more than the first.

The first time it wasnt just the physicality, it was the emotional weight, too, she said. I was mourning the end of a massive chapter in my life. I know that sounds weird.
