Due this summer with her second child, actress Jennifer Love Hewitt revealed one of her big pregnancy tips: indulge a little.
“You have nine months to enjoy,” she told Entertainment Tonight. “Don’t go crazy because it is really hard for it to come off afterwards. It doesn’t happen in two seconds like it looks like in Hollywood.”
It’s not very often you hear Hollywood stars admit to stuffing their face with junk food. But, along with her cravings for Ralph’s ice cream, Hewitt said she works out five times a week and is an avid swimmer.
“It’s really good for swelling,” she said of swimming. “I would say that is a definite thing that first-time pregnant moms should do.”
Similarly to Kelly Rowland, who spoke with LittleThings about her experience as a first-time mom, Hewitt revealed how much it’s changed her perception. The actress, who is the face of Palmer’s pregnancy products, welcomed daughter Autumn James with husband Brian Hallisay in November 2013.
“I think [as a mom] you just realize how unimportant stuff is,” she told People. “Everything before you have kids is oh-so important and then you have kids and you’re like, ‘That really doesn’t mean anything. My kid is healthy, there’s no sniffles, they’re sleeping, life is good!’ It really puts that into perspective.”
