“I wasn’t sure how I’d look as I got bigger, but pregnancy makes me feel so pretty,” she told Fit Pregnancy magazine at the time. “Michael says he’s put on eight pounds of sympathy weight, but I think it’s more like ten.”

She also revealed that she’s heading back to work soon after giving birth. “It’s hard, but I’ve just had to suck it up. I’ve told my management that six weeks after the baby is born, I’ll be ready to go back on the road. Mama’s gotta work,” she said. “I just hope my daughter forgives me for all the things I get wrong along the way!”
