I work out every day. I still feel fit and energetic. In a way, I'm healthier now that I'm pregnant.

Being pregnant was a lot like being a child again. There was always someone telling you what to do.

I was so used to seeing so many women in the media flaunting their bodies 4 weeks after having a baby - and kudos to those who have genes that they can get right back into shape 2 weeks, 4 weeks after having a baby. But that never happened to me, and I remember going to my doctor asking why.

Pregnancy changed my body; it changed the way I walk.

I really do feel like I'm in better shape and look better now - even after having three kids - than I did before.

When you gain 50 pounds during pregnancy like I did, you fear that you'll never get back in shape.

I'm proof that, even after having a baby, you can look better and sexier than ever!

I thought my body was going to change so quickly with pregnancy that I'd freak out. But it was really gradual.

It's amazing, the mentality shift that occurs in pregnancy. All of a sudden you want to be good to yourself.

I stayed really physical during my pregnancy. I stuck to my normal pre-pregnancy workout, minus the stomach exercises and twisting. I really felt it helped my whole well-being.
