"In the beginning you're really worried -- the Internet is your best friend and your worst enemy because it can totally freak you out. Doctor Google is not great -- your real doctor is much better.

"Don't do any deep twisting when you're pregnant. I also decided to stop doing core work early on, mostly for my safety. In the beginning, you're not going to hurt your baby doing core work, but you want to make sure that your stomach muscles are relaxed, and I had very tight stomach muscles. You don't want your stomach to eventually split, which is common in pregnancy if you continue to do core work."

"You have to understand that your body is going to get bigger when you're pregnant. And there are going to be aches; there are going to be pains. But you're creating life."

"Soaps can be so drying, which is why I've been using Olay Ultra Moisture Body Wash. It's is a product I found during pregnancy, and it's been incredible. Don't ever dry out your skin."
