Jewel loves being pregnant!
The superstar is expecting her baby boy with husband Ty Murray any day now and insists she won’t freak out about losing her baby weight when it’s all over.
“I’m feeling really great and enjoying pregnancy much more than I thought I would,” she told Fit Pregnancy.
“I didn’t know what to expect, every woman is different and you hear such horror stories. But I also heard that you should try to enjoy it, so I took that to heart and tried not to fret about weight gain or anything else.
“Pregnancy is a privilege, and I feel lucky that I get to do it. It’s kind of sad that men don’t.
“Well, you’re supposed to gain up to 35 pounds, and now I’m at 30 weeks and I’ve gained 30 pounds.
“The first several months I hardly gained anything, then it happened fast. I don’t know how I could control that I have a healthy diet, I don’t eat sugar. I think your body has its own wisdom and as long as you are doing the best you can, you just have to find a balance.”
“As far as losing the weight, I’m hoping that breastfeeding does the job, but I won’t be neurotic about it, about working out right away,” she adds. “I am capable of that but I’m going to cut myself lots of slack. I want to give myself time to rest and heal and tend to my new baby for a month or so, and then I will definitely get back into a workout routine.”
