Jessica Alba: Pregnancy isn’t sexy

(Cover) - Jessica Alba says pregnancy is “grounding” not “sexy”.
The 29-year-old actress recently revealed she is expecting her second child with husband Cash Warren. Jessica is experiencing a “good” pregnancy so far but insists she doesn’t feel as glowing about her appearance. However, the star says the experience makes her feel more attached to other females and aware of the planet.
“I just don’t associate being pregnant with being sexy,” she told People. “I think being pregnant is grounding and you feel like part of the earth and connected with women. It’s not a sex thing to me. It’s a grounding, maternal thing.”
Jessica, who already has two-year-old daughter Honor Marie, went on to reveal she will be keeping the sex of the baby a secret. The actress and her husband will know if they are having a boy or a girl, but want to keep it a surprise for everyone else.
“We’re going to find out, but we probably won’t announce it. We did the same with Honor,” she explained. “She is going to be a very attentive big sister.”
Jessica says Cash has been “supportive, most loving and caring” during her second pregnancy and she has found it easier than the first time she was expecting a baby.
 
The beauty believes the secret to parenting is not to put yourself under pressure to be perfect and to do the best for your children.
“[Expecting your second child] is less overwhelming and less daunting, for sure,” she added. “You accept that you’re going to make mistakes, that you’re going to try your hardest and you’ll love them with your everything. That’s all you can do.” © Cover Media
