Am I the only person shocked that Jessica is a May mom-to-be?

When is she due??? I may get slammed for saying this but... Honestly, with as big as she is I thought she would have given birth already. I guess that is what fried chicken for breakfast will do to you... I wonder how much weight she had gained... I'm glad that I have eaten healthy and given into good cravings instead of bad ones.

Luvmy2sons · April 2012

Just lurking, but I think she just gained quite a bit of weight, and she has extra fluid. Hense why she's so big. I figured she was end of April/May.

joshandpanda · April 2012

Wow, I really thought she was a late March, or April Mom-to-be... crazy!

hoping4sticky · April 2012

No, that is crazy. I know that I hate it when people ask me, but seriously that pic in the link you posted was from the end of March, she could not have been more than 36 weeks, um yeah she looks like she is having twins. Yep, said it.

I know she is short, but wowza, at least she is making me feel better about myself.

bornmommy · April 2012

I thought she had her baby already...some magazine cover read something about her "dramatic birth." I didn't pick it up but I thought that was the announcement... guess not!

FroggyFarts · April 2012

Has her actual due date ever been announced? I was due on April 28th and am now moving into May territory. There is a chance that she's just going late too.

I can't get down on her appearance. I think she wears unflattering clothing which makes her look that much bigger. Also, I've started to get some pretty ugly swelling and water retention in the last few weeks which makes me appear larger. She looks like she's dealing with the same thing to an extent.

JulesFo · April 2012

That poor, poor girl!!

Sugar Doll · April 2012

Oh seriously? I thought her due date was April 20th? WOW

MrsRoberts920 · April 2012

I'm actually really happy to FINALLY see a celebrity who has gained more than 10 pounds during their pregnancy. For me, it's nice to see her and think "see, it's okay if I gain weight... I'm pregnant!". I think it's refreshing that she's not trying to be a crazy skinny pregnant celebrity just because that's what she's "supposed" to be. More power to her! Big Smile

gervaisj6 · April 2012

Bless her heart... : )

rubber_chicken · April 2012

I am NOT a fan of hers, but I have to say, it's refreshing to see a pregnant "celebrity" who looks pregnant with a baby instead of a burrito lunch. For all we complain about people commenting on our size, it's pretty bitchy to turn around and do the same to another woman.

lisa5ny · April 2012

I had read that her due date was April 20th....so I guess shes overdue.

smacb · April 2012

I feel bad for her for all of the heat she's getting. She doesn't make the best fashion choices, butit's hard to tell how much she's gained, how much is swelling, etc. I agree it's nice to see a celebrity who didn't starve themselves while pregnant.

wheelsonthebus · April 2012

I had always thought she was due in March. Then, that month came and went and I thought for sure April....

bennysmommy717 · April 2012

I read she signed a 5 million dollar deal with Weight watchers to be their spoke person after she loses the baby weight. I probably would of gained a ton of weight too knowing people would be making my food and I had a trainer LOL.

Ok honestly her size being attributed to excess amniotic fluid is ridiculous. I had comments from three doctors on my amniotic fluid level which was craaazzzyyyy high. I looked nothing like her....it's more than the fluid she claims,

annemannal · April 2012

I totally agree with all the PP about how nice it is to see a celebrity who looks pregnant and not just like she had a big lunch...

I also would think considering her fiance is an ex-football player and she is on the short side with big boobs before pregnancy - she is just going to look more pregnant than some.

I personally am just excited to see her newborn- whenever she arrives!

That poor, poor girl!!

This! OMG bless her heart, she looks like she's gained 70-80lbs. She has to be getting some crazy stretch marks!!

It think her BB's being so giant has a lot to do with how heavy she looks, but DAMN GIRL! This makes me feel better about how well I've kept myself in check for this pregnancy--I bet she will have a hard time getting that off afterward.

I agree!!!

She looks like crap, but I guarantee you she knows it. Haven't we all indulged and wore unflattering outfits from time to time?

Thank goodness there were no paparazzi when I left my house this am!

PotomacSt · April 2012

I was thinking the same thing.... and extra amniotic fluid does NOT make you gain weight in places like your upper arms.

So she and I must be due within about a week of each other... what's really weird to me is that when she announced her pregnancy on Oct 31, she already looked like I did in January or February. And I'm an inch shorter than her, so I don't by the height excuse. Nor do I buy the "I got knocked up by a baller so it's a big baby" excuse, my husband is 6 foot 7 and 300 lbs and being pregnant with his child did not make me huge.

I think she'd get less crap if she'd just come out and say "Eh, I gained a lot of weight, but I'm enjoying indulging in the extra calories, my doctor says I'm fine, and I'll just work hard to lose it afterwards", A lot of women could relate to that. Instead, she's just constantly saying things like "Oh, it's excess fluid", "it's a big baby", and "I've only gained 35 lbs". Or say nothing at all instead of making those excuses. She makes it easy to pick on her when she makes excuses that are totally bogus.

mamathompson7 · April 2012

I was seriously not ragging on her, people all handle it differently. I was just shocked that she is still pregnant. People knew she was pregnant WAY before she announced it in October b/c she was obviously showing way before then. I figured that when people started noticing the bump it was about 12 weeks or so, and then when she announced it on Halloween, that maybe she was halfway through. She must have popped instantly!

Either way, fan or not, I am excited to see her adorable baby!

Her " dramatic birth" was that she was freaking over having a natural delivery after watching what her sister went through or something...so she was a complete mess and has opted for a planned elective c-section...." too posh to push". I read it in the check out line last week...lol. I believe the article even said she as due in May.

tootsie0309 · April 2012

They were talking about her on the show "The TAlk" today about how she is 9 days over due so not all the gossip mags are right

I agree with this entire post. My friend and I have been watching her the whole way through along with my pregnancy. I find it annoying and ridculous that she has to use the excess water etc. excuses. Just say you've been enjoying all aspects of pregnancy including having a few extra goodies. I don't see what the big deal in saying that is and "normal" people can relate to that more.
