Celebity Mama-to-be: Jennifer Love Hewitt

The 34-year-old actress is expecting her first child with her former co-star of The Client List, Colin Egglesfield. She’s keeping a cool mindset and a positive outlook on motherhood, saying she’s going to take on a “zen” approach to parenting her child.

The expecting mom told Us Weekly, “I think most people, when they’re getting ready to be a mom, they go, ‘Oh my gosh, I have to have all of the answers right now,’ but every kid is different, every parent is different and every child and parent relationship is different, so you just sort of have to wait until you’re in it and do the best that you can to try to be Zen in the middle of it all.”

Jennifer Love Hewitt has also been keeping herself healthy and fit during her pregnancy by working with a trainer with regime that includes Pilates and yoga. She says that exercise is the secret to her stress-free pregnancy and that the cardio and weight training are “so my arms are strong to hold the baby”.
