Jessica and her husband, Cash Warren, are pregnant with their second child and, so far, the pregnancy has been a lot smoother than the first!
“Every moment was so new and kind of terrifying and now I know what to expect,” Jessica told Latina magazine. “It’s like, ‘It’s fine, I’ve been there before.’ With Honor, I was constantly like, ‘Is she moving? Is her heart beating?’ I’d worry about everything, and with this baby, I don’t have the same anxieties.”

But Jessica's cravings have been similar to her first pregnancy!
“Sometimes you can’t get a food out of your mind,” she explained. “I could always eat watermelon. With Honor, I loved fruit, too. It’s a decent craving. You still eat cheeseburgers and pickles — you just want watermelon really bad. I don’t deprive myself of anything. I eat whatever.”

But she is trying to stick to a workout routine.
“I’d like to still do something five days a week, from a half hour to an hour — nothing excessive, just some moving around," Jessica said. "It makes the whole pregnancy so much easier. The more fit you are, the easier the birth is, and a healthier baby you’re going to have."
