Kristin Cavallari expected life as a new mom to be anxiety-filled and constant worry.
But the 25-year-old reality star, who welcomed baby boy Camden Jack in August, says that parenting has "felt very natural to me" as she was expecting to be "a little more neurotic and worrisome."

"I set myself up for postpartum to be incredibly difficult and thought I would be walking around like a zombie," Kristin told Parenting magazine.
"I actually had this adrenaline the first few weeks, which made me not need much sleep. Every time I tried to nap during the day I wasn't able to."
Kristin is raising her son with fiancé Jay Cutler who she say has been very supportive.

"You just have to go into it knowing you won't be getting much sleep and there will be hard times, but try to get help from family and friends," the former Hills star shared.
"Don't plan on doing anything else those first few weeks."
But Kristin says that the hard work is "all worth it" when she sees how happy her baby is.

"When you get that first smile from your baby, your heart will melt and you'll say that you would do it all again," Kristen gushed.
Kristin has been one of the lucky "freak of nature" celebrity moms who has snapped back into shape pretty quickly but says she's more than happy to get pregnant again soon as she wants her kids to be close in age.
