The mother-to-be discussed her reasonings as to why she holds her belly often, saying "Because I feel like I have this special connection with my son.. every move he makes ..when his little head or butt are sticking out and I feel lopsided." Deena and her husband Chris Brucker first broke the news that they are expecting a boy back in July.
