Lately it seems everywhere I look there is an article about Hilary Duff’s pregnancy weight gain.  Critics claim she should be losing it faster or should not have gained so much to begin with.  It makes me livid.  She had her baby less than three months ago for heaven’s sake!

I was so sleep deprived in those first few months that I couldn’t even think of losing the weight until my son was 7 months old.  I don’t care if Beyonce (or any of the other celeb moms)  lost their weight in mere weeks.  Being beautifully fit immediately after birth is not an indicator of good mothering or supermomdom (in my opinion).

Each of us has our own journey and I applaud Hillary Duff for being able to take the pressure in stride.  It is a joy to see a celeb mom who is not afraid to be a mere mortal.

Hilary, I think you are fabulous, and beautiful and Luca is a lucky little guy.  I hope you are singing to him!  Welcome to the journey of motherhood.
