Wow, I think the idea of someone wanting to "smack her [pregnant JLo] in the head then run backwards and watch her have a heart attack while she lumbers towards me" is probably the most disturbing thing I've heard in years. She's PREGNANT WITH TWINS for god's sake. Where do these people come from? They too were carried in a woman's womb for nine months and she probably looked pretty big too. That's how pregnancy works.
In fact, I think a lot of the celebrities who are pregnant finally look a healthy size (if they weren't even pregnant) when they are in their second trimesters. They suddenly have real curves and a womanly appearance.

Heh don't even read What Would Tyler Durden Do. All that dude does is call people fat as an insult, especially if they're pregnant. I always tell myself I'm not going to go back there but then I forget and go and just feel like ugh why did I do that it just makes me sick and like, greasy. It's the blog equivalent of eating McDonalds.

I'm not surprised. There were horrible comments thrown at Salma Hayek when she was pregnant (along the lines of "she used to be hot...now she's just another fat Mexican chick" -- hat trick! Sizeim, sexism and racism. Nice.)

In a recent People magazine feature on celebrity moms, they did a piece on Samantha Harris, from Dancing with the Stars. They/she made sure to mention that 1) she can already fit back into her size 27 jeans and 2) she only gained 20 pounds during her pregnancy.

I don't think she endangered herself or her baby -- she worked out a lot before pregnancy, and just continued to work out througout. And there is no reason to believe she starved herself (just ate very healthy foods and watched intake). But it bugs a lot that People/society glorify this phenomenon -- because that's what it is. Some women gain more weight, for a plethora of reasons. Period. It doesn't mean they're fat, lumbering (HATE that expression) cows. It means they're carrying a child who needs nourishment. And the body prepares for pregnancy and eventual labor by, well, getting bigger.
