"I would forget I was pregnant, it was so easy. I didn't have any morning sickness, no cravings either. I just thought, 'Oh, well, we'll wait until it'll tell on itself.' I didn't show until I was seven months so that made it easy right there."
Talking about her recovery after delivering the baby via C-section on August 10, Jennifer explained, "Everybody told me how much it was going to hurt afterwards but I think I have a different tolerance for pain than others." Furthermore, she told , "By that night after I had the baby, I'm like, 'Look, I can't sit in this bed anymore. I've got to get up!' I've been up and about since he was born. To me, the pain is no different than when you work out a muscle you've never worked out before and it's sore."
