Talking about her pregnancy, the Brazilian supermodel reveals she did not gain much weight and wore 'almost the same clothes' while carrying her first child with husband Tom Brady.

Gisele Bundchen apparently managed to stay slim that she doesn't have to wear maternity clothes while she was pregnant. The supermodel recently opened up about the matter to Brazilian Folha de Sao Paulo Veja newspaper. As translated by New York Magazine, she gushed, "I gained a little, but I kept using almost the same clothes, with minor adjustments to close in the belly."

"I kept myself in good shape throughout the pregnancy, feeding on a healthy diet, meditating and doing exercises such as yoga and kung-fu," the 29-year-old further shared her secret. The wife of quarterback Tom Brady also talked about her helping hands. "At the moment I have no nanny, but my mother stayed with me since before the birth of Benjamin," she stated. "I could not ask God for better support than this."

During the interview, the new mom also noted that she hasn't done any exercise since giving birth to Benjamin on December 8, 2009. "I have not had time to return to exercise. In the first months it's all about the baby. But little by little I recovered the form," the ex-girlfriend of Leonardo DiCaprio further added. "It helps that I have not gained much, have had natural childbirth and breastfeeding."

Since having her first baby, Gisele Bundchen does not really have time to rest. "I have not slept much. In these first months, the baby usually nurses every two hours or three hours," the model who posed for Brazilian fashion line Colcci just six and a half weeks after she gave birth said. "It is quite tiring, but it is such a special moment, I'm enjoying it the most. I have dedicated my time entirely to him."

Gisele Bundchen gave birth to her first child, Benjamin, at Brigham and Women's Hospital. She was, at the time, accompanied by her twin sister Patricia and mother Vania. Her husband Tom informed the blessed event on December 9 at Gillette Stadium, saying "It went great. I didn't get much sleep, but I think that's most of us around here this time of year. I think everyone is doing well."
