Lisa Ling
After suffering a miscarriage at seven weeks of pregnancy in 2010, Lisa Ling is excited, yet feeling cautious, about her second pregnancy. She is now in her second trimester and said she feels “lucky” to be pregnant again.
”I was trying to keep it quiet for a long time, but now I'm getting to a point where I just look like I have a beer belly,” the 39-year-old journalist told E! Online. ”So I figured, I better share it publicly before people actually think I have this beer belly.”
Ling, who is married to Dr. Paul Song, said she has made some lifestyle changes since she has become pregnant. “I’ve just been trying to be very, very cautious about everything… with diet, with exercise,” she said.
One perk she is loving about being pregnant? ”My boobs are enormous!” she said.
She recently appeared on Anderson Cooper's talk show and showed off her ultrasound and shared the news that she is expecting a girl!
Congratulations Lisa!

Lily Allen
Singer Lily Allen took her baby bump on a babymoon in Marrakech, Morocco with her husband Sam Cooper and their daughter, 1-year-old Ethel.
Like Lisa Ling, Allen has also suffered miscarriages in the past, including one in 2010 when she was six months along. The ”Smile” singer seems to be doing well with this pregnancy — and is due next month!
Allen, 27, kept her look casual as she wore blue sweatpants and a gray tank top as they strolled near their resort.
It sounds like the singer is having trouble finding the best way to dress her new pregnancy curves. “Hmmm.... What to wear today, or ahem, how to hide my shameful baby bump,” Allen tweeted. “Who does the best maternity tights please ? Not m+s or topshop.”

Jennifer Nettles
Sugarland singer Jennifer Nettles showed off her baby bump in a sequin gown as she performed with Lady Antebellum at the 2012 CMA Country Christmas concert, which will air on TV next month.
Netttles, who is expecting her baby this month, told Good Day LA that she was “emotional and hormonal” the first three months of pregnancy while filming Duets.
“I cried all the time,” she said. “I cried on the show. I begged the producers, I was like, ‘Please don’t make me that girl.’ And they didn’t know why, obviously. I mean, I am sensitive... I would cry at Olympics commercials and ridiculous things.”
Nettles also shared her pregnancy cravings. “I crave Mexican food… Anything salsa, spicy, I love that. Anything vinegar-y or tart, I love that. I’m pretty much a free-for-all at this point.” Not on her list? Sweets! “It’s not my main craving, which is interesting, because I normally have a big sweet tooth,” she shared.

Amber Rose
Pregnant Amber Rose wore a black skin-tight leotard and black sneakers as she left The Cheesecake Factory on November 10. The 29-year-old is expecting her first child with rapper Wiz Khalifa, who she recently tweeted is going on tour.
”Daddy is leaving for tour this morning 4 two months...... I'm so sad ,” she tweeted. ”I wish I could go with him but there’s too much smoke at his concerts for me and our Lil Wizbud. But I have u guys to keep me company.”
Rose knows the sex of the baby — but prefers to keep the gender a secret until after the baby is born. She did, however, tell XXL magazine she plans on having an all-natural childbirth.
“I’ve decided I’m going to have an all-natural water birth. No medicine. I want those bragging rights. The next time Wiz has a stomach ache or anything, I’ll say, ’I popped out a baby all-natural.’“

Actor Chad Lowe and his pregnant wife Kim brought their 3-1/2-year-old daughter Mabel to the premiere of Disney’s Sofia the First on Saturday. The actor told People.com that his baby is due this week!
“I’m trying to bank some sleeping hours, which is a little tough,” he said. “I have been out buying a lot of stuff to organize [everything] we have. It is amazing how much stuff babies need. It is incredible.”
He said that he and his wife have talked to their daughter about having a new little brother or sister.
We’ve been introducing her to the concept and she seems to be very excited,” Lowe says. “She knows she’s got a big job and a lot of things to teach her sibling.”
