People.com Celebrity Parents Jessica Alba Doesn't Have 'Same Anxieties' with Second Pregnancy "Maybe it's because my body hormonally has already been through it, so I'm not being broken in," the actress - who is expecting her second child with husband Cash Warren this fall - tells Latina. By Staff Author Updated on December 2, 2020 01:33 PM Share Tweet Pin Email Jessica Alba is experiencing pregnancy through a whole new set of eyes. “Maybe it’s because my body hormonally has already been through it, so I’m not being broken in,” the actress — who is expecting her second child with husband Cash Warren this fall — tells Latina. “My body knows what to do. It’s not as daunting.” Admittedly in constant fear while carrying her first child Honor Marie, now 2½, the Spy Kids: All the Time in the World star isn’t sweating the small stuff anymore. “Every moment was so new and kind of terrifying and now I know what to expect,” she says. “With Honor, I was constantly like, ‘Is she moving? Is her heart beating?’ I’d worry about everything and with this baby, I don’t have the same anxieties.” However, while she may have chosen a lighter exercise routine than she had while pregnant with Honor, Alba isn’t giving up on working out completely. “I’d like to still do something five days a week, from a half hour to an hour — nothing excessive, just some moving [around],” she explains. “It makes the whole pregnancy so much easier. The more fit you are, the easier the birth is, and a healthier baby you’re going to have.” The same applies to eating healthy, Alba notes, but adds she is known to indulge in each and every craving. “Sometimes you can’t get a food out of your mind. I could always eat watermelon. With Honor, I loved fruit, too. It’s a decent craving,” she shares. “You still eat cheeseburgers and pickles — you just want watermelon really bad. I don’t deprive myself of anything. I eat whatever.” — Anya Leon Related Articles Jessica Alba Celebrates Daughter Honor's 14th Birthday with Sweet Montage: 'Where Did the Time Go?'
