The work-home division is a difficult conundrum for many new moms, but former Bachelorette Ashley Hebert Rosenbaum has found “the most perfect balance” between the two.

Jaime King: I Understand the ‘Body Shame’ Pregnant Moms Face

07/10/2015 at 10:00 PM ET

Jaime King is definitely proud of her baby bump — the star has been actively showing off her bare belly during her second pregnancy.

Despite her comfort, however, the actress knows what it’s like to face body shame.

“People have made comments about how I’m too thin and need to eat a sandwich,” says King in the August issue of American Baby.

“I’ve seen it happen with other pregnant women in this business too — we’re either too thin or put on too much weight. But every woman’s body is different … all that matters is that you’re taking care of the nutrition for yourself and your child.”

CaCee Cobb is on a mission. To lose baby weight, that is.

Just a few months after welcoming daughter Wilder Frances with husband Donald Faison in April, Cobb made a declaration on Instagram this week (hashtag and all!) that she is embarking on a weight-loss journey — complete with hiking, biking and healthy eating.

The mom of two, 37, kicked off her posts with a scenic picture of a sunny outdoor trail, captioning the photo, “Mission #LoseBabyWeight has begun!”

The next day, Cobb shared a sweaty snapshot of herself post–cycling class, writing, “Found a spin spot in walking distance from my house … oh lucky me.”

She has also been applying the golden rule of weight loss, pairing a healthy diet with her busy exercise regimen. But her breakup with carbs may not have been easy, the most recent photo from her mommy mission suggests.

Ah, sisters. So much love … and so much drama!

Alyson Hannigan says her girls Satyana Marie, 6, and Keeva Jane, 3, are total buddies. Well, except for the occasional standoffs.

“They are so lovely, they are such great friends and they love each other so much,” the How I Met Your Mother actress, 41, tells PEOPLE. “Obviously they have their moments where they need space or a nap. But they really are just such good friends and they’re so funny.”

Recently, though, they had a video-worthy moment.

“There was an argument going on that was so cute I had to record it,” Hannigan recalls. “It started with Saty wanting to play with Keeva, and Keeva wanted to have some alone playtime. And it got to a point where they’re both crying, and Saty is like, ‘But I want to play with you!’ And Keeva’s like, ‘But I want alone time!’ And it was just such a cute argument that I’m like, I’ve got to record this because they need to see it in 10 years.”
