It was love at first sight for Elisabeth Röhm and her fiancé Ron Anthony.

“We met because he is a fashion designer … I was borrowing clothes for an event, he measured my thigh and that was it,” laughs the actress, 37, in Playground‘s November/December issue.

Eventually giving birth to the couple’s now 2½-year-old daughter Easton August, Röhm has nothing but sweet memories of her pregnancy days — literally!

“I was a ripe 200 pounds when I gave birth to Easton. I dove into a pint of ice-cream every night, I will admit,” she shares.

“I have to say, I was the happiest pregnant person. I was not moody, was not crazy; I was relaxed and happy.”

Pregnant Miranda Kerr Bares All

Patrick Demarchelier

Pregnancy never looked sexier.

Miranda Kerr has struck many a pose during her career, but the Aussie bombshell debuted a decidedly more maternal look for December’s W magazine.

The model — who’s seven months along — bared her breasts and belly for famed photographer Patrick Demarchelier in the magazine’s family issue.

“For me, family is life,” Kerr, who wed Orlando Bloom in July, explains. “The decision to start one wasn’t complex at all.”

Save Space (and Money!) with Fisher-Price’s EZ Bundle System

A new baby means lots of gear. That’s why we love Fisher-Price‘s new EZ Bundle ($150). Not only is it versatile (it’s an infant seat, swing, high chair and toddler seat — all-in-one!), but it’s cinch to transform.

As your tot grows, you can let them catch some zzzzs in the 3-point harness infant seat, rock in the swing at up to six different speeds, eat in the high chair and relax in the toddler seat. Talk about money well spent!

Added bonus: The seat is padded and stain resistant. Get more information at FisherPrice.com.
