Jessica Simpson knows exactly why she gained the weight she did while pregnant with her daughter Maxwell Drew.

“I let myself indulge in everything I wanted because it was the first time I was ever pregnant, and I wanted to enjoy it,” Simpson, 32, tells USA Today.

That included one of her faves, macaroni and cheese. But Simpson didn’t quite understand how the indulgence would affect her post-baby body. “I didn’t realize [the weight] didn’t all come off with the baby,” says Simpson.

She’s now given up many of those foods, however, while doing Weight Watchers as the company’s newest spokeswoman — she appears in the ads next week.

Roselyn Sánchez isn’t wasting any time bouncing back after baby.

The actress and her husband, actor Eric Winter welcomed their first child — daughter Sebella Rose — seven weeks ago and the new mom has already shed much of her pregnancy weight.

“Breastfeeding [helps], I think,” the Act of Valor star, 38, tells Access Hollywood Live of her rapid weight loss.

But, until she is able to lose the remaining extra pounds, Sánchez reveals she’s been receiving a bit of assistance in the wardrobe department.

“I do have a little [belly]. I’m just hiding it with Spanx,” she laughs. “I had to do it. I put my dress on and I’m going, ‘You know what, no. I need to use the Spanx!’”

She’s back.

A month after welcoming daughter Blue Ivy Carter, Beyoncé cut an enviable-as-ever figure late Monday night in New York.

Celebrating husband Jay-Z‘s double concert dates at Carnegie Hall, the new mom, 30, made her first public appearance in an orange, hip-hugging Alice Temperly dress – and a pair of towering Christian Louboutins, no less – that showed off her post-baby bod.

“It was amazing,” she told New York’s Daily News Monday night of her husband’s debut show (benefiting his Shawn Carter Scholarship Foundation and the United Way), which included an emotional performance of the song that features his newborn.

Make no Bones about it — Emily Deschanel looks amazing after welcoming 3-month-old son Henry.

At Sunday’s Golden Globes, the new mom hit the red carpet in a draped midnight blue Max Azria gown while on the arm of equally-stunning sister Zooey Deschanel.

She complemented her dress with Stella McCartney black pumps, a Jimmy Choo clutch and Bulgari jewels.

And although Emily looked completely at ease while posing for photos, she admits the evening began with a rough start.

If this is what staying Up All Night looks like, we’re jealous.

Maya Rudolph, who welcomed her third child (a son name Jack!) last July, attended the NBC Universal All-Star Party last Friday and the new mom looked stunning.

The actress wore a black shift with white trim paired with a ruffled vest, a STARK clutch and platform heels.

Along with her chic body after baby style, Rudolph is also becoming quite the expert at motherhood.

“I’m a little bit of a pro. The stuff that I used to fear and used to worry about is so different, like the first time I brought my daughter home from the hospital,” the actress shared recently.

Wow, that was fast!

Ten days after welcoming daughter Willa Lou, a smiling Keri Russell gives us a glimpse at her slender post-baby body in an all-denim ensemble while leaving her Brooklyn home with husband Shane Deary and their kids on Friday in New York.

We think the new mom-of-two looks amazing!

“Everyone’s happy and healthy,” the actress’s rep says of their new addition, who joins big brother River, 4½.
