Maggie Gyllenhaal calls erroneous reports of her postpartum weight-loss 'stupid,' 'unhelpful'

Missy — Mon, 09 Jul 2007 09:17:54 +0000

Motherhood has changed Maggie Gyllenhaal’s life "in the most incredible way," she recently said. 9-month-old Ramona, Maggie’s daughter with fiance Peter Sarsgaard, has also made big changes in her mom’s wardrobe. On a recent trip to Paris Maggie said she purchased "all these beautiful clothes."

But it was right before my daughter started eating solids, and I didn’t realize how messy that would be. Now I know I have to lay off the cream silk blouses for a while.

The pressure to return to her pre-baby body has not been lost on Maggie, but the 29-year-old actress said that she doesn’t feel it enough "to change what I’m doing very much." Furthermore, reports that she’d shed the baby weight quickly were labeled "totally ridiculous" by Maggie.

I was really shocked that they would write that. At that point I was 25 or 30 lbs heavier than I had been before I got pregnant. I had literally just given birth! It’s so unhelpful to everybody, to print stupid stuff like that.

Maggie Gyllenhaal: Recent "controversy" over her public breastfeeding has obviously not affected her

Natalie — Wed, 06 Jun 2007 08:30:11 +0000

Maggie Gyllenhaal went out for coffee and with her friends and breastfed daughter Ramona Sarsgaard, 8 months, outside of the West Village cafe, Bonsignor. If she’s even aware of the recent "controversy" over her public breastfeeding, it obviously has not affected her!

It’s interesting to see her top-of-the-shirt method- I’ve only done this when I wear a nursing tank. Do you nurse from the neckline or the shirt hem?

Please note: We already had the whole "should she or shouldn’t she" discussion about nursing in public and whether or not Maggie should use a nursing cover. Unless you have something positive to add, please do not post a negative comment or say that Maggie should cover up — it won’t be published because it’s not constructive or productive AND it was all said before.

Ramona is wearing Kinderware’s Infant Gripper Socks in pink ($24 for 7 pairs).

In other photos, Maggie has a Bugaboo Cameleon in grey with blue fabric ($899) topped with a breezy sun canopy in blue ($40) parked in front of her.

She has a Not Rational Fab diaper bag ($517).

Maggie Gyllenhaal and Ramona Sarsgaard out Friday evening, nurse in public

Sarah — Sat, 05 May 2007 05:47:21 +0000

Actress Maggie Gyllenhaal, 29, took a walk down by the Hudson River on Friday evening with daughter Ramona, 7 months, and friends, stopping to nurse and feed their children dinner in a nearby park. Ramona rides in a Silver Cross Linear Freeway single stroller in Salsa ($600).

Note from Danielle: There has been a little controversy over the photo of Maggie breastfeeding Ramona. Some people have felt that it was intrusive of paparazzi to photograph her nursing Ramona, while others interpreted Maggie’s nursing in public (aka NIP) as a sign that she didn’t mind being photographed doing something completely normal and natural. Just a few people were bothered that Maggie didn’t cover up more. The majority of feedback we’ve received on this photo is wonderfully positive. However, on other sites (aside from Mothering and TheBabyWearer), it’s the opposite.

Peter Sarsgaard, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Ramona take a walk in snowy NYC

cbbauthor — Thu, 08 Mar 2007 05:40:00 +0000

Peter Sarsgaard and Maggie Gyllenhaal headed out for a snowy walk in NYC on Wednesday. Daddy, Peter, pushes baby Ramona Sarsgaard, 5 months, in her Silver Cross Linear Freeway stroller in Salsa.

The Silver Cross Linear Freeway is 2-in-1: the seat converts from a bassinet to a seat plus it has a reversible handle which is great for younger babies (although Anya still likes to face us and she’s almost 17 months old!). It’s also owned by Jennie Garth who uses it with her daughter Fiona. You can get it for $599 and no shipping at TinyRide.com.)
