She expressed her fear of facing the same challenges with the second pregnancy, noting that her “doctor said that it’s interesting that on the second, your hormones just adjust so much faster. It wasn’t so much that I was depressed, I just had a lot of anxiety.”
The actress explained that while she and her daughter Jupiter were “thrilled,” she was “very nervous” and had many fears at the beginning, questioning if she could handle it again, saying, “Oh my gosh, can I do this again? Can I physically do this again? Can I mentally do this again?”
