Hudson Would ‘forget’ She Was Pregnant
By WENNThursday, October 8, 2009
Oscar winner JENNIFER HUDSON had such an easy pregnancy with newborn son DAVID, she often “forgot” she was expecting.
The singer/actress and her fiance David Otunga welcomed their first child together in August (09) after months of pregnancy rumours.
Hudson never confirmed her happy news until the tot was born, and she admits it was easy to keep the baby a secret.
She tells People.com, “David and I were the only people who knew for a long time. I would forget I was pregnant, it was so easy.
“I didn’t have any morning sickness, no cravings either. I just thought, ‘Oh, well, we’ll wait until it’ll tell on itself.’ I didn’t show until I was seven months so that made it easy right there.”
Hudson even breezed through the birth - and insists having a Caesarean section was not that painful.
She says, “Everybody told me how much it was going to hurt afterwards but I think I have a different tolerance for pain than others. By that night after I had the baby, I’m like, ‘Look, I can’t sit in this bed anymore. I’ve got to get up!’ I’ve been up and about since he was born. To me, the pain is no different than when you work out a muscle you’ve never worked out before and it’s sore.”
