Supermodel Moms To
Be
Five supermodels
share their thoughts on impending motherhood.

Its amazing,
its sort of like something is growing in you its hard to explain. To know
that something keeps getting bigger and bigger. I had a cyst once but
it was nothing like this. My trainer/husband says I've never looked more
beautiful that I'm positively glowing. I know he's lying because he refers
to overweight people as fat pigs but I do appreciate his sensitivity.
If its a girl we are going to name her Brian and if its a boy were going
to name him Molly.

I didn't
know I was pregnant until I was five months along, I haven't had a regular
period since I was eight so I didn't notice anything for a while but two
months ago I went to the doctor when I felt something moving. We'd had
sushi the night before and I was really frightened that it wasn't dead.
You can imagine my relief when I found out it was going to be a baby instead
of a tuna. I have big plans for this baby, I have so much I want to teach
it. The simple things like walking and talking, I can always get a tutor
to help out if I run into problems. I can teach it how to swim and tell
it all bout the two basic food groups. I think its going to be a riot
having someone to hang around with all the time.

Its a real
spiritual thing, its like something that is bigger than you only not really
because then you would tip over. I feel in touch with myself and my feelings
for the first time since I got the cover of Vogue. I've been researching
Eastern philosophies as well as religions with a of a Western influence.
I've pretty well designed my own. I want to be everything to this child.
Mother , preacher advisor, friend, personal trainer. This child will be
a smaller version of me at first and then it will grow larger as time
goes by. I put my faith in Buddha and Jesus and ask for tranquility so
that my child will be born in a peaceful atmosphere.
Suze
this is my
second child so I know what look forward to. My first child Jejune, has
been the light of my life. Whenever I visit her in Switzerland I feel
whole. I share her joys and triumphs whenever I get a free moment. I also
learned from my mistakes because this time I m pretty sure who the father
is. It is difficult being a single mother, having to re-organize my life
for her yearly visits so this time I've learned to prioritize. I put myself
first, and my career second.

To be honest
I thought this would ruin my career but thanks to Heidi motherhood isn't
a career killer as much as it used to. I worry about all the normal things,
will this child be healthy, smart, pretty, thin. Will I lose the seven
pounds I've gained so far, but all those things seem unimportant when
I start to look ahead when I will actually see my little daughter or son
posing next to me that makes all of this worthwhile.
