Jessica Alba has revealed that she is refusing to ‘deprive herself’ of anything when it comes to her pregnancy cravings. The 29-year-old actress, who is expecting her second child with husband Cash Warren, said that she eats whatever takes her fancy, but is careful to work off the extra calories through exercise. Alba already has daughter Honor, two, and told Latina magazine that the pregnancies have been very similar. “Sometimes you can’t get a food out of your mind. I could always eat watermelon. With Honor, I loved fruit, too. It’s a decent craving. You still eat cheeseburgers and pickles – you just want watermelon really bad. I don’t deprive myself of anything. I eat whatever. “I’d like to still do something five days a week, from a half hour to an hour – nothing excessive, just some moving. It makes the whole pregnancy so much easier. The more fit you are, the easier the birth is, and a healthier baby you’re going to have.” She added that her nerves have settled second time around. “Every moment was so new and kind of terrifying and now I know what to expect,” she explained. “It’s like, ‘It’s fine, I’ve been there before.’ “With Honor, I was constantly like, ‘Is she moving? Is her heart beating?’ I’d worry about everything, and with this baby, I don’t have the same anxieties.”
