Lacey Chabert felt like a "beached whale" during her pregnancy
The 'Mean Girls' star and her husband David Nehdar welcomed their daughter Julia into the world seven months ago and Lacey admits she struggled to feel confident with her body throughout the whole nine months but says it was "all worth it" once she gave birth to her bundle of joy.

She said: "There comes a point in pregnancy where you just can’t. I literally felt just so uncomfortable - you just feel huge, and I had a rib that was out of place for a few months. And I just felt like a 'beached whale in distress,' is what my friends and I kept saying.
"But it’s all worth it when you see that beautiful baby. It’s true, what people say, that you watch them grow up and you really imagine yourself doing it all over again. Not for a while but she’s brought us so much joy that I am so thankful for every day."
And Lacey is glad to have the support of other mothers including complete strangers.
She told People magazine: "The first time I took the baby to the doctor, I had never taken the stroller out of the car or the car seat out. There were three adults [there], holding this little tiny newborn baby, and not one of us knew how to open the stroller.
"Another new mother was there who had some stroller experience - I mean, believe it or not, they’re complicated to open, so you learn how to do it. And she came over, she saw the look on our [faces] and was like, 'Okay, I’m gonna help you.' It’s not a big deal now."
