Jessica Simpson’s Baby Bump Sweats Style

Jessica Simpson’s baby bump is a topic of gossip blog buzz, but the singer turned reality show judge and designer doesn’t always opt for dressy duds.

Jess sometimes dresses the Simpson baby bump in fancy couture pieces, but the mom of one and soon to be two doesn’t always have time for that.

And like many moms, Simpson and her baby bump often wear sweats and sneakers. Earlier this week, the pregnant reality queen was snapped out shopping with tot Maxwell — in a cute, dressed down outfit.

On Wednesday, Jessica stepped out to shop in L.A. wearing green sweatpants, blue New Balance sneakers, a fitted black t-shirt that accentuated Simpson’s baby bump, and a black hoodie — a style choice to which we think all parents of small kids can relate.

But as Simpson gets closer to the new baby’s arrival, she also admits to experiencing some of the burnout new parents often feel.

With Maxwell, who is now ten months old, Simpson said pregnancy was a breeze — but the second time around?

According to Jess, the process is a bit more draining, and she explains:

“With Maxwell, I felt amazing. Like I could do everything, eat everything. Do whatever I wanted. I had a lot of energy. This time around … I’m, like, exhausted. Eating Tums. That’s my snack of choice.”

It seems that the star is experiencing another common lesson for new parents — and Simpson says it’s not all baby bumps and stroller shopping. Jessica says:

“I think originally I had wanted three, and now that I have one and another one on the way, I feel like I could stop here. It’s a lot of work. Obviously it pays off and it’s totally worth it, but it’s a lot of responsibility.”
