"Sometimes it's been tough to adjust to weird little things," she said according to People Magazine. "Like your hips go numb at night so you have to keep switching sides, and I started making old lady noises as I walk down the stairs. You know, things like that."

According to People, one reason Hewitt continues to look fabulous while pregnant, despite her cupcake cravings, is because she's upped her workouts.

"I've actually worked out more pregnant than when I wasn't. I've been working out about five to six days a week," Hewitt said, according to People. "I do a lot of swimming, Pilates, yoga, all good stuff for baby and for me. It gets difficult the bigger you get because it's more uncomfortable, but it's important."

Hewitt announced that she was expecting her first child with fiancé Brian Hallisay in early June, and days later also confirmed that the two were set to tie the knot in the future. According to the actress the due date is not so far. 

"I feel like it's going really fast now," Hewitt told Us Weekly. "We're only like three-and-a half or four months away. So I'm just excited to meet the baby!"

Despite not knowing the gender of her first child, Hewitt has a few ideas about his or her appearance.

"You sort of have these pictures in your mind of what [the baby's going to look like]," the actress said, according to People. "I'm really excited to see what he or she is going to look like!"

And now that she's finished shooting her hit TV series "The Client List," the actress is embracing the freedom to revel in her motherhood. 

"I'm off work for the moment, for the summer, it's a really happy, positive time, which I'm grateful for," Hewitt said.

During her break from her Lifetime drama series, the show's executives are deciding how to approach a possible third season as Hewitt's pregnancy was a bit of a surprise. According to Deadline, Hewitt, who is an executive producer, has her own take.

While some feel the series' male lead Colin Egglesfield should play the father of Hewitt's character Riley's baby, she wants Hallisay, her real-life fiancé and co-star to take on that role.

"There are many story lines we are exploring," a rep for Hewitt said. "So any suggestion that we are not doing our best to develop a great season is simply not accurate."
