    The "Fashion Star" judge, 32, said the second pregnancy has been the "complete opposite" of her relatively complication-free gestation with daughter Maxwell Drew.

    "I felt amazing," she said, recalling the ease of her first pregnancy. "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!" she added.
