Pregnant Kendra Wilkinson Reveals Protruding Belly in Swimsuit

In an interview given exclusively to PopEater, Kendra Wilkinson and her husband, NFL star Hank Baskett speak with In Touch Weekly about the highly anticipated arrival of son Henry Baskett IV.

As a Playboy model, Wilkinson was used to being ogled for her body. But now, seven months pregnant with a protruding belly, the former 'Girls Next Door' star has an understanding of what it means to feel beautiful on the inside, too. "The reason I feel so beautiful is not because of my looks, it's because of my bond with the baby."

How much weight have you gained so far? "I have gained 40 pounds. I still have a month-and-a-half to go. I was 110 or 115 and now weigh 150."

How do you feel about the weight gain? "There are things I love about it. I love that my hips are growing, even though it hurts. I want that butt and am starting to get it, so I'm excited."

What have you been craving? "I've been eating a lot of breakfast - eggs, bacon and cheese sandwiches with wheat toast, a lot of waffles with peanut butter. Peanut butter is my biggest craving. I actually put bananas and syrup all over it, too. Even though I don't usually eat much meat, I've been eating a lot of ribs with barbecue sauce and steak. Also, my craving for chocolate came back. I never ate it before because it gave me migraines."

What kind of dad will Hank be? "The best role model in the whole world! I am so happy we're having a boy first because I am excited to see the relationship between little Hank and Hank. I want him to be himself, but also have the same characteristics as Hank."

Has it changed your sex life? "Yes, it's changed our sex life -- for the worse [laughs]. I am a wild girl in bed and I can't really be that wild anymore because I have limits now. I have 40 extra pounds in my belly, so I get tired easily. But no, of course, it's still great. I have a great man in bed, he definitely knows how to please me. But, yeah, we'll be better after when we have more energy!"

Do you feel prettier pregnant? "I have never felt this beautiful! The one thing I love about being pregnant is my skin, I used to have the worst acne. My whole life it's been horrible - on the 'Girls Next Door,' it was disgusting. This is the best skin that I have ever had in my life!"

What's the best thing about being pregnant? "The greatest thing is probably just feeling like a queen. Everybody does everything for me. And Hank is always just giving me unconditional love - that different type of love that I've never felt before."

Being pregnant is a wonderful, magical thing and I remember being obsessed with it every time. What you don't see while you're pregnant is how UN-obsessed and even bored (most) everyone else in the world is with your pregnancy, especially your baby bump. Sometimes I think if I see one more bulging under a tight shirt today, I'll vomit. Earth to Madonna: You are NOT a pioneer, and it's been done before!

I can't really understand why this Kendra gets any publicity at all, has anyone seen her innane Show? Where is her talent? Oh wait, she was Hefner's GF, she lived in the Mansion, she married an NFL player, wow, so mcuh more to worry about in this country than Kendra is having a baby.

Kendra,

cograts on your pregnancy. At least you're one female celebrity that goes about having a baby AFTER you and Hank exchanged your vowes!!! It's so refreshing to know that the baby won't be a bastard child. Hey, I call it like it is, and as I see it.

There is Nothing attractive about a big belly, baby or not! What's with the trend to expose oneself? Pregnancy is not a talent nor is it an unusual "gift" as most any woman can & do have babies. All babies are wonderful...Moms exposing themselves is egotism at its most unattractive.

I think Kendra has grown soooo much! If you watch her now she's not the bimbo she portrayed on Girls next door. i think a lot of that was an act. She seems really grwon up now and mature. i think thei is the best thing to happen to her. real life is always way better than the fantasy one she was living with Hef!

Come on, this news suck. Irrelevant issue. Maybe an article about a pimple on a celebrity's butt is more important than this article. I bet I could sell and make easy money. Hmm, I could do that!

I'm sorry, But what exactly is this womans talent that would warrant her being talked about in any way whatsoever by the media....That is besides her obvious talent of opening her legs to an old wrinkled up man on viagra and a football player...Disgusting!

I agree, these young women who think they are SO special when pregnant that they need to show off either bare bellies or with an extremely tight shirts are pathetic! You wonder if they aren't having a baby because it's going to be their next new "accessory" like a designer handbag!? Gee, look at all the people in the world - a woman was pregnant with all of them, so what's the big deal? And, as for having more energy after the baby is born?? You don't know what tired is till you have kids!! And, it's 24/7!
