Singer/actress Jessica Simpson exposes her bare baby bump on the cover of the upcoming issue of ELLE Magazine (April 2012). The happy mama-to-be confirmed that she is expecting a baby girl with her fiancé Eric Johnson this spring.

Radiant Jessica Simpson Shows Off Huge Baby Bump

Jessica has big hopes for her daughter, expecting her to be as fashion-forward and style-conscious as her mother and not sporty as her father because she wants to have a girl to go shopping with.

“I swear, I will croak if she asks me for a pair of Nikes instead of Christian Louboutins!” Jessica said. “Eric is so athletic — we’re gonna have this athletic girl and I won’t even be able to take her shopping, ’cause all she’s gonna want is sports bras and Nikes!”

The 31 year-old also revealed their baby girl will have a “non-traditional” name, explaining people will fully understand the meaning when it’s finally announced. Oh, boy. Hopefully, Jessica and Eric won’t name her Dukes (or Peaches or Pears or Texas or…) or something equally awful.

“We’re sure,” Simpson explains. “It’s nothing shocking and nothing you’ll have to add to the dictionary. Still, when people hear it, they’ll know … why.”

The 31 year-old, who was there to promote her new show “Fashion Star”, also talked about her maternity line, which will feature magical clothes that will make future moms look incredible while proudly showing off their bumps during the usual fashion nightmare that are those nine months of pregnancy.

“It’s really challenging to find adorable stuff. And fashionable stuff and stuff that doesn’t make you look like a house,” Jessica said. “You want stuff that’s flattering to your bump; you want to show your bump off. We’re going to come out with some really great stuff. Lots of cute denim for all the ladies out there who are afraid to get dressed up pregnant.”

Jessica’s maternity line will be available in February. As for the sex of her unborn child, Jessica is losing her resolve to keep herself in the dark since she wants to start decorating the nursery. “It’s hard to keep that secret from yourself. Now that we’re about to start the nursery, I kind of want to know,” she confessed.

Pregnant Jessica Simpson should be experiencing the best period of her adult life, but her constant fights with baby daddy/fiancé Eric Johnson, weight issues and health problems are preventing the mama-to-be to be able to fully relax and enjoy her pregnancy.

According to OK!, Jessica is going through an emotional and physical crisis after she was forced to postpone the wedding allegedly because Eric now refuses to sign a pre-nuptial agreement. And medical problems could be threatening the singer’s and her baby’s health.

“She’s said it’s been a difficult pregnancy — she’s been dizzy and nauseous,” a friend of the singer-entrepreneur tells OK!. Adds another insider: “She was totally unprepared for how hard it would be on her body.”

If Jessica really is going through a “baby crisis”, she seems to be handling it pretty well. Lately, the 31 year-old singer/actress has been looking pretty happy and comfortable in her pregnant woman’s body since she is now allowed to eat what she wants and fart as many times as humanly possible.

Mama-to-be Jessica Simpson has been proudly showing off her baby bump since she announced the baby news on Halloween. Eric Johnson’s fiancée recently took to her Twitter to share another relevant pregnancy fact – Jess’ belly is now officially bigger than her boobies!

Jessica tweeted, “I LOVE my new Cavalli dress! My belly is officially bigger than my boobs..well kinda…ha.”

Jessica is becoming one of the most honest pregnant women in the whole world. She openly talks about her flatulence issues, her growing belly and ginormous boobies. Plus, I absolutely love the dress. Jessica looks stunning and happy, despite rumors Eric is pressuring the actress/singer to not sign a prenuptial agreement.

Singer/actress/entrepreneur Jessica Simpson, who is expecting her first child with fiancé Eric Johnson, was forced to postpone the wedding after the former NFL player completely backtracked and refused to sign a pre-nuptial agreement.

The 31 year-old must be devastated to realize the man she loves is not willing to give up his part of her fashion and music empire worth from $700 million to $1 billion in order to marry the mother of his unborn child.

“Eric’s completely changed his mind,” an insider tells OK!. “He started dragging his feet, refusing to sign the prenup they’d drawn up; now he’s laying this whole guilt-trip on her about how he believes in true love and she should, too. A lot of people feel she’s been totally betrayed.”

Do not listen to him, Jessica. If it’s true love, Eric will do anything for you, including signing the most ridiculous pre-nup. If he actually plans to spend the rest of his life with Jessica, why not sign the papers and get it over with?

“Eric knows how important it was to her to be married before the baby was born,” says the source. “She wanted to rush the wedding so that her child wouldn’t be born out of wedlock, and she wouldn’t walk down the aisle with this massive bump. And he’s basically used that as a bargaining chip.”

Bargain chip? Red alert. Gold-digger wants a sugar mama. At the moment, Jessica should just be enjoying this stage of her life. But, no! Eric is basically too busy playing mind games on an unguarded pregnant woman. The pregnancy hormones are clouding Jessica’s judgment.

According to OK!, Jessica Simpson, who confirmed her pregnancy in a cute “mummy” costume on Halloween, used IVF to get pregnant and is now absolutely terrified with the possibility of being pregnant with twins.

The 31 year-old and her fiancé Eric Johnson have allegedly been planning all aspects of this pregnancy from the original announcement to the baby’s nursery. Jessica would go nuts if they learned she is actually expecting twins because that means they would be forced to redecorate.

“That was scary for her,” says the source. “Jessica is a perfectionist and she was panicking that she wouldn’t be able to cram in everything she needs to do in time for the birth.

“For instance, she put so much effort into making the nursery absolutely perfect ‚ she even had it repainted three times! So when the doctor said she might be having twins, she had to rethink everything.”

“She’s totally freaking out” an insider reveals to OK!. “Now that she’s so close to the finish line, fear is setting in. She’s been so excited to be a mom — it’s been like a fairy tale, but it’s becoming real and she worries she’s not ready.”

IVF? Seriously? Jessica might have been desperate to start a family of her own, but I believe she would have actually gotten married before she and Eric decided to go through fertility treatments. Eric and Jessica chose to postpone the big wedding until after the birth of their baby.

Meanwhile Jessica seems to be having a difficult time (and a lot of fun!) as a pregnant woman at least when it comes to flatulence. The mama-to-be recently tweeted, “The average pregnant woman farts 15 times that! RT @OMGFacts The average person expels flatulence 15 times each day!”

Pregnant Jessica admitted to fart 225 times per day. TMI! Too. Much. Information!

A very pregnant Jessica Simpson finally confirmed her pregnancy with what was an exceptionally intelligent “Mummy” Halloween costume. The singer’s fiancé Eric Johnson and their Airedale terrier named Bentley joined the mama-to-be in the first Halloween family portrait (see more pictures below).

Both Jessica and Eric, who dressed up as Larry Bird in a Celtics uniform, are extremely happy and excited about the arrival of their little bundle of joy. The couple announced their engagement in November of 2010, but apparently they still haven’t set the date yet. And now they will probably want to wait until after the baby is born to tie the knot.

Singer/actress Jessica Simpson is happy, engaged, and pregnant! What else would explain her most recent weight gain before the nuptials? Anxiety? Not Jessica! The 31 year-old might have originally planned to get married to her fiancé Eric Johnson before starting a family, but she is reportedly welcoming this pregnancy with an open mouth.

Jessica is now allowed to eat everything she wants and not feel guilty about it because that’s what pregnant women do. “She joked, ‘Well, now I can eat anything I want and no one will care. It’s just sort of a rule with pregnant women.’ But it was typical Jessica that she was making a joke of it,” a source said.

But, is Jessica really pregnant? Really? A close friend claims, “Jessica is so excited” since she allegedly started telling people about the upcoming baby arrival. Meanwhile, Jessica is busy attending baby showers (for childhood friend Stephanie McGuire), dressed in the most conspicuous baggy clothes, as if they were Lamaze classes.
