An expectant Molly Sims looks every bit the model mom on the latest cover of The Bump. The Las Vegas alum opens up about getting pregnant at 41, husband Scott Stuber‘s obsession with picking out their daughter’s name, and their 2-year-old son Brooks.

On getting pregnant at 41: “I got pregnant with my son at 38 while on my honeymoon, but I had a harder time with her. People always think, ‘Oh, you have to take care of yourself once you get pregnant, or when you have the baby,’ but your body is like a garden. You have to feed it and make sure it’s fertile before you even start trying. I saw a great acupuncturist who put me on fertility teas, and I worked with Lori Bregman, a phenomenal coach, who really helped me get ready to have this baby. She was my support system, and I swear by her fertility smoothies, which I drank every day.”

On her husband being obsessed with picking out their daughter’s name: “Yes. Scott is pretty much obsessed with the name. He wants it to represent not just when they’re a newborn but also how it will sound in a board meeting. He’ll do crazy stuff like announce the name like a football player—’Brooks Stuber, number 59 for the Patriots!’ He also makes PowerPoint presentations with columns so he can see first names with middle names.”

On if she’s stressed about having two young children soon: “I can tell you the things I stressed about with Brooks like breastfeeding—he was born with a tooth like a vampire!—I won’t stress about with her. I’m actually more worried about Brooks. The time we had with just him has been amazing. I’m so excited for our daughter to arrive, but at the same time I’m going to miss that alone time with him. It’s something I really cherished these past two and a half years.”
