lindsay davenport motherhood 300x281 Lindsay Davenport On Being A Mom A Second TimeLindsay Davenport  says that pregnancy this time around was a little different from her first go round. She said that she put on more weight and her hips got bigger.

The joys of being a woman.

Lindsay had a lot to say about how being a parent the second time.

When you’re a working mom…
you really can’t afford to waste much time. If you’re practicing for 90 minutes, you need to bust your butt for 90 minutes to get it all in, so you can have that hour lunch with your child.

I admire… Gwen Stefani—she’s is a friend of mind. I have an enormous amount of respect for her and Gavin: when they’re with their kids, how they go about their jobs, how they feel about parenthood and working. Her job is crazier than tennis and, for her, there’s no chance she’s going to leave her children at home and there’s no chance she’s not going to spend time with them during the day even if it means getting four hours of sleep.

We’re hoping Lauren is… a little bit of a tomboy, but we’ll see. Sports is our way of life. It’ll have to be like that for our kids.

I’ve always said… my husband will be more of a parent than me. Truly, I’m the luckiest girl: He’s home by 4:00 and when he walks through the door, he does everything with my son—and I don’t exaggerate. Any time in the middle of the night, if there’s a cry, he’s always the first one up. I kind of pretend I don’t hear it a lot of the time.

That’s pretty much what I do too. Oh sorry honey, I didn’t hear the kids.

Oops!
