Jessica Simpson is still pregnant and it seems like she has been that way for ages! Each day, however, she is looking more and more like she is about to give birth. In her latest outing, Jessica was spotted with her fiancée Eric Johnson. The starlet was wearing a floor length dress, fur-trimmed sweater and her usual heels as the pair left an Italian restaurant arm in arm.

At least Jessica Simpson has switched from high-heeled stilettos to a much more comfortable wedge heeled shoe. Being pregnant can put a lot of extra weight on a woman's back, so Jess is better off with a shoe that gives her support!

Her baby bump wasn't clearly visible in the flowing dress, it's easy to tell from her last outing -- in which she wore a clingy black and silver dress -- that she is due very soon. It seems like ages ago that she announced her pregnancy, though it has only been about 3 months. When do you think that Jessica Simpson will give birth?

Earlier this month, Jessica Simpson told Extra she’s indulging her pregnancy cravings by eating a high-sugar diet, including buttered Pop Tarts…which sounds disgusting, but hey: I’ve been known to favor weirder food combinations, and I’m not even pregnant. Here’s the thing, though: I haven’t signed a deal to get paid millions of dollars as a future Weight Watchers rep. And as someone who has, Simpson sounds more like she’s promoting disordered eating than the balanced approach to weight loss that Weight Watchers promotes.

Jessica Simpson’s attitude is almost refreshing for a Hollywood mom-to-be; she doesn’t seem obsessed with counting calories or keeping a low weight, which is about right for a woman who’s expecting. She says she isn’t afraid to give in to cravings:

In fact, it sounds more like she’s going on a pre-diet binge, which sounds more like disordered eating than a healthy approach to pregnancy.

Weight Watchers prides itself on a balanced approach to weight loss. Unlike other diets, they’re not into restriction or deprivation, and they promote eating nutritious meals. But hiring Simpson as a spokesperson is making me like them less by the minute. Not only does it imply that pregnancy equals obesity, but they’ve also chosen a spokesperson who’s openly more concerned about her looks and PR than her actual health.

Weight gain during pregnancy is a natural–and necessary– part of becoming a mom. Many mothers lose the weight naturally through breast-feeding, returning to a normal diet and engaging in regular physical activity. But that’s assuming you haven’t been binging on junk food for your entire pregnancy. Not only are buttered Pop Tarts and Kraft Mac N’ Cheese not delivering great nutrition to Simpson and her child; they’re also setting her up for much more difficulty losing weight and returning to a healthy diet post-pregnancy.

Binging on junk food before starting any weight loss effort is a bad idea all around. You’re not only setting yourself up for failure; you’re also engaging in what many would consider disordered eating. Let’s all do ourselves a favor and look to Weight Watchers’ other spokespeople for inspiration instead of Jessica Simpson.

If we were a pregnant lady, we'd like to be a pregnant lady like Jessica Simpson. 1. She's got that glowing thing that people talk about going on 2. She's dressing that bump really quite well and 3. Well, she can probably afford really ace baby clothes, the sort of thing Harper Beckham would rock to the shops with Victoria.

Jessica was spotted out and about with her baby bump again today, touching down in LAX from a flight with her sister Ashlee. She was reportedly at the birth when Ashlee had her son Bronx in 2008, and the sisters have always been good mates. Jess has also said that she's not bothering with any daft pregnancy diets - and that actually, if anything she's eating more.

"I'm eating a lot of stuff that I ate in my childgood," said Jessica - who is apparently due to give birth in the Spring. "Kraft Mac n Cheese, Pop Tarts, Cap'n Crunch. Everything's filled with sugar. We've not heard of this so-called Cap'n Crunch, but we might do some research into it. Breakfast for tomorrow: sorted.

Now, we’ve learned that she is already considering the idea of having another baby after their first child is born. Talk about too soon! And will she take time off to slim down with Weight Watchers, as it was previously rumored, and then get married?

The singer-turned-fashion-mogul is already planning her second pregnancy, even though she’s still currently pregnant with her first baby. Perhaps she doesn’t realize that she has to give birth to this one first? Ha. A stupid Jessica Simpson joke — because that’s never been done before. In a new interview, she said, “We would like another fairly soon after this one. We don’t want to leave it too long between them but we’ll see. I have an idea of how it will all work out but we’ll see.”

She also talked of her pregnancy cravings, and it’s as if she’s being sponsored by these companies for her endorsement. She said, “I’m a big fan of Kraft Mac N’ Cheese… That keeps me happy. That keeps me sodium happy. I, like, wake up swollen because I put Lowry’s seasoning salt all over it. I’m craving a lot of things I had when I was a kid, like, this morning I buttered a Pop Tart. I haven’t done that in years.”Gross. Ladies, did you have weird pregnancy cravings? Hit the comments with your crazy concoctions!

Jessica Simpson has reportedly decided to have a caesarean section when she gives birth. The 31-year-old is expecting her first child with fiancé Eric Johnson later this year. She was taking lessons to help prepare her for a natural childbirth, but a source has told In Touch that the singer-turned-fashion mogul has stopped going.

Simpson's younger sister Ashlee was apparently in labour for three days and going through the Lamaze class reminded her of what her sibling endured. "Jessica can't wait to become a mother, but she quickly decided that giving birth the old-fashioned way just wasn't for her," the insider said.

"So she is planning a C-section in late April. She's already booked a $2800 suite at Cedars-Sinai hospital in LA. "Jessica knows that what Ashlee went through to get Bronx was worth it, but wants to skip the pain."

Simpson is looking forward to welcoming her first child into the world and has enjoyed her pregnancy. She recently admitted she's been suffering from cravings during it. "This week it's peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, toasted," she previously said. "And then, I'll put some salt on my hand like I'm taking a tequila shot and then take a bite of the sandwich."

Jessica Simpson's tastes are quite different now that she's eating for two. "I had a buttered Pop Tart this morning," the pregnant 31-year-old tells Extra. "I'm eating a lot of stuff that I ate in my childhood. Kraft Mac n' Cheese, Pop Tarts, Cap'n Crunch. Everything's filled with sugar." The Fashion Star mentor adds that she isn't afraid to "give in to my cravings. "I'm like, 'Yeah, I can do it. We'll worry about the rest afterwards.'"
Luckily, Simpson hasn't experienced any morning sickness.

"Everybody comes up to me and asks me, 'How's the nausea?' and I'm like, 'I don't have any!'" the singer says, though she's "definitely eating a lot of Tums -- I have the reflux and acid going on."Due later this year, Simpson says she and fiance Eric Johnson, 32, still don't know the sex of their baby. "I feel like it's already going to be a shock. Like, 'Whoa! I just pushed that out!' You know?"The couple has some names that they're "throwing around" but Simpson says they're keeping them "on the down low" for now.

She might be pregnant, but that is not stopping Jessica Simpson looking radiant at a promotion event in Pasadena. The mother-to-be was at hand to promote an upcoming show on NBC, called Fashion Star, set to premiere in March. The singer is on the new fashion show as a celebrity mentor, and her red carpet glow was all the proof that she has what it takes to shine in fashion.

Jessica's pregnancy glow was apparent at the red carpet, as she stepped out in a black strapless sequin dress at the NBC party, Daily Mail reported. The curvy star had her baby bump proudly on display in the figure-hugging dress, paired with some black high heels and edgy black nail polish. Jessica's long blonde locks were in volumious waves, completing the sizzling look with smoky eyes, rosy cheeks, and light pink gloss. Gone are the days of hiding her baby belly. Jessica seems to embracing the home stretch of her pregnancy with confidence and ease. With her beautiful smile and glittery ensemble, she looked positively radiant.

Jessica Simpson has reasons to be smiling. Motherhood and the new reality TV show are enough to keep her busy this year, but she's not doing it alone. Fashion Star is hosted by supermodel Elle Macpherson, and includes Nicole Richie and John Varvatos as mentors for upcoming fashion designers competing for million dollar deals with fashion retailers like Macy's and H&M. Jessica's debut as a fashion mentor can be seen on NBC on March 13th.

When Jessica Simpson walked out on stage yesterday at the TV Critics Press Tour to promote her new show Fashion Star, she appeared to be about 17 months pregnant. With twins.

She's not, of course. But she is certainly ready to pop. And it's not fair how beautiful she looked while sporting that baby bump. Thankfully, she was in great sprits while talking to us about why she fell in love with Fashion Star's concept and the quick arrival of her maternity line. Plus, we did a little test with her to help predict the sex of her first born…You're welcome!Simpson has yet to find out the sex of her baby (by choice), but she admitted to us her resolve is going to crack, and she'll want to know soon. "I think it's going to happen," she says. "It's hard to keep that secret from yourself. Now that we're about to start the nursery, I kind of want to know."

Kristin to the rescue! Check out the interview below to see our baby test, and if you happen to be in a "Jessica Simpson's Baby Gender" pool at work, you owe us half the money you get when you win.

As for that maternity line, you won't have to wait nine months for that line to deliver itself to stores (pregnancy puns are fun). Jessica Simpson: Maternity will be on shelves as early as February! "It's really challenging to find adorable stuff. And fashionable stuff and stuff that doesn't make you look like a house," she tells us. "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."

But if you expect to see Simpson showing off her bump via denim on Fashion Star, you're out of luck. " We shot the show before I got pregnant. We shot the entire thing between July and August. I mean, I could have gotten pregnant in there somewhere!" she laughs.
