Jodie Sweetin

Former Full House actress Jodie Sweetin is excitedly awaiting the arrival of her first child with set designer Cody Herpin.

"It’s a scary thing but I’m kind of scared of how much bigger I’m going to get!" she said of her pregnancy at the Nicole Khristine Jewelry party at Social in Hollywood.

Sweetin admits that the couple expect to keep it tame when it comes to the baby's name. She says, "We’re not naming her after any fruits or electronic devices or anything like that. She’s going to have a fairly normal name. We want something different, something cute and girly, but not too girly – a little funky."

So far husband Cody has been extremely supportive: "He goes and gets me all my little cravings like my frozen chicken pot pies and he cooks dinner for me and cleans up the house because I’m exhausted all the time. I’m like, 'I need a nap!' He’s really good about that."

One thing she's hoping to hand down to her daughter -- self-esteem -- which she admits took a while for her to find for herself. (Sweetin battled a meth addiction in her early 20's.)

"I had to learn to just be comfortable in my own skin," she says. "So I hope she’ll learn that a little bit sooner. To just be yourself – that was probably the hardest thing for me that I didn’t learn until I was in my early twenties."
