Actress Jodie Sweetin Prepares for Motherhood

Full House actress Jodie Sweetin has been very busy preparing to become a first-time parent with husband Cody Herpin.

“Five more weeks to go — the countdown is on!” Jodie said at the Readalicious Wonderland event over the weekend. “I think I’m ready. It’s weird. I don’t think you’re ever fully prepared to be a parent, but I’m excited for sure.”

To prepare herself for impending motherhood, she's been turning to family and friends for advise as well as doing lots of reading. “I’m a huge reader,” she says. “I’m a big book nerd. I go through like two books a week.”

Like many other expectant moms, Jodie has found some pregnancy cravings. “Frozen chicken pot pies are like the one thing throughout the pregnancy I’ve really wanted but that’s about it,” she says. “Nothing weird. No pickles and ice cream. I’ve heard of women craving to eat dirt, but none of that. I’m pretty normal.”

After the baby arrives in April, Jodie wants to head back to work acting. She admits, "After the baby is born, I definitely want to start getting back into things. I want to start working again, but I want to get back into shape first, because it’s kind of hard to work when you’re round."
