No time for haters. Brittany Cartwright<\/strong><\/a> revealed why she didn\u2019t let pregnancy weight gain keep her down<\/a> \u2014 even when haters commented on her size.<\/p>\n \u201cI definitely felt the pressure [to lose weight] because I did gain a lot of weight through my pregnancy,\u201d Cartwright, 34, exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em> while promoting her collaboration with Cupshe<\/a> for the brand\u2019s BeMe: The Cupshe Birthday Collection. \u201cBut it was worth every pound<\/a>. I would do it over and over again. I\u2019ll say that a million times.\u201d<\/p>\n The former Vanderpump Rules<\/em> star noted that \u201cpeople can be so cruel online\u201d and that her status as a reality TV personality only fueled their fire<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a little bit different, like, [constant] interaction with people [who watch the show]. So that was a lot,\u201d she recalled. \u201cIt could [be] hard at times, especially going through postpartum at the same time.\u201d<\/p>\n The Kentucky native, who welcomed son Cruz in April 2021<\/a> with husband Jax Taylor<\/strong><\/a>, is now content with her post-baby figure. \u201cI\u2019m feeling great. I feel like myself again. I\u2019m like so happy,\u201d Cartwright told Us<\/em>. \u201cI definitely feel amazing and being a mom is like the best thing I\u2019ve ever done in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n The former Bravo star<\/a>, who exited the series in December 2020<\/a>, revealed that she is currently preparing for her next pregnancy.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m definitely baby crazy already,\u201d she confessed. \u201cMe and Jax have already talked about it. I wanna spend this summer having fun and then I\u2019m ready to try for No. 2.\u201d<\/p>\n While Cartwright is relishing in the moments with her toddler<\/a>, she told Us<\/em> she misses being pregnant.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s the most incredible feeling in the world. You\u2019re growing a human being,\u201d the \u201cWhen Reality Hits\u201d podcast cohost said. \u201cI can\u2019t even explain just how amazing that feeling is. Every single milestone while you\u2019re pregnant, like, you just are so excited.\u201d<\/p>\n The boy mom insisted that when baby No. 2 comes along both she and Taylor, 43, would welcome another son or a baby girl.<\/p>\n \u201cHe wouldn\u2019t care either way. I mean, of course, we would love to have the experience having a boy and a girl, so you get to do both things, whatever they enjoy,\u201d the Jax and Brittany Take Kentucky<\/em> alum<\/a> revealed. \u201cBut just whatever God gives us, we\u2019ll be so happy for.\u201d<\/p>\n Ahead of her push for another child, Cartwright is gearing up for summer with the help of Cupshe<\/a>. The beachwear brand is launching its 8th birthday collection, BeMe: The Cupshe Birthday Collection<\/a>, with all-new styles inspired by the Pump Rules<\/em> alum, Selling Sunset<\/em>\u2019s Heather Rae El Moussa<\/strong><\/a> (n\u00e9e Young) and supermodel Chanel Iman<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI love that the suits look amazing on every single body type,\u201d Cartwright told Us<\/em> of the collaboration. \u201cThat\u2019s something that was, like, really big for me.\u201d<\/p>\n She added that she tends to gravitate toward the brand\u2019s one-piece suits and high wasted bikinis.<\/p>\n \u201cAfter having a baby, I struggle with loose skin around my lower abdomen \u2026 and that could still be something that you\u2019re self-conscious about,\u201d the TV personality explained. \u201cSo I made sure I was going through [the collection] and picking things that would fit with me and maybe other moms and people who have those same feelings about their body as I do. And these really just, like, tuck you in and make you feel like you\u2019re secure and I love that.\u201d<\/p>\n
