Pregnancy can be a roller coaster of emotions. Of course there's happiness, even elation and giddiness. There also can be fear and anxiety. Peg Moline, editor-in-chief of FitPregnancy shares some insights from their current Hollywood Issue about how well-known celebrity moms such as Jessica Alba, Halle Berry, Angelina Jolie, and Jennifer Garner prepared for pregnancy and motherhood:

What women often experience is that their emotions are very close to the surface; they might tear up at a movie or even a greeting card; then have heart-clenching anxiety about their upcoming responsibilities as a mother. And more and more we are realizing that some women experience depression during pregnancy. After the baby is born, the same feelings -- joy, fear, even sadness -- arise, and they also are intensified by exhaustion.
