Everyday Italian star Giada De Laurentiis, 37, recently spoke to People magazine about how she feels about her changing pregnant body and, of course, food cravings. The Food Network star is expecting her first child, a girl, in April with her husband Todd Thompson.

“I couldn’t be more excited about being pregnant,” she says at the South Beach Wine and Food Festival on Feb. 23rd. “She can’t get here soon enough. I can’t wait to meet her.”

Is Giada holding true to her roots and craving Italian food? “I used to crave sweets before I got pregnant,” she confesses. “You know, chocolate, cookies, cake. I’ve normally got a really big sweet tooth, but not now this baby just wants meat. I always want steak—lots of steak!”

The mom-to-be says she does not want to gain too much weight, but is enjoying a sensible diet. “You know, I think this is the time to indulge myself. It’s such a wonderful time, so I’m eating what I want.”

Forget about sitting down to three large meals, Giada focuses on eating frequent, small meals. “I eat a lot of little meals, which is what you’re supposed to do when you’re pregnant. It’s healthier, anyway.”
