Jessica Simpson is having a hard time adjusting to being a new mom, and is crying over the heartbreaking emotions she's feeling as she deals with the pressure to shed the weight she gained while pregnant.
"She's so emotional," a friend said about Maxwell Drew Johnson's. "She doesn't want to go to the gym."
Jessica, 31, has been hired by Weight Watchers to drop 50 pounds in just five months and she's struggling with the responsibility.
"She doesn't want to leave her baby. Sometimes she just starts crying. It's hard for her," In Touch magazine reported.
Jess and her fiancé Eric Johnson spend all of their time doting on their little girl who was born May 1 and being new parents is exhausting.
"She's consumed with the new baby. She and Eric are often up with Maxi (Maxwell) all night."
Apparently the new mom is desperate to lose the weight.
