told of self-doubt during her pregnancy: "I was like, 'I don't know how to do this. It'll break,'"
"I'm not very maternal. I am, in a way, but when it comes to crying, sadness and like that kind of stuff, I'm like: 'I don't know what to do."
Working through her emotions, she added she feels confident as she's about to become a mom, noting: "After doing a ton of work and continuing on that journey, I was like, 'I'm ready.'"
