JENNIFER HUDSON TALKS ABOUT BEING A NEW MOMMY IN PEOPLE MAGAZINE!

After keeping her pregnancy on the down-low, Jennifer Hudson sat down with People magazine for a photo shoot with her new son, David Jr., born August 10. In the issue, set to hit newsstands on October 15, the singer opened up about what it's like to be a new mom and about her nearly two-month-old son.
"I love being nurturing and caring because I love to see other people happy," Hudson tells the magazine about her new role. "Who better to devote my time to than my own child?" In the issue, Hudson never addresses the tragic murder of her mom, brother and nephew last year, but instead talks about her baby boy. "I've never seen a baby eat like he does!" she said, adding that she loves to sing him lullabies to get him to stop crying. "He can be crying at the top of his lungs and just turn off like a switch."

She adds that even at his young age, he's already taking after his dad. "He has a lot of personality, like David. He's always been a good sleeper. His favorite time to smile now is diaper changes. Or when he spits up on you — he just cracks up like he thinks it's the funniest thing," she said. "And his bottle is his pacifier. With a pacifier, it's like he knows, 'Ain't nothing come out of here. No, I don't want that. Where's the real deal?' His best friend is that bottle; that's all he wants."

Hudson also talks about her decision to keep her pregnancy private among rumors that she was expecting. She said that it wasn't difficult since she "didn't show until I was seven months so that made it easy right there. David and I were the only people who knew for a long time," she said. "I would forget I was pregnant, it was so easy. I didn't have any morning sickness, no cravings either. I just thought, 'Oh, well, we'll wait until it'll tell on itself.' "

She did bring her mom up in the conversation when asked if she'd be comfortable letting her son go into show business as she did. Hudson said she'd support him in whatever he decides to do with his life.

"We'll definitely encourage education. His father is an education fanatic so we definitely want him to get an education and go to school," she said. "My mom always said, 'Whatever you want to do, I'll support you as long as you're happy.' So I will do the same."
