Hilary Duff on “easy” delivery and the joy of motherhood
New mom Hilary Duff celebrated her first Mother’s Day yesterday, but a few days before that she visited the set of The Ellen DeGeneres Show to talk all things baby and motherhood with host Ellen.
Of her labor, Hilary said, “It was very easy. I went into labor at about one in the morning and I very calmly had my bags packed and woke my husband up after about three hours of walking up and down my hallway. Then I’m like, ‘Okay, it’s time to go, let’s go now.’ We got in the car and drove to the hospital and that was it.”

She also gushed that Luca is a great sleeper: “I feel weird, because it seems like I’m bragging, but he sleeps from like 11 to six. It is possible, ladies. It didn’t happen right away, but the past three weeks, he’s an 11 to 6er.”
She noted that Luca is changing every day, too, saying, “Every single day, it seems like there’s a new face that they’re making. He started to smile about a week ago, and that’s the coolest experience. It’s all good.”

She also told the audience (all expectant moms), “What is to come is such an amazing journey, and a lot of work. It’s just like the best thing that’s ever happened to you.”
