Kristy Swanson and her post-pregnancy “pooch”

Kristy Swanson had no reservations about returning to work with someextra pounds on her. The actress filmed last night’s episode of Law& Order: Criminal Intent, based around Anna Nicole Smith, a monthafter giving birth to son Magnus, now 11 weeks, and says it wasn’tdifficult to go on camera overweight.

In this role it’s perfectly understandable that I would be overweight.It’s real life. I still have my post-pregnancy ‘pooch.’ It is what itis.

Sinceshe went back to work earlier than planned, Kristy and her fiance,Lloyd Eisler, decided it would be best for Magnus not to tag along toNew York for the shoot. Kristy still got to see her son though.

Lloyd wasn’t keen on the idea, so Magnus stayed home with Lloyd and[Lloyd's] mom. I was away for seven days, so it was hard, but I talkedto him every day on the webcam.

ThoughKristy says she and Lloyd, who she met on Skating with Celebrities,aren’t officially engaged, they are planning on tying the knot inOctober.

I guess you could say so [that we're engaged]. I don’t have an engagement ring yet,but we’re getting married, probably this October. We want a smallwedding, hopefully in the Caribbean.
