Most women will look back at their pregnancies and — eventually, over time — be able to own up to a few moments of sheer, unprovoked melodrama.  Amanda Peet is no different.  In a recent interview, the mom to 8-month-old daughter Frances Pen revealed that she was "literally a nightmare" as an expectant, first-time mother.

The second I found out I was pregnant, I got out of a chair stomach first … I was like a princess. I was like a pig in shit. I was like, `Get me more food, get me my bags, let me go home early.’

The histrionics weren’t only reserved for Amanda’s husband, screenwriter David Benioff, however.  While shooting a scene with co-star John Cusack for their film Martian Child, Amanda took a tumble — and tears ensued.   

I got really scared because I’d literally been pregnant for two minutes. The baby was probably the size of a little piece of grain and I started crying, ‘John I’m pregnant! Could the baby be hurt?’  He was like, ‘Jesus, call your husband!’ I was such a drama queen.

Amanda, 35, also said that even her food cravings managed to provoke some internal conflict.  Although she initially was pleased by her newfound "big boobs" and "big bum" — which made the actress feel "delicious" — reality eventually set in. 

I ate peas about five nights a week with 10 pounds of butter and 10 pounds of salt. I was so excited that my craving was so healthy until I realized it was the butter and the salt I was craving.

Martian Child opens this Friday nationwide.

In this week’s issue, Us Weekly asked four celebrity moms what their plans are for Mother’s Day. Of course, many didn’t know — since hopefully they’re not the ones making the plans!

Edie Falco, mom to Anderson, 2: I have no idea. I’ll ask my 2-year-old what his plans are.

Lisa Rinna, mom to Delilah, 8 1/2, and Amelia, 5 1/2: I hope the girls will do something special for me. We’ll be in New York for ‘Chicago,’ so hopefully we’ll have a lovely brunch somewhere.

Cindy Crawford, mom to Presley, 7 1/2, and Kaia, 5 1/2: I actually think my husband and I are going to be away for a without-the-kids weekend, so I won’t be with my kids this Mother’s Day.

Amanda Peet, mom to Frances, 2 months: I’m sure I’ll be with my sister and my mom. My sister is pregnant with a baby girl. I just had my girl, so we’ll probably be all together.

Actress Amanda Peet, 35, and jewelry designer Jennifer Meyer, 29, brought their daughters out to lunch in NYC earlier today.

Ruby Sweetheart, 5 1/2 months, hung out in mom’s arms in baby JaR’s girl’s animal instinct blanket in zebra/fuschia ($72 +$6 for monogram). while Frances Pen, 2 months, is cuddled in JJ Cole Premaxx Sling Carrier-New Edition Black/Gray ($50 and free shipping). (For a more comfortable fit, cup the sling around your shoulder rather than having it up against the neck – ouch!

Danielle adds: I didn’t like this baby carrier – I really felt like we were putting Anya in a bag, whereas other slings fit the baby better since you get one for your size.  With this carrier, you cinch the drawstring to make it tighter and the strap is too narrow to distribute the weight evenly.)
