She announced that she was expecting her first child with fiancé Jacob Pechenik at the start of the year, and now New Girl actress Zooey Deschanel has opened up about her pregnancy frustrations and finding out her baby’s gender.

 

Speaking on Jimmy Kimmel Live about finding out whether she is having a boy or a girl, the 35-year-old actress said: “We are gonna be surprised... It's more fun! Make it into a game!"”

 

And while it is clear that the soon-to-be first-time-mum is ecstatic about her impending arrival, she admits that there are a few things she misses now that she is pregnant, most notably food!

 

She said: "You can't eat so many things if you're pregnant! If I was vegan, I'd just be like [confused face]..."

 

"You can't have sushi, you can't have cheese that tastes good,” she added:

 

But it’s not just food that the Elf star is missing, coffee and alcohol are on her list as well!

 

"You can have a little bit [of coffee], but I would have like four cups a day, and now I can have half of a cup which is a total joke. You can't have alcohol, I miss that - I like wine!”, she jokingly said.

 

 

She is not the only Deschanel to be expecting right now; her sister, Bones star Emily, is also pregnant with her second child and we can’t wait to see what names the siblings choose.
