Bearing it all under the public eye allows for some unwanted, harsh criticism. Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi sticks up for herself and fellow reality star Kim Kardashian as they were both scrutinized for their baby weight.

“So much is made in the media about celebrity pregnancy weight gain,” Snooki writes in her upcoming book Baby Bumps, according to Page Six. “Some women have been mocked cruelly for it. Tabloid monitoring of how fast women lose the baby weight is practically a blood sport. If you weren’t on the cover of In Touch in a bikini within two months of giving birth to talk about your salsa workout, you were a fat, lazy loser.”

Snooki continues, “Just look at how Jessica Simpson and Kim Kardashian were tracked and criticized in the media. Awful! Worrying about weight gain made the nine months even harder. The one bright spot of pregnancy was eating whatever you wanted.”
