Washington, Nov 5 : Hayden Panettiere, who is expecting her first child with fiance Wladimir Klitschko, has revealed that she now weighs around 145 pounds.

The 'Nashville' star said that the worst part about her weight gain is that worst part is that her feet are still size five and they're going, and she believes they are about to snap from underneath her with the strain, E! Online, reported.

The actress said that much of the pounds can be attributed to water weight and her past experience of being a gymnast and that she's still quite muscular and has built extra muscle because of running around with 40 pounds of extra weight.

She also said that she is very ready to hold her baby girl and is going to be a very "hands on mom", and is thrilled that she's having a girl first because she feels like she knows a lot about raising a strong woman.

Panettiere added that she feels very empowered herself and thinks her daughter will too. (ANI)
