"Gisele gives off simplicity, spirituality, shows that she has concern with living well, being happy and, now, with being an excellent mom," the reporter revealed.

In a preview of the interview, which airs this weekend, the Brazilian correspondent added: "From what I saw in the interview, I'd say she's right on track."

Meantime, the stunning model is back to doing what she does best, returning to modeling work just seven weeks after giving birth.

Gisele did a photo shoot Monday, for Colcci‘s winter campaign. Already back in shape, the genetically blessed Brazilian did her first work since the arrival of baby Benjamin. The setting was a studio in Boston and the Übermodel worked for several hours with the renowned photographer David Sims.

Welcome to the world of working moms Gisele!



SHAME ON YOU RADAR for calling a tub birth "bizarre" !! Going to a hospital, being hooked up to an i.v., with an epidural, is clinical, not natural. Kudos to Gisele for being able to do a natural birth! It takes a strong woman!!

They have giant tubs at the hospital birthing floor. How is this bazzar? Going from a water filled womb into shocking cold air is weird.. a tub bath is more natural for the baby. wow when is this new?

Water births are nothing new. Midwives have used them for a long time to help keep the mother relaxed during labor. Under skilled supervision, they are safe and can actually help speed up a labor. Good for them for choosing an alternative labor.

I fail to see how a birthing tub is "bizarre." Water supports mom's body and eases labor pains. Hardly sensational.. just a mom choosing the birthing plan that makes her most comfortable. ****://****.americanpregnancy.org/labornbirth/waterbirth.html

What is so bizarre about a water birth or a home birth? Water birth is actually a natural, healthy relatively painless way to give birth. And yeah for a star not opting for a C-Tuck!

I actually considered a water birth (before I knew I would have to have a c-section). One of the drawbacks listed in "What to Expect" was "infant could drown". Scared me!

Read a real maternity book like Ina May's Guide to Childbirth or The Thinking Woman's guide to a better birth. Reading what to expect is like reading ROL and saying you are knowledgeable on current events LOL
