This Sunday, Prepon will be celebrating her first Mother's Day as a mother of two kids and she even shed more light on what she recently discovered about taking care of two little kids.

When the actress got pregnant the second time, she was only worried about loving another child as much as she loves her first child. "I remember worrying, like, 'Oh my God how am I possibly going to love something as much as her?' And you just do," she confessed.
