Pregnant Kendra Wilkins hangs up her stripper pole

New Delhi, (ANI): Former Playboy Playmate Kendra Wilkinson has revealed that she is hanging up her stripper pole for the time being, as it may not be appropriate for an expecting mother.

Wilkinson, 24, who is married to American football star Hank Baskett, has decided to retire the pole to the closet, reports the China Daily. “The stripper pole's coming down now because of the baby. Not forever, but for a while. It will be hung up in the closet," she said.

Earlier Wilkinson admitted to E! Online that she was terrified about giving birth, but knowing the happiness it would bring, she had accepted it.

“I thought I was scared, but I know the moment's going to come where I'm like, 'Oh my God. It was so worth it'," she said. “It's only a little bit of pain for a lifetime of happiness. I'm concentrating more on what's healthy for the baby more than my weight gain. I know my weight gain will go away very fast, so if I gain weight and that's what it takes to make my baby healthy, that's what has to happen," she added.
