Jessica Alba is terrified her house won't be ready before she gives birth.

The 'Fantastic Four' actress - who is expecting her first child with fiance Cash Warren in May - has been redecorating her whole house in preparation for the baby but says time is running out to finish it.

She said: "I'm just trying to get my house ready before the baby comes. It's kind of hectic, it's getting close and the house isn't even ready yet.

"I'm used to having to be somewhere all the time, and it's kind of the first time in my life where I really haven't been working in a while, and now it's just about the baby being healthy, the house being ready, and nesting, it's really different. It's cool - I feel like I'm fully absorbing the whole experience."

Jessica also revealed she is shocked by how much her appetite has grown and admits the pregnancy is starting to take its toll.

She added: "I have to make sure that I'm eating more of the right nutrients and vitamins, but I'm not used to eating this much. I've had to take time out of the day to eat before I get cranky and rundown and tired. Before I was just like the energiser bunny."

The 26-year-old says she is busy planning her wedding, but refused to give away any details about the ceremony.
