Pete Wentz On Breast Milk & Sympathy Weight Gain

Pete Wentz, new dad to 1-month-old Bronx Mowgli, revealed that wife Ashlee Simpson's breast milk tastes "soury" and "weird" on SIRIUS' The Morning Mash Up! on Monday. Us reports that the 29-year-old father may not be a fan, but Bronx Mowgli is: "The baby loves it, it’s the only thing he’s had a chance to have."

Pete also revealed that Ashlee isn't the only Wentz that gained some pregnancy weight: "I gained 10 pounds at least. I usually hang out around 135, 134, I go up to about 140, and when I hit 148, I get fat face." He added, "I’m working out a little bit, trying…I mean last night I decided to eat Virgil’s [BBQ] at midnight which is never a good idea…I’m feeling that a little bit today. For the most part, we’re going on walks – that kind of stuff. I think it comes off easier for her because she gets to breast feed and I don’t have the luxury of doing that."

Pete also shared his "scared daddy moment." The new dad said, "I had a scared moment right before she went into labor – I thought I was having a heart attack for real, like my heart started doing like a weird thing. But, the first time I held him…I just knew everything was perfect. Like everything was good – it was like Legos, you know what I’m saying, like it all fit together."

Pete said he's hoping to have more children in the future. "I want to have six now. I mean not six specifically, but I want more…I can’t imagine that we’re stopping, you know what I’m saying? This is like a Journey song, it’s like the chorus is just going to keep coming." He added that little Bronx is destined to be a musician in the making. "You know he’s already got a little bass, he has a little piano."

And what about Bronx's first Christmas? Pete said, "I don’t think at one they matter that much to him, but they matter a lot to me, so I’m going to be there sweating it out, putting things together…the night before Christmas because I know that’s what my Dad did and I know that’s what I want to do."
