Alyssa Milano has opened up about her struggle to return to her pre-pregnancy weight. The actress, who welcomed her daughter Elizabella in September, tweeted her frustration at shedding the last ten pounds on Monday night.

"This last 10-15 pounds of baby weight is a B***h," she wrote.

The Charmed actress' candid tweet prompted messages of support from fans, many of whom empathised with her, with one writing: "You've been doing so well. Plus you're just as beautiful at any weight."

Alyssa Milano tweeted her frustration at trying to lose weight

Alyssa previously appeared to be in no rush to lose her baby weight, telling Yahoo that her main priority was being healthy.

"I've had weight fluctuations my whole existence, so I'm just trying to stay healthy, trying to have the endurance to get through the day as a mom of two and not be too sleepy," Alyssa said.

Despite her frustration at losing the last ten pounds, Alyssa said she loves being a mother to Elizabella, eight months, and Milo, three, and opened up about the differences between the two children.

Alyssa Milano has two children with her husband Dave Bugliari

"It's so different having a girl than a boy," Alyssa told Yahoo. "My son always needed to be a participant in everything, even when he was a baby. He never missed a thing. With her, she's perfectly fine just observing. I'm not sure if it's because she's a girl, or because she's the second child, probably a little bit of both."

The 42-year-old also revealed that she chose not to relocate her family to Vancouver to continue work on her TV drama Mistresses, as she didn't want her husband Dave Bugliari to give up his job.

"I couldn't expect him to sacrifice his job and his livelihood to be in Vancouver," she said. "And, honestly, we're not the type of people that would separate the family. Not just for the kids, but also because we really like each other."
