Actress Jeri Ryan Cries Over Ending Maternity Leave

Originally posted 03/27/2009 07:00AM

She put her acting on hold for a year so she could be at home with her new daughter, Gisele – and Jeri Ryan lost her pregnancy weight. But now that she is back to work, for a role on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, the actress calls the adjustment "rough."

"I cried," Ryan, 41, admitted about the first time she left day Gisele in Los Angeles to go to work on the NBC show in New York. "It was especially hard since I've been with her nonstop since she was born."

The actress, who'll play "ball-busting" attorney Parice Larue in the episode to air April 7, terms her time as a stay-at-home mom as idyllic. "Gisele loves to be outdoors, and we garden together," says Ryan, whose vegetable garden includes broccoli, cabbage and carrots.
