Geez, you name your bouncing baby girl after a tasty and nutritious fruit and suddenly all hell breaks loose. Gwyneth Paltrow, back in the public eye for the first time since giving birth in May, says she's still confused over why her decision to dub her daughter Apple raised a ruckus.

"It conjured such a lovely picture for me -- you know, apples are so sweet and they're wholesome and it's biblical," she told Oprah Winfrey on Thursday, revealing it was husband Chris Martin who first suggested the appellation.

"And I just thought it sounded so lovely and ... clean. And I just thought, 'Perfect!'"

Not so lovely were the nearly three days of labor she endured before Apple made her grand entrance, although Gwyn's quite pleased with the end result. "I never could have anticipated the feeling ... it was like a tightly closed flower that just opened the second that I saw her," the Oscar winner gushes to Access Hollywood. "She just makes me so happy. It's just unbelievable."

Paltrow is so content these days she's not even stressed about losing the last little bit of baby weight. "I'm 10 pounds over what I normally weigh and I really like it. I mean, most of it's probably in my boobs -- I don't know what to do with them; they're taking over my life!" she tells Entertainment Tonight (the actress showed off her enhanced figure in a low-cut shirt at MTV's Video Music Awards Sunday night).

While Gwyneth has nixed dieting because she's breastfeeding, she has returned to her yoga and Pilates regimen and is sensibly taking off the pounds. And in an admission that many new moms will appreciate, she divulges that she briefly wore a girdle to suck in her belly when out in public.

Paltrow also says that she and Chris are flying solo as parents and have opted against getting a nanny, though she does have some temporary help while she promotes the retro sci-fi flick "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" (it's good -- go see it), which lands in theaters Sept. 17.
