Geri Halliwell loves being a mother.The former Spice Girl says becoming a mum to daughter Bluebell is the best thing that has ever happened to her.She revealed: "Bluebell is beautiful. I'm not in a hurry to go back to work I'm just busy and happy being a mummy." Geri, 34, who was swapping baby tips with fellow new mum pop singer Gwen Stefani in London last week, also claims she lost her post-baby weight by breastfeeding.The single mother explained to Britain's Mail on Sunday newspaper: "Breastfeeding means the weight has dropped off, but I still have got a bit to lose."Earlier this year, Geri told police that a nanny had physically abused Bluebell, who was born on March 7.The alleged incident occurred when Geri left her daughter in the care of a temporary member of staff when she went for a walk at a Hampshire golf club on August 18.
