It’s Wedding Anniversary Season And James Arthur’s New Song is Perfect

A lot of people get married in August, therefore a lot of your friends who are still hanging in there are celebrating their wedding anniversary this month. I was heading home today, and a familiar song I’ve heard many many times came on the radio.

For some reason, I never paid attention to the lyrics but today I did. Wow! They really are the perfect words for a husband to dedicate to his wife. Or any partner to the other really.

I love it. If you haven’t heard it, here is the music video for it and the lyrics below that! Enjoy!



I met you in the dark

You lit me up

You made me feel as though

I was enough

We danced the night away

We drank too much

I held your hair back when

You were throwing up

Then you smiled over your shoulder

For a minute I was stone-cold sober

I pulled you closer to my chest

And you asked me to stay over

I said, I already told you

I think that you should get some rest

I knew I loved you then

But you’d never know

‘Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go

I knew I needed you

But I never showed

But I wanna stay with you

Until we’re grey and old

Just say you won’t let go

Just say you won’t let go

I wake you up with some

Breakfast in bed

I’ll bring you coffee

With a kiss on your head

And I’ll take the kids to school

Wave them goodbye

And I’ll thank my lucky stars

For that night

When you looked over your shoulder

For a minute I forget that I’m older

I wanna dance with you right now, oh

And you look as beautiful as ever

And I swear that every day you get better

You make me feel this way somehow

I’m so in love with you

And I hope you know

Darling, your love is more than worth its weight in gold

We’ve come so far, my dear

Look how we’ve grown

And I wanna stay with you

Until we’re grey and old

Just say you won’t let go

Just say you won’t let go

I wanna live with you

Even when we’re ghosts

‘Cause you were always there for me

When I needed you most

I’m gonna love you ’til

My lungs give out

I promise ’til death we part

Like in our vows

So I wrote this song for you

Now everybody knows

That it’s just you and me

Until we’re grey and old

Just say you won’t let go

Just say you won’t let go

Just say you won’t let go

Oh, just say you won’t let go

Serena Williams is Unapologetically Team Epidural

Serena Williams is honest AF about pregnancy, labor and delivery and becoming a mother for the first time.

During her infamous Vogue interview this month, the tennis champ also came out and let it be known that she is “Team Epidural“.

“I’m nervous about childbirth. I’m not a spring chicken,” she told the magazine. “The one thing I really want is an epidural, which I know a lot of people are against, but I’ve had surgeries galore, and I don’t need to experience any more pain if I can avoid it.”

Here here!!

If anyone follows you the “Mommy Wars” they’d know that there is a whole community and culture of natural child birth proponents that argue fervently against the use of medicine like local anesthesia to relive the excruciating pain of child birth.

It is so extreme that some women actually feel ashamed to express publicly and openly that they intend to get an epidural, which is local anesthesia injected in the spine to numb the feeling in one’s legs and torso.

The Natural Childbirth movement has been described as a cult in the past but it is really just women (and a community) that are passionate about childbirth being as close to nature intended it to be as possiblez

It isn’t for everyone and that should be okay.

Go ahead Serena and be a G about it!

The business woman and first-time mom-to-be  with  fiancé Alexis Ohanian has taken a lot of heat in that same Vogue interview for expressing that being a mother will classify as a woman.

She is unapologetic about her feelings as a hormonal pregnant woman should be!

Stay true, mama!

Former ‘The Bachelor’ Winner Vienna Girardi Lost Her Twin Girls at 18 Weeks

The winner from The Bachelor, Season 14, Vienna Girardi announced on Facebook Sunday that she lost the twin girls she was carrying  18 weeks into her pregnancy.

Girardi, who was engaged to her beau of three years Todd Allen, said that she underwent emergency surgery after she lost the twins on August 5, sharing that she was in the ICU for four days and at one point had a 104 degree fever.

“I went in for an ultra sound bc the Perinatologist notice one of my twins had more fluids than the other which was the first sign of TTTS (Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome) this is when one twin takes more nutrients than the other. They said that it did look like it had improved over the last week though,” she wrote. “Unfortunately, that was not the case and that evening my water broke due to the amniotic sacs rupturing. I spent the next 2 days in the hospital trying everything to save them.”

She continued, “I don’t know why this happened and I pray the Lord gives me strength to understand why he needed my little girls.”

People reported that Girardi announced her pregnancy in June by posting an ultrasound photo on Instagram with the caption: “Twice the Blessing, Twice the Fun.”

Girardi was previously engaged to Bachelor Jake Pavelka, after winning his final rose on season 14 of the ABC dating show. Shortly after their messy split, Girardi appeared on Bachelor Pad 2, where she romanced Bachelorette alum Kasey Kahl, according to Entertainment Tonight.

 

Kim Kardashian West Doesn’t Let Mommy-Shamers Get Away With It (VIDEO)

Kim Kardashian West is no stranger to being mommy-shamed. She gets it all the time, but unlike a lot of celebs who may just let the haters hate, the reality TV star and biz mom uses her media domination to respond to her critics.

In an August 10, 2017-released video, she replies to those who took shots at her for posting a photo of her son Saint West in the back seat of a vehicle in a forward-facing position.

She explains that Saint is actually the weight and height required for an child to be in that position.

“Saint actually weighs more than North” she says. “If that is believable he does, and it is wild.”

As a mom to some heavy babies, I know moms of color maybe would agree because it is often the experience that their kids are in clothes that are for much older babies and boys often are larger and heavier than girls so yeah, we can dig it.

Watch Kim explain:

Blac Chyna Wins the Award For Switching Up Her Look The Most

These days, our Bellyitch Bumpwatch alum Blac Chyna (real name: Angela Renee White) is sporting cornrows and Braids.

But is she?

The online and reality TV personality switches up her hair more than we  can count.

We imagine most of the looks are wigs this why story can be changed from day to day.

Our fave is the recent wavy crimson hair the Rob and Chyna alum paired with black lipstick.

The biz woman is mom to 9-month old daughter Dream with ex-fiancé Rob Kardashian and 5-year old son King Cairo with ex-fiancé rapper Tyga (real name: Michae Ray l Nguyen-Stevenson.)

Katherine Heigl Shares her Post-Pregnancy Weight Loss Plan

Grey’s Anatomy alum Katherine Heigl is a veteran adopted new mom to a first born 7-month old and now she is blogging and sharing her journey to shed the 50 pounds she gained while pregnant.

“My best weight loss advice is to start every morning by saying out loud a positive mantra of your choice about your body. Mine is ‘I am easily, with good health, inspiration, grace and gratitude losing weight faster than I can even imagine with harm to none,’ ” the Doubt star said in her PEOPLE magazine blog.

“Then I say my gratefuls. Thanking my body for it’s perfect health, strength, limberness, vibrancy, youthfulness and beauty. Whether I always believe these things about myself and my body or not, I say them. By saying them out loud with love and gratitude I have found that I not only start to believe them, but my body exhibits what I say and believe.”

Beside her new baby Joshua Bishop with hubby Josh Kelly, the Knocked Up star has two daughters through adoption, but giving birth to son ntroduced her to the world of pregnancy — and its crazy changes to her body.

Heigl admitted that the 50-lb. weight gain left her with “moments of sheer panic.”

The baby weight dropped after delivery helped but not that much

“I had hoped to only gain 25-30 pounds like my mother during her pregnancies but found that just wasn’t possible for me,” she wrote. “Despite starting my gestation out on a pregnancy friendly meal plan and hiking my butt off 5 days a week my weight kept creeping up.”

Heigl continued, “At a certain point, probably around 4 months I gave up the struggle and tried instead to respect my body’s needs and trust my instincts.”

She said she is learning  to love her body as is.

And she won’t let it discourage her from growing her family through adoption or trying to get pregnant.

 

 

Jessica Alba Hosted East Hampton Launch and Charity Event

Third-time mom-to-be Jessica Alba hosted an event last Saturday, August 5 with her company, The Honest Company as part of a collaboration and new partnership with her stylist team at the Great and the diaper and newborn essentials collection for impoverished women charity  Baby2Baby.

At the East Hampton event, stylists and designers Emily Current and Merritt Elliott celebrated the launch of their upcoming limited-edition diaper collection for The Honest Company under a fun and quirky  decorated Sperry tent.

Our other Bellyitch Bumpwatch alums Molly Sims and Rachel Zoe were there as well.

“Em, Mer, and I have been working together for a while,”  Alba explained to Vogue magazine. “They have been my stylists for a few years now. They [also] do a collection for Pottery Barn, they started a brand called Current Elliott, and then a second brand they started is called The Great. We did a lot of sharing about being women entrepreneurs and having young families. We all have kiddos, and we talked about how do you try and do it all. Often, we feel like we’re compromising something, and we can’t do it all. We talked about how powerful would it be to collaborate and do something really cool and give back. [Our friend] Kelly Sawyer runs Baby2Baby, which is now a national diaper bank program that gives back the basic essentials to families in need, things that we really take for granted—everything from diapers and wipes to lotions to backpacks and shoes. Things that we probably don’t think twice about, but there are millions of families in this country that literally have to choose between food or diapers or they reuse dirty diapers throughout the day.”

Fun times!

Also, her two daughters Haven Garner and Honor Marie were in attendance  at the event which raised money for the no profit on which Zoe, Sims and Alba are board members.

Jurnee Smollett-Bell’s TV Show ‘Underground’ Incorporated Her Pregnancy Into the Script

Who knew that when Jurnee Smollett-Bell was filming the second season of her hit WGN TV show about 1850s era slavery Underground that she was heavily pregnant with her first child?

We didn’t and are late to the game! That was one of the revelations shared this Spring with Elle magazine in an interview about her and son’s participation in a GAP commercial for the Every Mother Counts campaign to make pregnancy and childbearing safe for women around the world.

“Yeah, we started shooting for seven months pregnant,” reveals Smollett-Bell, who has had cast appearances in the last season of Parenthood.  “I had a midwife on set, and on the show, I’m pregnant the entire season. They had to write it into the script because it was just so visible. We wrapped our season literally two weeks before I went into labor.”

She added that it was great that being a pregnant actress didn’t stop her from work.

“And for me, it’s such an otherworldly experience to be pregnant and at the same time, to live out my dreams as an actress,” the Eve’s Bayou actor and True Blood alum said. “It felt really empowering as a woman. There’s a misconception we have to choose career or motherhood. Look, you need a lot of help, of course, but I was so glad I didn’t have to choose. I could embrace all that I love at the same time growing this baby inside of me that I love more than anything. I think that sets a powerful example.

The show has since been canceled though there is a campaign to get the show back for a third season though it lost its host, and Oprah Winfrey has said her OWN channel cannot afford to pick it up! We hope some channel does soon! It’s great TV that deserves to continue!
