This ‘One Direction’ Member & his Rebound Girlfriend Just had a Baby 

One Direction member Louis Tomlinson just welcomed a baby boy with a young woman he dated briefly right after he broke up with his long term girlfriend Eleanor Calder

Briana  Jungwirth met the 24-year old boy band singer last May but the two broke up soon after a brief relationship.

So in essence, some could say this is a “rebound” (or “jump off”) baby.

But the lad is a proud papa, US Weekly reports.

Tomlinson and Jungwirth remain friends, the site states.

Congrats to the new parents. No word on baby’s name yet.

VH1’s Reality TV Stars are Having a Baby Boom, but Each is Drama-Filled…READ THIS!

love and hip hop baby boom

I do not keep up with VH1’s Love and Hip Hop or its Basketball Wives franchises at all, but I did notice that those shows are having a little collective baby boom. (and there’s plenty of drama behind each, apparently).

Draya Michele

One of the original cast members Draya Michele, who is still on the show after 5 years since it launched in 2010, is expecting her first child with her fiance NFL’s Dallas Cowboys cornerback Orlando Scandrick but sadly the two have broken up.  The former model announced the news in a recent Instagram post that also featured a nude maternity portrait with her body covered in what looks like body cast plaster.

“I am a woman….. I’m creating life…. I’m proud and I’m happy,” she captioned the photo. “I don’t need materialistic things or the love and acceptance from anyone, now that I have you. I love you son.” Michele later edited the post to reflect both of her kids, Black Celeb Kids noted. Michele has an 11-year old son Kniko from a previous relationship with Washington Wizards player Gilbert Arenas.

“I’ve been hurt, abandoned, lied on, and disrespected,” the swimsuit designer wrote. “I’ve realized you can’t change people.. And the thing about rough times is, I’ve survived every single one.”

She finished off the announcement, “Today is a celebration for me …. I’ve made 6 months…. And I’m ok rejoicing alone. I have a son and another on the way, soon to be surrounded by 2 kings. Protectors.”

Michele is 6 months pregnant. Scandrick is dad to twins 5-year old Tatiana and Taylor from a previous relationship, thus, this will be his third child, and first son.

Masika Kalysha

Congratulations is also due to Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood star Masika Kalysha who is expecting a baby girl this year. The baby’s father is rapper Fetty Wap (Real name Willie Maxwell) who has refused to take a paternity test to confirm that he is indeed the dad.

“I tried to demand him taking a paternity test,” Kalysha told Us Weekly. “He doesn’t want to take one. I asked him seven times, ‘Will you just volunteer and do it?’ He refuses.”

However, Wap has told TMZ he wants a paternity test.

The break out rapper, famously know for his summer hit and having one working eye, is dad to son Zoovier and daughter Zaviera.

Due to the estranged nature of the couple’s relationship, Kalysha complained on social media that she had struggled with harassment from Fetty’s fans.

“Ever since I made my announcement, the idiot corner (including petty wap) has been in their deepest of feelings running a muck all over the internet with their key board thuggery,” she wrote on her blog. “I was in a committed relationship, with a man who initially got me pregnant.”

Tara Wallace

Wallace is a cast member of Love & Hip Hop New York who has been in an on-again-off-again 13-year relationship with cast mate, rapper Peter Gunz (real name Peter Pankey). She announced her pregnancy on a recent episode of the show.

She then took to Instagram to share a artistic nude maternity portrait which included an Elizabeth Stone quote: “Making the decision to have a baby is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.”

Wallace has a Bachelor’s degree in theater and a Master of Fine Arts degree in Acting from New York’s Actors Studio Drama School.

Gunz is currently married to fellow show cast member and our Bellyitch Bumpwatch alum Amina Buddafly. The two have a child together; and he has several children from previous relationships. Buddafly welcomed daughter on July 29, 2014.

The love triangle is pretty messy and hard to keep up with but the drama is somewhat addressed at The YBF HERE!

Wow!  Congrats for all the upcoming new arrivals and we’re wishing a safe labor and delivery to all the expecting moms.

Side note: I wanted to add, all in this group make up a virtual United Nations of nationalities. Buddafly is German  with a Senegalese father, Michele is half Italian, Wap’s kids mom, Reese, is half Guatemalan. Wap’s grandmom is Haitian. Kalysha claims French Creole heritage. “We are the world” indeed, but only to clean up some of this messy drama now….oy!

The Swedish Royals are Having Their Own Baby Boom

the swedish royals

Prince Carl and his wife Princess Sofia are expecting their first child after marrying last June 2015. Crown Princess Victoria and her husband Prince Daniel are expecting their second child. They are parents to almost 3-year old Princess Estelle.

I have been slacking. I tried to do my best to showcase other nations’ royal births other than Duchess Kate and Prince William of Great Britain. I managed to cover most of Crown Princess Victoria of Swedens first pregnancy and a bit of her baby sister Princess Madeleine’s first pregnancy, but then I slacked off big time!

Now, look! There’s a double bumpwatch going on among the Swedish royals.

Victoria is pregnant with her second child right alongside her sister-in-law Princess Sofia, who is married to Victoria’s younger brother Prince Carl Philip.  Carl and Sofia married last June and didn’t waste much time to usher in another heir to the throne.

Baby sister Princess Madeleine and her husband New York businessman Christopher O’Neill have an almost 2-year old daughter Princess Leonora, born in February 2014, and a 7-month old son Prince Nicolas, born last June 2015.

Victoria is mom to 3-year old Princess Estelle, also born in February, in 2013.

Sofia is now 6 months along and Victoria also expects her baby to be delivered in March.  Victoria’s children will inherit the throne first because she is heir apparent, and one of only 4 female heir apparent in monarchs world wide.

King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia will be delighted at all the new grands coming this Spring.

Royals for everyone!

Attachment Parenting: The Best Celeb Trend Has Got to Be Slings

celeb slings

I love slings as baby carriers so it was great to see new mom Coco Austin toting her newborn Chanel Nicole in one in a recent Instagram share.  She’s been spending a lot of time traveling back and forth from her home in California to Chicago where her husband IceT‘s show Law and Order: SVU  tapes.

“Leaving Chicago….This how we roll,” the TV host and reality TV star captioned the photo.

Bravo! Celebrities are influential and trend-setters. I’m so happy to see that over the past decade or so, many have embraced attachment parenting through baby-wearing slings.

Slings, in my opinion, are better for cradling the natural curve and spine of a new baby compared to those baby carriers which separate baby’s legs and pelvis and have them suspended from a very odd and uncomfortable position.

Because babies cannot talk so many have been forced to endure life strapped in the most uncool spots on their mama’s or papa’s chest. Some new parents do not even bother to pay attention to the warning on the labels of those carriers recommended they be used for babies who can hold their heads up on their own.

I’ve seen so many babies with their heads dangling on the side due to undeveloped neck muscles. When I see it in the malls or at the park, I have to hold myself back from giving them some unsolicited advice.

If I were rich, I’d gift all new moms (and dads) I see with their baby hold up in such contraptions a brand new sling. But I am not so I will just settle for hoping those who watch and emulate celebrities will take cues from Coco and the like and use a sling when they have a new baby.

Expecting Twins: Terricka and Post-Vasectomy Antonio Cromartie, the most Fertile Man on the Earth (CAUTION: Shade-Filled Post Ahead)

cromartie

We’re going to go on a limb and say it. NFL player Antonio Cromartie has got to be the most fertile man on the earth because even after reportedly undergoing a vasectomy, he managed to impregnate his wife with twins who will become his 11th and 12th child….again.

Stick with us a little here.

Back in April 2012, Cromartie’s wife Terricka Cromartie (nee Cason) tweeted that she and Antonio were expecting twins that November 2012.

“Without the lies i’ll tell u anything u want to kno just ask me.. I”ve always been an up front person.. Oh yea we are expecting twins in Nov,” Terricka wrote in a tweet announcing the twins’ due date.  That tweet too has since been deleted.

We reported it and so did other outlets like NecoleBitchie (now xoNecole) . The news was picked up by the New York Daily News and the NY Post who linked to the Instagram image of a sonogram of the twins that Terricka posted. (now deleted).

She accepted congratulations about the twins and even tweeted “Twins run in my family.” (tweets since been deleted)

She never delivered twins in 2012.

But then, this past October, Terricka told US Weekly that again she and the New York Jets cornerback are expecting twins but she added that she was surprised to learn she was expecting because her sportsman hubby had a vasectomy in 2011.

“I really thought I was dreaming, even after, I was just in total disbelief,” she told Us about a trip to the emergency one night over what she thought was severe cramping. “I didn’t even tell Antonio right away because I didn’t think it was possible…I was going back and forth in my head how it could even happen. In my head we were good to go, we were having free sex! I just really thought that his procedure was the best protection you could have at this point.”

Terricka told the magazine that Antonio too was shocked.

“Originally, he was like, ‘Oh, s–t! Are you serious? How did this happen?'” Terricka said. “It was shocking news for the both of us. It took me a while to process it, but Antonio stood firm and was saying, ‘It’s God’s will.’ And he’s been excited the whole time.”

Well…hmmm. If he got her pregnant with twins in 2012, then neither of them should be too surprised Antonio did it again 3 years later. scratches head

In all seriousness, however, condolences may be in order here if Terricka perhaps lost the babies (or baby) due in November 2012. The tweet was made perhaps at the 8-10 week point in her pregnancy, at that critical point during pregnancies when miscarriage is common.

It has been a bumpy road for the couple because the NY Post reported when Terricka was 7-months pregnant with their second child, she sent Antonio fake suicide texts leading him to call 911 emergency paramedics who arrived to find Terricka fine in bed with her daughters. She later confessed to officers that she did it to get attention of Antonio who she suspected was cheating at the time and submitted to an involuntary psych eval.

But still, back to this pregnancy, what are the odds really, though, of getting pregnant with twins twice by a man who had a vasectomy? That’s got to be a medical miracle…or someone botched his procedure (or someone maybe isn’t being honest).

According to WebMD, a vasectomy is an 99.85% effective birth control method. Only one to two women out of 1,000 will have an unplanned pregnancy in the first year after their partner has had a vasectomy, the site said.

Terricka later tweeted (now deleted) that she was not expecting twins and perhaps set up the media with a bogus claim Larry Brown Sports suggested in 2012, or not. Who knows.

Nonetheless, Terricka considers this miracle pregnancy a blessing.

“To be honest, I’ve gone back and forth about if I wanted to share the news or not,” she told the gossip magazine. “All my children are blessings and all of Antonio’s children are blessings, for that matter. It was made to seem that my children weren’t a blessing because they were categorized by a number, and for that reason and that reason alone, I hid both of my [first two] pregnancies with my husband, just so I could enjoy them with those who were really happy for me.”

terricka and cromartie

This will be the 4th and 5th child for the couple, together. They are parents to 3-year old son Jagger and 5-year old daughter Jurzie (love that name!).

Terricka has a daughter, Jordynn, from a previous relationship. Cromartie has 8 children from 8 previous relationships.

15N_CROMARTIE_IPAD-525x700 (1)

The NY Post created this Graphic in 2012 that Terricka has says is wrong.

Facts only:

After famously dissing the 8 baby mamas for trying to make money by doing a reality TV about blended families and how all 8 women and their children get along well and have a great relationship, Terricka is now leading the new reality TV show she and Antonio are shooting which will launchpad off their book about blended families the couple is working on, US Weekly reports.

slow blink

Recall, the reality show the baby mamas were trying to do could not be greenlit because Antonio refused to grant permission for his children to be featured in it.

Oh.

If Hillary Wins, We Expect Her Right-Hand Aide Huma Abedin to Bring it…Fashion Wise, that is ( LOOK!)

huma look

Thursday night was the 6th Republican Presidential Debate. I couldn’t watch it because  I was working, but while doing some preliminary reading about it,  I did notice that Vanity Fair did a piece on a political Bellyitch Bumpwatch alum recently.  No, not currently preggers Chelsea Clinton, but her mom Hillary Clinton’s longtime aide, Huma Abedin.

huma6

In his piece writer William Cohan asks whether Abedin, who is married to former New York rep Anthony Weiner, will be an asset or hindrance to the former Secretary of State’s campaign to become the next president of the United States.

huma 2

Cohan explores how Abedin is so good at her job that she is indispensable and was able to survive the scandal of her husband being disgraced after revelation about inappropriate social media exchanges with young women. She is the ultimate DC VIP. 

huma 4
I’m not sure Hillary could walk out the door without Huma,” Cohan quotes Clinton adviser Mandy Grunwald, who told Vogue’s Rebecca Johnson eight years ago that Abedin is “a little like Radar on MASH. If the air-conditioning is too cold, Huma is there with the shawl. She’s always thinking three steps ahead of Hillary.”

It was an interesting piece that you can read HERE if you want to learn more.

Abedin is featured in a Glamour feature on the women behind the 2016 Presidential campaigns

I’m just using the opportunity to revisit the statuesque and very fashionable Washington insider for the sole purpose of showcasing again that fab spread Vogue did on her back in 2007 before giving birth to her first and only child, a son, 4-years ago. Remember this:

Fab!

If Clinton does in fact win, Abedin may also survive the extra scrutiny that comes with being the right hand to a party nominee. (She had to testify in the Benghazi hearings  last fall and was previously accused as having ties to the controversial Muslim Brotherhood).

She’s set to become the second most important woman in the world. She would be  like Valerie Jarrett to President Barack Obama.

Anyway, fashion-wise, we expect her to bring it.  We’re here for it. All of it!
