Drew Barrymore Opens Up About Recent Postpartum Depression

 

 

Drew Barrymore is on my the cover of PEOPLE magazine this week and in it, she opens up about family life with husband, art consultant Will Kopelman and their two daughters: 3-year old Olive, 3, and 18month-old Frankie. 

She also talks about having a brief bout of postpartum depression after she birthed Frankie. 

On experiencing postpartum depression after Frankie’s birth: “I didn’t have postpartum the first time so I didn’t understand it because I was like, ‘I feel great!’ The second time, I was like, ‘Oh, whoa, I see what people talk about now. I understand.’ It’s a different type of overwhelming with the second. I really got under the cloud. I just got right on the idea of, where do I need to be the most? Fifty-fifty would be ideal but life doesn’t work like that. Life is messy. It was just really challenging and I felt overwhelmed. I made a lot of decisions and I definitely changed my work life to suit my parenthood.”

On life after PPD, which was “short-lived, probably six months”: “It’s really important [to stay in the moment]. I was in the kids’ class with Frankie and Olive this morning and I started fretting about some piece of work news that was just stressful. You know, in like the Broadway Babies class and it’s the one-hit wonders day, and they’re singing I don’t even know what song, and we’re all doing our lollipop drums and I just thought, ‘Save it until after class.’ One thing at a time.”

Instagram Trolls Body Shamed Chrissy Teigen’s Baby Bump into Hiding…but Not Forever

chrissy and john legend

Chrissy Teigen got in her feelings recently when she shared her first bump photo on Instagram and got roasted in the comments. “Somebody is early to the party” she captioned her Instagram photo. Teigen and her husband singer/songwriter John Legend are expecting their first child after years of struggling to conceive.

Somebody is early to the party ???

A photo posted by chrissy teigen (@chrissyteigen) on

Most of her followers responded to how “big” her tiny bump was.  Some news outlets ran with stories suggesting she was pregnant with twins or triplets because she had “popped” so early in her pregnancy given that 13-week pregnancies usually don’t show many signs of a bump. The critical feedback led the model to tweet that she would no longer be talking about her pregnancy.



She also confirmed that she is only carrying one child.

 

But even she recognized that she is getting a bit back from her sharp tongue in the past when she used to constantly engage in Twitter beef with her fans. It’s Karma, she tweeted later, seemingly insinuating she was over the hurt feelings and admitting that she used to poke fun of round body parts of her friends plenty before getting pregnant.

Yeah, we don’t think she will resist giving up some bump love along the next few months. Ignore the haters, girl.  Embrace the positive feedback which usually outnumbers the critics but always get outshined by the naysayers.

Jersey Shore’s JWoww got Married, Announced 2nd Pregnancy, Gives up Reality TV to Be a Stay-at-home Mom

jersey shore cast grows up

Another MTV  Jersey Shore cast member has gone from wild, reckless party girl to a settled mom and wife!

This Weekend, Jennifer “JWoww” Farley married her longtime beau Roger Matthews who is the father of  her 14-month old daughter, Meilani.

E! News reports that the couple revealed during the wedding night party that JWoww is expecting their second child

“By far one of the best days of our lives outside Meilani being born,” the couple said to E! News shortly after their wedding. “So blessed to have our daughter share this day with us!”

Meilani served as the flower girl for the event, the entertainment website reports.

JWoww and her bestie Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi were featured cast members of the long running show about young adults that vacationed on the Jersey shore for the summer and a spin off about their new more domestic lives called Snooki and JWoww.

Snooki has announced that she will focus on her role as a mom for a while. She and her husband Jionni LaValle are parents to one-year old daughter Giovanna Marie and 3-year old son Lorenzo Dominic. The two married last year in November, a few months after their second child was born. JWoww was one of 15 bridesmaids at the “Great Gatbsy” themed wedding.

They are following in each other’s footsteps because JWoww too has said she will become a full time stay at home mother.

Congrats!

Kim Kardashian-West Canceled her Baby Shower to Support Lamar Odom during his Hospitalization

Kim Kardashian-West  was supposed to have a “Troop Beverly Hills” -themed baby shower this weekend at her friend, Allison Azoff’s, Beverly Hills’ estate.

The Keeping up With The Kardashians reality TV star canceled it to be with her sister Khloe Kardashian‘s estranged husband Lamar Odom, E! News  reports.

Last week, the ex NBA player who also starred in 20 seasons of the reality TV show Khloe and Lamar, was found unconscious in a Las Vegas brothel from an alleged overdose on a drug or a combination of drugs he took during his 4-day stay.

Although the couple have signed divorce papers, because they are not yet officially divorced, Khloe remained his next of kin and entitled to make medical decisions for him while Odom was incapacitated.

We loved seeing the couple together when they starred in the show and their love for one another seemed apparent. The marriage appears to have unraveled partially due to Odom’s toxic habits. This week, Khloe showed her devotion during his miraculous recovery.

It was great to see the entire Kardashian and Jenner family rally around Odom and ask their fans for prayers and support. It was unfortunate however, that there were scant stories reporting on Odom’s non-celebrity family, like his dad, grandmom and children’s comments and official statements.

But it is fair to assume, that the celebrity part of his life is what makes people care more and the Kardashian family are media magnets.

Tamar Braxton-Herbert is Slaying DWTS, Red Carpets & Street Fashion (PHOTOS)

Our Bellyitch Bumpwatch alum Tamar Braxton-Herbert has been slaying weekly on Dancing With The Stars.  The Tamar & Vince reality TV star and her pro partner are given top marks regularly this competition.

This co-host of the panel talk show The Real most likely will be the winner if not a finalist by the time this season wraps.

I am certainly loving her costumes. This flapper look is actually trending given how fringe is back in style. Ha!



And before this original cast member of VH1‘s The Braxtons was rocking the dance floor, she was werking it in some pretty stylish outfits while out and about or on the red carpet.

   



I loved this wrap shirt dress she wore to the “A Time to Laugh” event in August. The darker hair favors her more than the blonde I think.

But I admit the blond waves were the perfect accompaniment to this smart bandage skirt suit she wore at SONY Music Post Grammy Celebration in LA this February.

I also thought when she styled it in a bob, she had a very smart look as here when dining with her husband Vince Herbert at Craig’s restaurant in May.

This pink sleeveless wrap dress was saucy and ooh showing side boob. This was also in February at LA Reid‘s Grammy party. Seen here with music  executive Sylvia Rhone.  
This pic is from last year while she and Vince dined at Mastro’s in Cali but I share today because it’s boots season and these boots are hawt!

Finally, she rocked the deep v cut on this satin blue flare skirt mini dress with gold pumps at the Ford Neighborhood Awards on August this year.

It’s giving me majorette/Pageant talent/dance champion flare. Maybe it’s a fore shadowing. Hmmmm!

Hawt! Haute! Hot!
