Ice and Coco debuted today and during it, the blonde bombshell wife of gansta rapper turned actor ICE-T (Law & Order) revealed that she is 21 weeks pregnant (over 5 months).
The reality show couple of the now-defunct ICE loves Coco also shared that they are expecting a little girl who they have decided to name Chanel.
The premiere of the new daily talk show also featured a couple of our Bellyitch Bumpwatch alums.
Tamar Braxton-Herbert and her husband Vince Herbert stopped by as did Nicole “Snooki’ Pollizzi who talked about how motherhood changed her old partying ways.
Who can believe this woman is 5 months preggers!?! Wow!
I am happy for them but a little peeved to hear Coco sort of dismiss the salient advice OB/GYNs and other medial and fertility specialists give to women who are advancing in age.
Cocoa said, “a lot of people ask what took us so long [to conceive]” and it’s because I wanted to wait, she said, mentioning that she wanted her companies to be successful and saw herself being pregnant at age 35. That was the magic number and she wanted to have a baby by then.
“People put things in your ear,” Coco said about all the warning society gives to women of child-bearing age.
“I’ve been on the pill for 17 years and they scare you, they told me I should freeze my eggs,” she added. “I called my gynecologists, she said ‘get off the pill and it would take a year for your body to regulate’… and it took a month and a half.”
ICE jumped in with his machismo humor to say, that he could “make a baby like a brick wall.”
“I’m so blessed,” she concluded. “Baby, I’m so blessed”
Congrats to them but the reality is that not so many women are fortunate. Fertility struggles are real and people put things in your ear on the odd case that you aren’t among the fortunate ones like Coco and Ice who could easily conceive.
Finally, those women not being able to conceive doesn’t mean they are less “blessed.”
Good for them both! Congrats!
