I am so serious when I say "please Britney get help"! It is such a shame to watch her life unfold this way. Here is the story according to AOL News today....

"LOS ANGELES (Jan. 31) - Britney Spears was taken from her home by ambulance early Thursday and escorted to the hospital by more than a dozen police officers in cars, on motorcycles and in helicopters.

A Los Angeles police officer, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak on the matter, said the 26-year-old pop star was being taken to the hospital to "get help." The Los Angeles Times cited unidentified authorities who said Spears was being placed on a "mental evaluation hold."

"She went willingly. It was like something in her heart was telling her she should go. She knew something was wrong," told Britney confidant Sam Lutfi to PEOPLE." read more..

I remember back to the JT and Britney days and how happy she looked. It must be hard to be so successful at such a young age. So many child stars have grown up with such problems.

I truly hope that she comes out of this healthy and happy again.

I am devestated by the reports that Mathew McConaughey is having a baby with his girlfriend Camilla Alves. I read this at Inside Fatherhood....

 

Matthew McConaughey announced on his website that he and girlfriend Camilla Alves are expecting a child together. The child will most likely surf and play bongos.

 

“My girlfriend Camila and I made a baby together. … It’s 3 months growin’ in her womb and all looks healthy and lively so far. We are stoked and wowed by this miracle of creation and gift from God …”

Honestly, I could care less that he is about to become a father, but I had dreams that it would be with Kate Hudson. I just love those two together. They just look like the perfect couple. I know...who am I to say. I just happen to LOVE the movie "How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days". That is one of my all time favorites.

I don't know about you, but if people were constantly asking if I was pregnant when I wasn't I would have a terrible complex. If they are asking it can only be because my stomach was sticking out and showed through my clothes. They may as well just come right out and say you are looking a little chubby these days.

I'm guessing J Lo is feeling a case of the chubs right now by what I read today at Pregnancy Weekly's Blog called Jennifer Lopez In Maternity Wear.....

"Could J Lo be pregnant? I mean her outfits definitely look like maternity wear. But why is she saying that she is definitely not pregnant when her wardrobe is telling us something else?"

She claims that she's not over and over again. If I were her, I would start wearing some tight shirts to show the skinny belly that we all that she has. I will say that I guess I could put up with the questions if I were making the same paycheck as J Lo.

It is bad enough when a mother loses custody of her children but how bad is it to have your children taken away and given to Kevin Federline? Am I wrong or did he not leave a child and a pregnant wife for Britney? Wow, this world we live in....I'll be honest with you I am disgusted by this whole turn of events.

So many infertile couples want children so badly and people that have no problem getting pregnant, do not take care of the babies they have. Go figure.

I have so many fond memories of when I brought my first child home. I also have some really bad ones that made me regret motherhood.(back then, not now) You attend all of the birthing classes to help through delivery but nothing prepares you for the first six weeks with your new baby. My niece just had a baby three weeks ago and I am watching her go through trials of being a mom for the first time. I think that every new mom tries to act so happy but inside is thinking what have I done. I was reading a great blog post at Strollerderby today called, Tori Spelling On Nursing Difficulties And That Pesky Weight and wanted to share it with you.......

On breastfeeding:

"It's been a little difficult... I didn't know this before, but sometimes you don't produce...  So I supplement with a bottle to get and he found out that the bottle is easier to consume, it's faster and comes right to you. He doesn't have to do all the work. So, he started to [nurse] angry. He'd be pounding on the boob (with his fists)... And then he got to the point where he realized, 'Well, no matter what I do she's going to stick me on that thing,' - which, it is literally larger than his head - so now he's kind of learned to pacify me and kinda just sit there and suck on it until he can get to his bottle."

Tori also relayed her experience with one of the most horrifyingly depressing things that can happen to any postpartum woman: she was mistaken for a pregnant woman. 

I was in the market last week and some woman approached me, she said, 'The baby!,' and I was like, 'Oh yeah,' thinking he had been on the cover of Us Magazine, and she walked up and said, 'Can I touch him?' and grabbed my belly. And then it got worse. I was like, "Oh no no, he was born 5 weeks ago!' and she goes, 'OH! You still have the belly.' I said, 'Yeah, I'm feeling good.' And she's like, 'Don't worry, it will go away - well I mean mine hasn't yet and my kid's 18, but...(shrugs shoulders)."

See ladies, even the celebrities go through some difficult times. My advice to every first time mom is to make sure you know that you are not alone in the feelings that go with bringing home a newborn. All of a sudden your life is not your own, you are sleep deprived, hormones are out of control and this precious being is consuming every single minute of the day and night. Luckily everything calms down and you will be able to look back and remember how wonderful it was to become a mom.

We were just wondering, along with the bloggers at Baby Fashion Gift Blog, what has made celebrity babies and their accessories so fascinating this past year?   According to Danielle, at Celebrity Baby Blog, in an interview with MSNBC, she explains the fact that so many A-list celebrities are already so hyped up in the media that the anticipation of baby's arrival puts the baby in the spotlight even before he/she arrives.

"Lullaby Loot" is what they're calling the baby goodies in Tinsel Town these days and moms like Madonna and Brittany are cashing in on some really cool baby items that even a non-celebrity mom like me can afford for my little "star".

Petunia Petunia thinks all children are beyond ordinary and their chic, hand knit and crocheted baby items offer graphic icons and vigorous colors to otherwise ordinary baby bed linens and accessories. I love the Knitted Tooth Fairy Pillow and evidently, celebrity moms are snatching this item up faster than a child can say, "I lost a tooth!"

While babies are becoming a Hollywood accessory in themselves so is baby's footwear. Toddler Treads, a particular favorite of Angelina Jolie and Gweneth Paltrow, are so functional and comfortable for a toddler that they have become a "must have" on the list of celebrity baby shower gifts.
