Celebrity Mama-to-Be featuring Halle Berry

153512234

Congratulations to Halle Berry and beau Oliver Martinez! The couple were married over the weekend. They held a quaint ceremony in a village church in France’s Burgundy region.

Already a mother to a five-year old daughter, the pregnant actress, Halle Berry, who was recently interviewed back in April by CNN, describes her pregnancy as the “biggest surprise of my life”. She noted, ““I thought I was kind of past the point where this could be a reality for me”. However, Halle Berry also noted that she “feels fantastic!”

In the interview, she went on to explain how her pregnancy made her think more about the pre-natal healthy of her baby. “Especially now, being a pregnant woman and already having a child … it’s so important what happens to the baby while they’re in utero. And the first 1,000 days is fundamental,” said Berry. She revealed her pregnancy has inspired her to act on behalf of hungry children and pregnant women who struggle with maintaining proper nutrition during pregnancy, teaming up with the Word Food Programme in the fight against hunger.

We’d like to commend Halle Berry for being an inspiration for mothers who believe that a healthy life starts in the womb.

Celebrity Mama-to-Be: Jaime Ray Newman

Congratulations to Jaime Ray Newman who’s expecting a baby girl sometime this August. The actress and her husband recently celebrated the oncoming arrival of their daughter with a rooftop baby shower bash over the weekend. At the event, the actress and star of ABC’s Red Widow, opened up to Celebrity Baby Scoop in an interview about her pregnancy and thoughts on becoming a mom.

When asked for her thoughts on her pregnancy, Newman commented, “Thankfully, I’ve been feeling really good. Now I’m starting to slow down and my feet are getting a little tired, but up until now I’ve had a lot of energy and I’ve felt great! I love being pregnant.

Newman also appears to be ecstatic for her approaching motherhood. On what she looks forward to the most as a mom, the actress said, “All of the endless nights of sleep I am going to get. [laughs] I am just excited to have something bigger than me and Guy out there. You get so self-involved and wrapped up in yourself, especially in our business, so it will be really nice to have something more significant than us.”

Celebrity Yoga Instructor and Mama-to-Be—Kristin McGee

Kristin McGee hasn’t let her pregnancy slow her down from what she loves—yoga. As a fitness trainer to the stars, Kristin McGee stresses the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle during pregnancy with exercise being one of the key ingredients. In a recent segment on the Daytime Show, Kristin McGee said, “I have been doing Pilates and yoga throughout my pregnancy and I feel wonderful.”

On her blog, she recommends several different workouts and yoga poses for pregnant women to try out that help relieve pregnancy back pains and increases blood flow in the pelvic area but at the same time she warns to stay away from really deep twists that cross the midline of your belly.

Congrats to Kristin on her first child, due this month! Thanks for inspiring pregnant ladies to be healthy and fit.

Celebrity Mama-to-Be: Michelle Monaghan

Congratulations to Michelle Monaghan!

Already a mother to a 4-year-old girl named Willow Katherine and slated to star in three upcoming films in 2013, actress Michelle Monaghan has just announced over the weekend that she’s expecting a second child due sometime later this fall.

In an earlier interview with Women’s Health magazine back in 2010, Monaghan talked about the experiences of being a mother for the first time. She shared her thoughts on being a working mom, “On my kitchen counter sits a KitchenAid mixer, a potty seat, and a small pile of scripts…That pretty much sums it up. I’m a homemaker, a potty trainer, and a part-time pretender.”

She also talked about her lifestyle changes due to the arrival of her first daughter, “For the first time, I thought about my well-being. Now I’m trying to instill healthy eating habits in my daughter, so by default my husband and I are eating healthier.”

So for our mamas-to-be out there, or already mamas, do you feel as if your pregnancy has provided some extra motivation to make some lifestyle changes you wouldn’t have thought about before? Tell us on Facebook!

 

Fashion Friday Featuring Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian just can’t seem to catch a break when it comes to news surrounding her pregnancy or her recent weight gain due to her pregnancy. Tabloids have been less than kind to Kim about her fuller figure. Star magazine has gone as far as calling Kim’s 65-pound weight gain as “nightmare”.

And that’s only the start of it.

In Touch also has been claiming Kim is eating uncontrollably while at the same time putting herself on a grueling diet while pregnant, giving the suggestion that she may be a bad mother.

Ever since Kim Kardashian announced her pregnancy, she’s been living life underneath the microscope of public scrutiny. Sure, some may argue that Kim falls into one of those categories of people that welcome press, both good and bad, but there’s definitely a point when enough is enough. Celebrity or not, Kim deserves a little space, does she not?
