well dressed pregnant celebrities

Celebrities are lucky to have camera catch them at their best and their worst when their baby bump is first showing. Lastely actress Alyssa Milano, at age 38, is starting to really wear clothes that accentuate her baby bump instead of hiding it like she was before. Like any older first time baby creator she said, "I think that's the scariest time because you always have it in the back of your head that you could miscarriage at any point. Other than the time I was on that witch TV series, I would say this was my scariest time."

I don't know, wait till you change the baby's first diaper, that could be even scarier.

Kim Zolciak, cast member of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" is so willing to show off, she's showing off her huge baby bump for all to see. She appeas on the cover of this week's Life & Style in a purple bikini, and also appears inside the magazine in a sexy pink two-piece.

Do you think any of these moms are going to worry about the environment and carry organic baby products, or just stick with standard diapers instead of cloth diapers? I think it makes sense for them to take a look at companies like NurtureCenter.com and numerous other baby retailers that care for the environment first, & your baby 2nd.

How about some former big name celebrities that have just had children, like Tonya Harding is ready to tackle motherhood.  The disgraced former figure skating champ and her husband, Joseph Price, welcomed a bouncing baby boy Saturday in a Southwest Washington hospital. Surely the ice skating baby will not follow in his mother's dark past and take to biting ankles at a young age.

Stylist to the stars, Rachel Zoe, is in the last stages of preparing for her upcoming birth and celebrated the big occasion at a baby shower only a week ago. Even before her baby pops out, she has one more key client coming up: Anne Hathaway dress for the 2011 Sunday's Academy Awards. Rachel, who skipped New York Fashion Week this season, was spotted out in LA with her growing baby bump -- no doubt running errands to prepare for the Oscars

Which celebrities do you think are showing their baby bump the best, who is just making baby noise and looks horrible?

 

Preparing For A New Baby

When having a new baby, it may be very confusing to try to figure out everything that you will need. Even with all sorts of help, shopping for Baby can be very complicated. Whether you are adding items to a registry or are shopping on your own, the ideas following can be of help. While not everything that you will need is included, the thoughts can help get you going.

Before looking for all of the small things for baby, it is good to think about the big items. The crib is one of the most important. The difficult thing is to know where to start. A convertible crib is a good choice for the future. This type of crib can change into a toddler bed, so you can use it for when your baby is older. This saves both time and money.

After choosing what kind of crib you want, it is good to think about baby bedding. Designer baby bedding can be lovely, but it may not fit in your budget. Instead you can look for pastel or bright colors to make your child comfortable. When choosing bedding and a crib, you should be sure to keep safety guidelines in mind.

Baby furniture such as changing tables, high chairs, strollers, and rockers are important for new babies. Matching furniture for Baby's room can always be the traditional white, blue, and pink, or you may want to look at bolder colors. Black baby furniture, or furniture that is some other bold color, may be a fun choice for your child's room. To lighten up the rest of the room you can choose a light color for the walls, bedding, and pictures. This will make the room feel more like a baby room.

Once the big things are out of the way, smaller baby items may be considered. Diapers are an important element to think about. Cloth and disposable diapers are both options. If you choose cloth diapers, you may want to think about finding a cleaning service. If you choose disposable diapers, diaper disposal containers are good for keeping the room neat and smell-free. Diaper baskets are a good idea for storing clean diapers.

It can also be a good idea to have a safe sleep gown for Baby. This is because soft blankets and toys in cribs are dangerous for infants. Burping pads, socks, onesies, bibs, and swaddling blankets are also important.

A baby monitor can be a good choice for your baby's safety. These monitors allow you to monitor Baby's sleep, and can be a good precaution.

Not all preparations for baby have to be serious, though. Baby toys are important for your child's development. These toys include jumpers, rattles, mobiles, and soft picture books.
