When Saturday Night Live announced that six-months pregnant Tina Fey would host the Mother's Day episode, the comedic actress's fans hoped the show would filled with pregnancy jokes and fun takes on motherhood. Neither Tina, nor the show, disappointed. From the opening monologue, featuring Tina and an expectant Maya Rudolph serenading their bumps, to a mock home-birthing class that may have laboring mamas running to the hospital delivery room, the show was packed with pregnancy fun. My favorite skit though, was a spoof of Bravo's Pregnant in Heels, where Tina played one of maternity concierge Rosie Pope's high-maintenance clients. Whether you're a fan of the show, or not, the following clip will have both expecting moms and those who've been there and done that cracking up. Enjoy!
Pregnant in Heels Offers a Look into Extreme Baby Planning
Oh the trials and tribulations of wealthy moms-to-be! Last night's series premiere of Pregnant in Heels introduced us to the world of Rosie Pope – a baby concierge who helps rich New York women design their nurseries, hire nannies, improve relationships with husbands, and, apparently, select baby names. Mitch and Samantha are about to welcome their third child and are seeking help naming their baby-to-be. Rather than pore through books and websites, they have Rosie put together a focus group of academics (a poet, a magazine writer, a linguist, and a branding expert) to aid them in choosing a name that will "scream success." I won't spoil it with the name that is ultimately agreed upon, but let's just say it is – unexpected. The show definitely shines a light on extreme baby planning, but as a "been there, done that" mom, I found it to be a fun indulgence. Did you tune in? Dish with me in the comments below!
