New Mom Naomi Watts Admits She Isn't Sleeping

LilSugar — Wed, 18 Feb 2009 13:15:05 -0800

Naomi Watts may look like a million bucks less than two months after baby Samuel's December birth, but this morning she admitted to Ellen that she isn't getting any shut-eye. The mama to two lil ones (she and partner Liev Schreiber also have one-year-old Alexander) said on The Ellen DeGeneres Show:

I'm getting no sleep - literally, because I'm feeding all through the night. He's still eating every three to four hours... I'm really never grounded these days.

Naomi, who is promoting the film The International, also admitted Alexander has "regressed a little bit" and wants attention whenever his bro has middle-of-the-night feedings. Getting enough zzzs is an enormous challenge with a new baby, especially when juggling two youngsters, but most lilsugar readers have Naomi beat by six to eight hours per night. Did you suffer complete sleep deprivation when your child was born?

How Long Did You Wait to Party Postpartum?

It's one thing to make a coffee run so soon after having baby and quite another to doll up for a night on the town. A newborn rarely allows mommy to step away from the bassinet for longer than two hours at a time, and many mums are simply sleep deprived, which makes dressing up for a swanky soiree a low priority on the to-do list. But there's always someone out there that there that deviates from the norm.

Ellen Pompeo and hubby Chris Ivery just welcomed their wee daughter Stella on Sept. 15 and already the svelte mama was paparazzi ready at David Beckham's Originals by Originals Adidas. She rocked the blue carpet and made postpartum life look all too easy. It appears the glow of her pregnancy has carried over into motherhood for the blessed new mommy.

How long did you wait to hit the social scene after having baby?

Great Anatomy: Pregnant Ellen Pompeo Is Fit and Fabulous

babysugar — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 08:00:15 -0700

On-screen and off, actress Ellen Pompeo has always been understated in her fashion and beauty choices that made her more attractive in my eyes. Before pregnancy, her thin frame and natural look created the perfect canvas for fashion forward looks, but her new curves have added an extra glow and style to her existence. Looking better than ever, the mama-to-be is even making my girl Fab look forward to pregnancy... now that's sayin' something!

In lieu of frumpy frocks, the Grey's Anatomy star often chooses both frame fitting and flowy black dresses and tunics and accents them with Grecian sandals and gold laden hobo bags. When she's not working out in her spandex, she rocks tie-dye dresses and moccasin boots for a casual look. A maternity role model to expectant ladies, I'm sure her mini me will be sportin' some pretty stinkin' cute threads, too!

10 Ways TV Shows Bared or Covered Pregnant Bellies

LilSugar — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 14:30:06 -0800

Try as they might, it is not easy for a celeb to hide pregnancy after the 20 week mark. Actresses may show off their bumps to much fanfare offscreen, but on-screen it depends on the storyline. While some television writers are willing to make a character pregnant, others use creative means to hide their stars' growing midsections or joke about weight gain. Ellen Pompeo will be disguising her belly as Meredith on the upcoming season of Grey's Anatomy and that inspired us to take a look at how other shows handled pregnancy.

Is Early Maternity Leave Right For You?

LilSugar — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 07:00:45 -0700

The last few weeks of pregnancy are wrought with anticipation. For some expectant women still on the job, the pressure of getting their work done while preparing for their upcoming arrival brings on too much stress. Add a commute and physical discomfort and some mamas-to-be beg their doctors to order them home. Other ladies stay in the office until they go into labor and save their leave for after their lil one enters the world. Nesters prefer to spend their final weeks preparing the nursery and resting. Ellen Pompeo, who is expecting her first child this Fall, is going to take an early maternity leave from Grey's Anatomy. What did you do while waiting for your baby?
