JLaw was wearing an extremely low-cut Mugler halter dress in a cramped car when some leering photographers spotted her and snapped away. Check out Lorde sitting next to Lawrence. It’s like you can hear her saying, “Hon, your boobs are completely falling out of your dress.” Or maybe she’s just admiring them and thinking, Eeeexcellent … In later photos, Lawrence is laughing. Was it an “oops” laugh or was she giggling over something Lorde said?...

Odds are that if you’re a beauty lover, you probably think you know all there is to know about Kat Von D. What you might not know is that underneath Kat’s goth exterior beats a surprisingly gooey, romantic heart. Case in point: She and her new boyfriend are ALL about the PDA on Instagram right now, and it’s giving us a terminal case of Special Feelings. Talk about online PDA…...

There are actually two different recalls. The first is for 34,000 Idea Baby Bath Seats (pictured at left), which were sold at Buy Buy Baby, both in stores and online, and at Bed Bath & Beyond between September 2012 and April 2013. While no babies have actually been harmed while using the seats, the Consumer Product Safety Commission has determined that they can tip over in the tub, which can pose a drowning risk to babies....

While many moms- and dads-to-be say their main concern is that the pregnancy is complication-free and that the baby is well, the truth is some parents do secretly harbor a preference for a baby boy or baby girl. And when cameras are rolling and emotions are running high, sometimes a parent’s true thoughts about the sex of a future baby are captured forever, for better or for worse. Sure, parents hope that their baby is healthy and that the pregnancy goes well....

The doctor eventually offered to give her medicine for the dizziness, but that wasn’t good enough for Gleadell — she wanted to know what was causing it. “He said, ‘Oh well I don’t think we’ll ever get to the bottom of what’s causing it.’ He did say to me that maybe if I stopped thinking about the dizziness I’d stop feeling so dizzy,” she added. “He’s also looked at my cervix several times and told me that looked normal when there was a great big tumour on it....

Melissa Carleton has been in a coma for over two months. When she was in her second trimester with baby West Nathaniel Lande, doctors discovered a benign brain tumor. She wanted to wait until after giving birth to operate, but she suffered from a seizure that left her almost fully unconscious. And she hasn’t regained her consciousness since March 11. But Brian Lande, her husband, and the rest of the family did get some pretty amazing news: baby West is perfectly healthy, while Carleton can open her eyes but has yet to fully recover....

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), slapped cheek syndrome can be passed down from a pregnant mother to her baby — causing severe anemia and even miscarriage. Although about half of pregnant women are immune to Fifth Disease, which ultimately protects their babies from contacting it, others aren’t so lucky. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what happened to Carlile, who told Chronicle Live that she contracted “slapped cheek syndrome” at the nursery she works in Newcastle, United Kingdom....

BBC spoke to three anonymous moms for the report, each of whom said that even though they love their kids, they wouldn’t have chosen to have children if they truly knew what it’d be like. Allison, a mom of two college-aged boys, told BBC she dreamed of having the stereotypical happy family, but the stress of raising her sons was unlike anything she expected. “Everybody else’s needs and wants came first....

“I imagine it would be similar to having a limb amputated without anesthetic,” another wrote. “Like someone sticking an industrial powered hoover up your arse, and switching it on and off at increasing close intervals,” another woman wrote. “Like being crushed in a vice but from the inside out,” one user described. “Like shitting a portable telly,” another added. “Nothing else really describes it so well as this perfect quote from my (midwife) mate!...

“At only 28 years old, I was now a pregnant widow with an almost 2-year-old son, and an almost 6-year-old stepson I feared I might not get to see again,” she explained. As often happens with blended families, there was tension between Stephanie and Stuart’s family. We were treated like outsiders," she explained. “It was torture, but I was there to tell our story and ensure that he was honored for not only the soldier he was, but the husband, father, and man he was....

Sonya Lunder, EWG senior analyst, tells CafeMom that one red flag to watch out for is super high Sun Protection Factor (SPF) levels. Why? Those big numbers offer a false sense of security, and parents don’t apply as liberally or as often as they should. “SPF values between 15 and 50 are good, but the best are between 30 to 50,” she says, adding that it’s important to reapply every two hours....

Jonathan Ross, M.D., the Division Chief of Pediatric Urology at University Hospitals Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio, offers this advice on how you can prevent that from happening. Why are UTIs most prevalent in children around the time of toilet training? The normal healthy cycle of bladder filling and emptying is no longer purely in play. For example, once toilet-trained, children may “hold it in” or rush the process so that they don’t fully empty their bladder, which interferes with the body’s normal flushing mechanism....

Of course, we’re only really hearing Rachel’s side of the story, not Taylor’s. But hey, more celebrity fashion TV, yippee! About the season premiere, Rachel tells InStyle, “You will see what actually happened. It was just another situation in my career and my life where I got stabbed in the back. I got betrayed. It was time to get the negative energy out. You get to a point where you say that it shouldn’t be this difficult....

There’s very little information on in-water resuscitation (IWR). In fact, most people aren’t even aware it’s possible. According to a conference paper published by the International Life Saving Federation, there’s very little science backing up the accuracy of the procedure: “Even trained lifeguards cannot always accomplish IWR technique effectively, especially in deep water.” The Sun News spoke with Horry County Fire Rescue Chief Joseph Tanner, who said that the boy’s life was saved only due to the amazing actions of Shaun Skursky, the responding police, and everyone else who stepped in to help....

For someone like me who was eight years apart from my only sibling, seeing this sibling love and closeness is really amazing. This is why the story by writer Simon Stephenson in The Guardian hit me so hard. The writer was 16 months apart from his brother and the two were raised like twins. But he lost his brother in the Thailand tsunami in 2004 and everything changed. Sometimes I worry that my two are too dependent on one another, but this story changes that....

Then, Julie explained that it’s because these things tend to happen when no one is looking. “I’m not posting this for attention, I have LIVED this,” she wrote. She explained that when she left her abusive husband, everyone was surprised and thought she was giving up on her marriage. But, she realized that the safety of herself and her daughter were more important. She also said he shoved her, took all of the phones so she couldn’t call the cops, punched holes in their walls and door, purposely slammed her hand in the door, and locked her outside in the middle of winter....

Thinking of giving sleep training a try? Here, 7 things to keep in mind. Don’t attempt to ferberize a young baby. Newborns aren’t waking up in the middle of the night to prevent you from getting your beloved rest, they’re getting up because they’re hungry and need food in order to grow. Most experts, including Dr. Ferber, agree that crying it out shouldn’t be attempted on a child younger than at least 3 months....

From this, one might assume that Bren, the 78-year-old Irvine Co. chairman, was some kind of deadbeat, right? No. In fact, according to USA Today, Bren provided the children with enough to live an upper-middle class lifestyle (plus he paid for their entire education). But that was not enough. $3 million. And she has the nerve to complain. According to Bren, he never loved her and never wanted the children....
