She has three daughters and had undergone fertility treatments because she wanted a boy. Well, now she has four of them. The septuplets – my heart skips a beat whenever I look at that word...

  • Birth inspires lottery ticket purchase

    I'm a little superstitious. I prefer the number 7 to the number 13, for example. So if I had a child that was born on August 8, 2008 at 8:08am and weighed 8 pounds, 8 ounces, I would probably do what the staff at Lake Region Hospital in Minnesota did. Buy lottery tickets. Lots and lots of lottery...

  • 20 Disturbing Baby Products

    I freely admit to a bit of jealously with this link , since it would have been nice to come up with it myself. That said, we have hit on a few of these in the past, such as the infant high heels, and the Thudgard helmet. And I had a note to write about the Pee-Pee Teepee at some point because, like,...

  • No twin visits for Jon Voight

    Usually the birth of a child can bring a family together. But whatever is going on between Jon Voight and Angelina Jolie must be pretty bad. According to E! (that's hard to type – the !) Voight says, "I was just as excited as everybody else" about the birth of the twins . (Maybe, "I'm...

  • Ohh, Baby - Orgasmic Birth Video

    Some things go great together. Chocolate and peanut butter. Milk and cookies. Childbirth and orgasms. What, you disagree? You think that it's unbelievably weird to be thinking about sex while your child is being born? What are you, a stiff? There's a scene in Edward Albee's play " The...

  • Your baby is ugly

    CBS News sent correspondent Steve Hartman into the field to ask people if they thought his baby was cute. But Steve did something tricky: he used a distorted image of his offspring (not the image at the right; that's Baby-faced Finster from Bugs Bunny). The idea was to see if anyone would say, "Dude...
