The Latest on Birth Control

31eEkcXvNkL._SL500_AA280_ From why the IUD is back and more popular than ever to questions on whether it’s really safe for a woman to miss her period (oh, and WHEN IS THE MAN PILL coming out) and so much more, Breezy Mama’s favorite go-to OB Dr. Rothbart answered our questions.

It’s a double for Mike Piazza. The former New York Mets catcher and his wife are expecting their second child.

Add triple the fun for Boston Legal’s Julie Bowen. The actress announced twin boys will join big brother Oliver in April.

Mythbusters Kari Byron’s tummy will soon be busting out. Announcing the pregnancy on the show with her two male costars, she jokingly asked, “Guess which one of us is actually pregnant?”

Tommy Hilfiger and his wife, Dee Ocleppo, expect to fashion in a child at the end of summer.

Father of two Kevin Federline will be debuting new seams in the children’s clothing business.

It was great site sea-ing for the audience of The Little Mermaid on Broadway when they were joined by fellow spectators Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie and their kids, Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh.

Best Actress Oscar winner and mom Kate Winslet shared with Oprah, “I have done quite a lot of nudity, and I feel like my kids — they’re 8 and 5 now — maybe they’re going to start to become aware of the amount of nudity I’ve done. I just sort of feel like I can’t get away with it that much longer.”
