ABC’s Bachelorette Trista Sutter to Launch New Diaper Bag Line
Expectant mom Trista Sutter, well known for her participation on ABC’s The Bachelorette, needed a diaper bag so she decided to design her own! The line, called Trista Baby, will be made out of environmentally friendly materials and is set to launch in a few weeks. Despite having bad morning, noon, and night sickness for the first trimester, lack of sleep, and being diagnosed with gestational diabetes in her 7th month, Trista says that she has really enjoyed the experience overall: “The most beautiful unexpected thing about pregnancy is feeling the baby move. Just feeling the fluttering and the kicks is an amazing thing.” Trista and her husband Ryan Shutter expect the new addition to their family to arrive August 23rd and they are keeping the baby’s sex a surprise.

Penny Lancaster Takes Rapid Weight-Loss Pressure Off New Moms
Chief executive of the National Childbirth Trust, Belinda Phipps, said many women felt under pressure to lose weight quickly after their own pregnancies after seeing celebrities shrink back into their pre-pregnancy clothes shortly after delivering. However, some celebrity moms including Catherine Zeta Jones and Rod Stewart’s wife, Penny Lancaster, have spoken out against this trend. Lancaster, who was photographed looking slim just days after the birth of her son Alastair, insists that the idea that celebrities slim back into shape super-quickly after having a baby is just not true. She credits her slim appearance to clever dressing, slimming tights, and flattering camera angles. She says she is “upset when [her] name is associated with celebrities' who manage to get their figures back within just a few weeks” and that she “would hate for new moms to feel under that pressure because of [her], because it's not true." In addition, celebrity moms have someone to look after their baby and personal trainers, and their careers depend on weight loss. Their results are not a reflection of realistic expectations for most. Source: The Herald
