Natalia Vodianova Attends The End Fistula Event
Model Natalia Vodianova was seen at the Virgin Unite Campaign to End Fistula Celebrity Bowl Off on September 5 at All Star Lanes in London, England. The event was to raise money to help end fistulas. An Obstetric fistula is a medical condition sometimes caused by prolonged laour without prompt medical intervention. A hole develops between the rectum or bladder and the vagina. The affected woman can have chronic incontinence, severe infections, ulcerations of the vaginal tract, and kidney disease. This is harmful for the baby too, and it can cause stillbirth. Nadia herself is expecting her third child this month. He is to be named Viktor in honour of her grandfather.

Naomi Watts Talks About Motherhood and Pregnancy
When Naomi Watts was on Good Morning America promoting her new film "Eastern Promises," she also got to speak about the birth of her new baby, six-week-old Alexander Pete Schreiber. After researching pregnancy and childbirth, she says she was just as scared as any expectant first-time mother: "I was thinking, 'Oh my God. This is going to be a hard thing for me if I ever get there,'" but in the end it turned out well and both mom and baby has a healthy pregnancy and labor. Naomi is still in shock about the accomplishment of giving birth, though. She states, "I just can't get over that six weeks ago this little person was in my body. It's such a powerful experience, and each day it gets more and more powerful."

Halle Berry has confirmed to Access Hollywood's Nancy O'Dell that she is three months pregnant via email: “Yes, I am three months pregnant! Gabriel and I are beyond excited, and I’ve waited a long time for this moment in life. Now the next seven months will be the longest of my life!” Interesting; does Halle plan on giving birth a month late? We predict that Halle will only be pregnant for another six months, bringing her to a nine month term. But that's just our guess. The father is Halle Berry's boyfriend and model Gabriel Aubry.
