SNL’s NuvaBling Commercial: Because Who Doesn’t Want Diamond-Encrusted Birth Control?

March 29, 2013 by  
Filed under Belly Laughs





Commercials for birth control always make me cringe. With the gal-pals touting the benefits of the method being advertised and the awkward spouting of side effects…it always seems so forced and silly. My conversations with girlfriends certainly don’t sound like that! Which is why I love this SNL commercial “advertising” NuvaBling, a diamond-encrusted form of [...]

It’s Funny Because It’s True: The Evolution of Mom Dance With Obama and Fallon

Filed under Belly Laughs





My lack of dance finesse has been noted multiple times over the years (mostly by myself, although I’m sure innocent bystanders have noticed too), so it’s not like when I became a mom I suddenly lost my dancing mojo. But as a mom, I know I am infinitely dorkier than I once was. Mostly it’s [...]

Belly Laughs: Pregnant In Heels Spoof

Filed under Belly Laughs





I’m way behind on this clip, but maybe other moms haven’t had the ability to stay up “super late” to watch SNL and therefore haven’t seen it either? Regardless, it’s a hilarious SNL spoof of the show Pregnant in Heels. That show is one of those fluffy Bravo shows that is purely a guilty pleasure. If [...]

Breastfeeding in Public: A Funny Tale of Two Types

Filed under Belly Laughs, Breastfeeding





With the second child, it’s definitely true that you’re a whole lot more laid back about everything. You don’t seem to fret quite as much, and you don’t sweat the small stuff. I recently saw this very funny video, comparing the shy first-time breastfeeding mom to a seasoned mom of two who will feed her [...]

If you’re on your second, third or more pregnancy (you go, girl!), you’ve probably started to notice that things are a bit different than the first time. In my first pregnancy, What to Expect When You’re Expecting was a daily read. I had the app on my phone, and I could always tell you how [...]

Why You Should Always Wait for Pregnancy Confirmation Before You Open Your Mouth

March 16, 2012 by  
Filed under Belly Laughs





Having just had a baby (more on that soon!), I’m remembering why I will never assume a woman is pregnant. My stomach is deflating by the day (more on that soon, too!), but I still look fairly seriously pregnant. The times I’ve been out in public I’ve been bracing myself for the “When are you [...]

Parenting Is Full of ‘Bleachable Moments’

February 3, 2012 by  
Filed under Belly Laughs





As a parent, there is no shortage of teachable moments. There is also an overabundance of “bleachable moments.” You know the ones—poop flying everywhere, spit-up all over the place, food in all the wrong places. Because I’m all too familiar with these bleachable moments (BMs, har har!), I thought this Clorox commercial was especially funny. [...]

Grandma on Grandma Violence on One Born Every Minute

Now that I’m pregnant, I’ve been regularly tuning into TLC’s A Baby Story while I drink my morning coffee. I also get hooked on I Didn’t Know I Was Pregnant, but I want to discuss that in a post on another day. I haven’t yet seen Lifetime’s One Born Every Minute, but from what I [...]
