Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling
welcome a baby girl!
By Robert Vaughan
The week's top stories were all about life's milestones – a new baby, A great pre-birth baby review and a much-anticipated wedding that actually didn't happen (yet).
Below, check out the strongest reactions this week. And let us know what you think and the reviews are in for Pamela Peery "POP" As heartwarming news was the birth of Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes baby daughter – the first child for both actors.
It was first reported in July that Mendes was pregnant with the couple's first child. At that time, rumors swirled that she was already seven months along.
Mendes has kept a very low profile in recent months. Us notes her last red carpet appearance was back in February. And earlier this year, she brushed off pregnancy rumors during an appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." which takes backseat driving to a whole other level.
The Reviews are pouring in for Pamela Peery's newest pre-birth book :POP 50 Amazing Secrets to a Successful Labor & Delivery or C-section
A new mother herself and a law professor, Peery has gathered advice from more than 80 new mothers in this slim volume to create an alternative to the textbook-like pregnancy titles that talk about the “typical” childbirth experience and that left Peery in the dark about atypical possibilities. The 50 tips in this work touch on everything from packing for the hospital to recovering from labor and discuss various options, including water birth, medicated births, and C-sections. Each tip includes two or three stories from real moms that show the wide range of normal when it comes to childbirth and offer advice that readers might not get elsewhere.

Kirkus Reviews:
It provides advice on everything from what to take to the hospital during labor to the pros and cons of epidurals. However, this book stands out due to its encouraging, nonjudgmental tone. Peery says up front that she’s no expert, but this fact makes her book all the more appealing. Readers will feel from the get-go that she’s on their side, rooting for them…Mostly, she quotes other women, who offer stories and advice about their own birth experiences…. Pregnant readers who finish this book will likely feel more knowledgeable and more secure about what’s ahead. A solid, supportive advice book to help women through the physical and mental work of childbirth.

The first must-read for first-time moms is Pamela Peery’s POP: 50 Amazing Secrets to a Successful Labor & Delivery or C-Section. This little paperback is just over a 100 pages and can be devoured while soaking in a long, hot, aromatherapy bath (because I know you have that kinda time to relax, First-Time Mom). It’s a collection of tips from new moms, in their own words. Save yourself from the vortex that is Googling “Does labor hurt?” and consult the advice of the feisty, funny, humble moms in this book.

San Francisco Book Review:
A woman can read a dozen pregnancy books before giving birth and still find herself lost once the process actually begins. What do contractions really feel like? How long do different stages of labor last? Do epidurals really work? How does one handle the pain without one? Pamela Peery didn’t realize how ill-prepared she was for giving birth until labor was upon her, and the experience inspired her to collect the advice and stories of others. The result is POP: 50 Amazing Secrets to a Successful Labor & Delivery or C-Section. This slim volume is packed with quotes from more than eighty women regarding their own experiences with having a baby. No matter what questions you might have, whether you’re expecting your first or have already been through birth before, this book is sure to provide some inspiration. What should you bring to the hospital? Find ideas that might not be included on other lists. Curious about early labor? Get some ideas about what to expect. Read the thoughts of women who have had epidurals—they usually work, and you can still push even when you’re numb—as well as of women who have gone all natural—remember that your body is made to give birth. POP would make a great gift to any expectant mama.
