Actress Paula Patton recently went on Chelsea Lately and dished about her fair-haired baby boy who takes after husband Robin Thicke. That's her cutie above and on the show, Patton joked, "They think we've adopted a Russian child." It's either that or people assume that she's his nanny!

Every mom-to-be wants to wear the latest maternity fashions from the hottest designer maternity brands like Maternal America, Olian and Ripe Maternity, but let's face it. We don't all have an unlimited budget, and it can be hard to justify dropping big bucks on maternity clothes you're probably only going to wear once or twice.

That's what makes Mine for Nine a fantastic find. Following the lead of rental sites like BagBorrowSteal.com, where you can rent the latest designer handbags instead of buying, Mine for Nine allows expectant moms to rent special occasion maternity dresses and professional maternity attire for a fraction of the cost. Genius, right?
For example, the Seraphine cocktail dress above retails for $143, but at Mine for Nine you can have it for two weeks and pay just $39. Decide you love it and want to keep it?

Did you see this segment Good Morning America today? I didn't, but I came across this clip on Styelist and I am totally floored. Not only does this mother admit to waxing her 8-year-old daughter's legs, but she injects her daughter's face with Botox, too.

Ordinarily, I'm pretty "to each her own" when it comes to parenting decisions, but my initial reaction after I watched this piece was that her daughter should be taken away from her. I know it's harsh, but I am just so horrified that a mother would inject her own child with Botox. Here I am worrying about my daughter's bottle containing BPA and her baby wash being filled with phthalates, but this mom is literally injecting botulinum (yes, the same stuff that gives you food poisoning) into her daughter's face. How could you not be appalled?

In the interview, Lara Spencer asks 8-year-old Britney Campbell why she was getting the Botox injections. Her response? "Umm, I don't know." I would like to say I'm sure this mother

During yesterday's Today Show, Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb talked about a new doll that is causing quite the controversy. Check out the video above and you'll see Gifford having fun with it (maybe enjoying it a bit too much, actually) while Kotb is not amused, even calling the doll weird.

I'm with Gifford and don't see anything wrong with a doll that mimics breastfeeding. What's the big deal? My daughter has a doll that mimics bottle feeding, complete with the suckling noises, and I don't think anyone has a problem with that.

It's not to say that I don't have issues with the doll. First, in order for the doll to start sucking your little girl has to wear a "magic top" that looks something like a training nursing bra...with flowers where the nipples should be. Awful. And the price? It costs a whopping $89.
