'Heather Dubrow is so chic while being a mom. Just love the way that she just allows her kids to be who they are. And that's really inspiring to me. But Teresa from Jersey does not play about her kids,' said the Barbadian bombshell.
For Dr. Gloria Bachmann, an OB-GYN and the director of the Women's Health Institute at Rutgers University, the rule to follow is the same one she advises all pregnant people stick to, no matter the health concern or question: check with your doctor (or midwife, practitioner or other care provider). This is important not only before you consume a new medication, according to Bachmann, but also to make sure you don't write off a more serious illness as a common cold, allergies or even a mild case of COVID-19.
Based on the children's book of the same name, Where the Wild Things Are will appeal to adults as much as younger viewers. A lonely boy escapes problems at home, including his parents divorce, by sailing off across a small pond that leads to an ocean. At the end, an island where he eventually rules over the fluffy and monstrous inhabitants. Exploring the facets of growing up, this fantasy adventure is a unique, occasionally melancholic picture book come to life.
The 60-year-old author - born in St Petersburg to Russian parents and assigned mandatory military service assisting the KGB - has been forced to flee his home in Kyiv with his English wife, Elizabeth, and their three children.
Steven Spielberg and the late Robin Williams bring us the most swashbuckling of adventures. Hook imagines an adult Peter Pan who becomes a workaholic lawyer, until his old nemesis captures his children and he must return to Neverland to save them. Although Hook tore audiences apart at the time of its release, drawing criticism for sentimentality and lack of freshness, its central performances from Williams as Peter and Dustin Hoffman as Captain Hook had people... well, you can finish that sentence.
Netflix put its adaptation of Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina on indefinite hold, and an Italian university course on Fyodor Dostoevsky - the 19th century novelist exiled for defying the Russian state - was withdrawn before it was reinstated after a backlash.
Determining the risk of the other active ingredients found in Mucinex is a little trickier. Dextromethorphan is a cough suppressant that works by interfering with the "cough" signal in your brain. Guaifenesin works by loosening the mucus in your chest. There are some reports of a small risk of neural tube defects linked to guaifenesin, but the evidence is inconclusive. It's listed in a report by the American Academy of Family Physicians as "might be unsafe during first trimester." In the same report, dextromethorphan is listed as "appears to be safe in pregnancy," but as is true for many drugs and ingredients, there isn't enough evidence to say conclusively either way.

Kindred Bravely maternity products aren't cheap, but in my experience they're worth the investment. This combo nursing and pumping bra was my go-to during an intense time of triple-feeding in order to increase my supply (for the uninitiated, that's a grueling process of nursing/pumping/hand-expressing all day and night). It's easy to throw on over your head without any clasps, and the hooks to access the layer for pumping and then nursing were easy to use -- a major benefit for nighttime feeding and nursing sessions. The pumping portion holds the flanges in place so you can pump hands-free. Despite the extra layer of fabric for pumping, this bra was more comfortable and less lumpy under my clothes than other pumping bras I tried. Kindred Bravely also offers a similar, non-sports bra option, the Sublime Hands-free Pumping & Nursing Bra.
