Very Pregnant, Very Hot: Heavily pregnant actress and TV producer (Ugly Betty) Salma Hayek was voted sexiest celebrity in the world in a recent online poll. Ms. Hayek beat out the likes of Beyonce Knowles, Angelina Jolie, and Jennifer Lopez, and narrowly edged out the much younger Jessica Alba. The lovely, beautifully aging Raquel Welch came in ninth. Somehow Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, and the Olsen Twins did not make the list.

Breastfeeding and PPD: A new study out of the UK challenges the notion that women with postpartum depression will not be able to breastfeed. The researchers noted that how breastfeeding promotion is presented to these women may have an impact on their well-being, as campaigns that are perceived as pressure to breastfeed may increase a depressed woman’s sense of inadequacy and feelings of entrapment. Individual, psychologically-based breastfeeding support could help these mothers succeed with nursing while helping them navigate their ambivalent feelings about motherhood. The researchers also note that many women with PPD have positive experiences with breastfeeding and find their ability to nurse reassuring.

Gussied Up Pacifiers Recalled: The CPSC and various firms announced a recall of pacifiers decorated with crystals (often with “bling” in the name) because they pose an aspiration hazard. Caretakers should take these pacifiers away from babies and children and contact the participating firms for a refund.
