Tori Spelling Pregnant Again?!

Tori
Tori is pregnant again. Yes, that Tori. Seems like just a few months ago we were discussing whether or not she had lost the baby weight and now she has announced she's got another bun in the oven.

Hattie is only five months old and it seems from her announcement photo on her website that she is more than a couple months along. Which means Hattie and the new baby could be less than a year apart.

Birth control slip-up? Attention grab? Who knows? And while I don't really have the right to know, I expect Tori and Dean will tell us soon enough. Because that is celebrity motherhood and Tori has re-built her career on being a mother. I don't really understand the current fascination with celebrity motherhood. Celebrities are not any better at this parenting thing than the rest of us. They just have the airbrushing tools to make it look better.


But Tori's announcement does bring up the question of having children so close together. Siblings less than a year apart seems like madness to me. But I chose to have my three paced three years apart. And I see that it can work well either way.

But the first thing that popped into my head on reading the news was: she and Dean are doing it already? Because that means she got pregnant two months post-partum and wow, most women aren't back in the saddle at that point.

Not to mention, the idea of being pregnant again when there is still a newborn in a crib at home is abhorrent to many new moms. 

But if Tori has any qualms about the close spacing of her kids or what a fourth pregnancy will do to her physically and mentally so quickly after number three, we may never know. That would conflict with her new mommy image -- and all the products she is trying to sell.

Congrats to Tori and Dean and their growing empire, I mean, family. You seem happy and in love and your fans love you. What more could Tori ask for?

Did you have kids super close together? Or did you space them out?

Want more chaos? Last year, our kids laughed at us for our past.
