Amy Schumer has been #momgoals with us since well before her son, Gene, was actually born. Her pregnancy photos were so damn relatable, and included so much puke, we couldn’t help but laugh and cry right along with her. And as a fellow hyperemesis gravidarum mama, I have to admit I related so much more to Schumer’s honest photos hooked up to the IV and looking miserable than I did, say, Kate Middleton making it through nine months of hyperemesis with seemingly no hair out of place....

Are you reluctant to ransack a really rambling Rolodex of baby names beginning with “R,” just striving to find the most relevant monikers among all the runners-up? Don’t let name-rummaging rattle you and send you on a rampage (or stuck in a naming rut). We’ve rounded up “R” baby names from the regular (Ron, Rick) to the rare (Rilo, Redd) to the retro (Rita, Reggie) to the downright robust (Ragnarok?!)....

When I was 26, at a routine dermatology appointment for a skin check, my long-time dermatologist suggested I get “a bit of Botox” to my forehead. Until that point, I’d assumed Botox was only for 60-something Hollywood actresses. “Julie will take care of you,” she assured me, wheeling me out the door and placing me firmly in the grips of a frozen-faced, bespectacled and white-coated woman of indeterminate age. Days after those few jabs of Botox to my forehead — after which I’d wondered if I’d see any difference — I noticed that I didn’t see the usual lines when I frowned at myself in the mirror....

It feels like ages ago that my husband and I canceled our travel plans because of the COVID-19 pandemic. My 6-year-old’s school hadn’t yet closed, and it was before the airlines dropped their hefty flight change fees. It felt early in the game to take this step, but I’d been watching the news. Information about the novel coronavirus disease was spreading seemingly even faster than the virus itself was spreading throughout the country....

Prince Andrew is probably sweating profusely after Ghislaine Maxwell was found guilty on five charges in federal court on Thursday: two counts of perjury, conspiracy to entice minors to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, conspiracy to transport minors with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity, transportation of a minor with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity. This means that Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s civil case against the royal, which alleges she was sex trafficked to him by Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein, is going to have a much bigger spotlight in the media....

On Monday night, Kylie Jenner conducted a little psychological experiment on 2-year-old daughter Stormi Webster. It was a #chocolatechallenge that’s making the rounds on Instagram and TikTok this week: Place a piece of candy in front of a toddler and tell them they can have some, but first they have to wait until their mom comes back. Meanwhile, the camera captures their agonizing, interminable, max 30-second wait, and maybe tells us something about their personality....

When someone spells your name wrong, it can be annoying (my name is spelled Sydni — trust me, I get it). Usually, incorrect spellings on your Starbucks cup or from random emails is NBD, but when someone consistently spells your name wrong — especially someone you know — it can be downright rude. One mom on Reddit is going “insane” by the way her mother-in-law has been spelling her one-year-old son’s name....

Ah, America. Land of the free, home of the body-shamers — er, brave. At BlogHer’s International Women’s Day virtual event, Priyanka Chopra Jonas chatted with SHE Media’s Video VP Reshma Gopaldas about the everyday sexism she’s faced as an acclaimed actress (and just as a woman in this world), and noted that her childhood growing up in India with her parents was actually relatively free of some of the body-shaming she later began to recognize as commonplace throughout Hollywood....

Sexual monotony happens — to all of us. You’re not the first to contemplate how to spice up your sex life, and you certainly won’t be the last. Couples can find themselves in sexual ruts for all kinds of reasons, Dr. Laura Dabney, M.D., relationship psychiatrist, tells SheKnows. Over time, our sexual preferences change, and our bodies do too. The thing that charmed us at the start of our relationship may no longer resonate in the same way....

With a new year, comes a bevy of exciting new beverages — if you’re Starbucks anyway. This year, Starbucks is rolling out an entire menu full of drinks sans dairy. The world-famous coffee chain started serving soy lattes way back in 1997, added coconut milk to its lineup of milk alternatives in 2015 and almond milk joined the family in 2016. The addition of these dairy-free milk alternatives saw the rise of fan-favorite drinks like the Coconutmilk Mocha Macchiato and the Horchata Almondmilk Frappuccino blended beverage....
