The best part of the holiday season is the excited feeling of suspense leading up to the big day. From decorations to special songs to our favorite meals, we start celebrating long before the actual day of Christmas arrives. Our new favorite way to build up the anticipation is also our old favorite, from childhood: advent calendars!...

It’s hard to imagine a 17-year-old who has worked with the likes of Tracee Ellis Ross, Regina Hall, and Issa Rae, knowing that this is just the first phase of their career. And yet, Marsai Martin is that young woman, whose burgeoning acting career is taking her to new heights. The young star, known best for her role as Diane Johnson on the critically acclaimed and beloved ABC sitcom Black-ish, now lends her voice to the film adaptation of Paw Patrol, out August 20....

The role of a parent is manifold. You’re a professional chef, storyteller, first-aid administrator, walking encyclopedia, butt wiper, launderer, chauffeur, itinerary planner, housekeeper, and entertainer. What you’re not is a mind reader. It’s not always possible to know how your child is feeling or what they need — and, let’s face it, kids aren’t always the greatest communicators. Sometimes, it might feel like you’re misinterpreting all of their cues, and nothing you do seems to go the right way....

OK, yes, there is more to receiving oral sex than having an orgasm — the closeness and sensation alone can be satisfying — but we can probably all agree that an O is often the cherry on top of an all-consuming, sweaty, oh-my-god-don’t-stop sex session. Getting there, though, can be the difficult part, even if your partner is eager, willing and doing his or her best to send you into the stratosphere....

Under any circumstances, the loss of a child is so much for a parent to bear. When we heard that Australian influencer Emilee Hembrow had a stillbirth at 30 weeks pregnant last month, we wondered whether this loss was made even harder by the fact that she shared so much of her pregnancy online with her 1.1 million followers. But to hear her tell it, via her Instagram Stories, it’s been quite the opposite....

Beauty maven James Charles is under fire after he posted nude photos of himself from a “maternity” photoshoot on his Instagram with a prosthetic baby bump. The snap shared on Instagram promoted his latest video aptly named, “24 Hours Being PREGNANT!!” where he pretends, well, to do just that after his friend, Laura Mellado, who is expecting her second child said he wouldn’t be able to last 24 hours being pregnant....

Ever since Meghan Markle and Prince Harry announced their royal retreat aka Megxit, we’ve been rooting for the couple — if not entirely sure what this step back will mean. Finally, we have new details from the Sussex couple’s spokesperson on what changes to expect for this ex-royal duo, and exactly when those changes will take effect. People confirms that Harry and Meghan will begin their new, less-royal life on March 31, after which they’ll no longer have an office at Buckingham Palace....

While many of Meghan Markle’s favorite fashion brands have attainable price points that don’t result in buyer’s remorse (Rothy’s, Madewell, and Cuyana to name a few), there’s one particular piece of arm candy she’s worn that’s been totally out of reach—or so we thought. ICYMI, in a gorgeous photo of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry released last year, Markle wore a stunning Cartier Tank watch that Princess Diana wore repeatedly throughout the 1990s....

Billionaire financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein died on Aug. 10, 2019 in his New York City jail cell, his cause of death ruled a suicide despite strong public suspicion that either his victims or his co-conspirators had conspired to have him killed. Epstein was arrested for the serial sex trafficking of underage girls, with years of witnesses and victims coming forward to describe how Epstein would lure in young girls with the promise of money or a job and sexually assault them with the alleged help of partner Ghislaine Maxwell, eventually forming a ring of girls who did the recruiting for them and were trafficked around the world and shared with Epstein’s wealthy friends — notably among them, former presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump....

As the highly transmissible COVID-19 variant Omicron brings a record number of cases, vaccinated and even boosted individuals are testing positive. School systems are moving classes back online, airlines are cancelling thousands of flights as pilots and flight attendants test positive and testing sites are overwhelmed with large crowds as we all re-think and revise our masking and social distancing comfort zones. “The concern is that it is much more contagious than previous variants, making it more likely that we and our children will get it,” said pediatrician Dr....

Know what’s expensive? Being pregnant. There’s maternity clothes, those damn prenatal vitamins, the loopy preggo pillow (if you’re lucky!). Know what’s even more expensive? Actually having the baby. In 2019, Business Insider reported that a normal, healthy, uncomplicated delivery in the U.S. costs an average of $10,808 — $30,000 if you factor in prenatal and postpartum care. And yes, insurance can cover much of the cost, but The New York Times points out that even new parents with insurance are left with an average bill of $3,400....

For some women, having multiple orgasms is the sexual Mount Everest of pleasure. However, Stella Harris, Intimacy Educator, Sex Coach, and author of Tongue Tied: Untangling Communication in Sex, Kink, and Relationships, tells SheKnows that multiple orgasms can be a bit of a misnomer. “The orgasms don’t necessarily happen one right after the other,” she explains. Multiples orgasms come in a variety of formats. For people with vulvas and vaginas, Harris notes that sometimes one kind of orgasm is one-and-done, but another may allow them to keep going....
