When you see a merger between two giants in a declining industry, it can look like the financial version of a couple having a baby to save a marriage.
Having a baby makes me grateful that I work for a company that does give you four months' leave. And my heart breaks for women that don't get that time with their child. As a mom, you're just not ready to go back immediately - physically, you can't. You just need some time not only to bond, but you need some time to heal.
I do not believe having a baby is punishment.
In my 20s, I was leaving university, getting married, or having a baby. And then, in my 30s, I was just keeping my head above water. When I hit 40, I thought, 'I have got to get a grip of my life and really point it in the direction I want it to go rather than just swim hard against the current.'
When you're making an album, it's kind of like having a baby. You have to really put everything into it.
The only way I'm interested in having a baby is the old-fashioned way.
I like showing moms what it's really like having a baby, and how it's not Hollywood life.
My husband and I were excited about having a kid - it was having a baby that had us worried. We had a lot to learn, so like good liberal arts graduates, we signed up for a class.
I'm definitely up for having a baby.
My wife and I would be very comfortable having a baby at home or using one of the terrific nurse-midwives at the hospital.
