Expecting a daughter via surrogate next month, The Young and the Restless star Michelle Stafford celebrated her baby shower with nearly 70 friends and family on Saturday at the home of Kirstie Alley.

With a theme of “fun, fantasy and fairies,” Michelle and pals Jenna Elfman, Marisol Nichols, Jennifer Aspen and Tracey Bergman gathered at the Tupperware-sponsored party for a traditional English tea, enjoying sandwiches from Chado, scones from Julienne, their choice of over a dozen teas and clotted cream, homemade by Michelle’s mother.

Recounting her “three-year journey through hell,” the two-time Emmy winner gifted those who had helped her most with a Tiffany & Co. ring, saying, “Every time you see my daughter do something good, you’ll know that you were a part of that.”

Guests then played baby Pictionary before leaving with a vanilla bean cupcake topped with a glittery lavender-tinted frosting from Yummy Cupcakes and a Tupperware Cupcake Keeper.

Expectant mama Camila Alves leads the way as she and son Levi, 16 months, stroll in Malibu, Calif. on Monday.

Although Camila is looking casual here, the model has been spotted out and about at events in the past week — on Friday, she hit all the right notes in a black one-shouldered gown and was pretty in purple last Tuesday!

She and Matthew McConaughey expect their second child in late December/early January.

Speaking from Boston on Saturday at the High Hopes Gala to benefit diabetes research, singer Robin Thicke revealed that should he experience a flight delay on the way home, he would have plenty of reading material to help pass the time — namely, What to Expect When You’re Expecting.

“I have the book,” he told the Boston Herald. “I haven’t cracked it yet, but it’s sitting in my travel bag.”

With wife Paula Patton due to deliver the couple’s first child in late spring, there is a world of unknown awaiting the couple, but Robin says that some things are easy to predict.

“I know it’ll be a good singer. There’s too much musical DNA for it not to be.”

Robin, 32, and Paula, 33, were married in 2005.

Pregnancy suits Paula Patton well! During a Friday visit to The Tyra Show, the Precious actress couldn’t contain her excitement — and Tyra Banks took notice. “You look like you’re glowing,” the host prompted.

With Paula quick to respond that her “special glow” is only “for a short period of time,” confirming that she is 3 months pregnant, the mama-to-be revealed that she and her husband Robin Thicke are anxiously awaiting the day to find out whether they will be seeing pink or blue.

“The next doctor visit I find out, so we’re excited,” she shares.

Thrilled to welcome their first child, Paula and Robin are still unsure about just how many more babies will follow.

“Two would be good for me,” Paula laughs. “If I could have twins — a boy and a girl — I’d be done!”

However, Robin seems to be thinking in larger numbers.

“He would have five, but you know how men are…I’m like, ‘That’s gonna be with someone else, baby! That’s not gonna be with me!’”

Precious is now in theaters.

Due with her first child on November 30th, Judy Reyes is quickly approaching the finish line — and has much to show for it! Speaking to Celebrity Baby Blog at the Asics and Hello Kitty gifting lounge, the Scrubs star explains that the pregnancy has left her navigating uncharted waters on more than one occasion.

Fortunately, Judy isn’t alone; In addition to her boyfriend George Valencia, she says she relies heavily on her sisters, both mothers of 1-year-olds.

“I call them like, ‘Oh, this hurts,’ or ‘I’ve got the hemorrhoids,’ which I’m not ashamed to say,” she laughs.

“I’m delivering this bit of trauma and they’re like, ‘Oh, yeah [in feigned sympathy].’ All they tell me is, ‘Just relax and breathe through it. It will pass. Go through your exercises. Do your walking or your yoga and it will pass. It’s coming. It’s almost over. The pay off is going to be worth it.’”

Judy, 43, and George are more than happy to share their daughter’s due date details, but explain that their final pick for her name is being kept under wraps.

“We haven’t even told our family because we’re amazed at how opinionated people are even when you’re just speculating on a name,” she notes, adding that she is often put off by the constant stream of suggestions. “They either tell you who they know has that name or what kind of person they were, which automatically clouds your reasons.”

And while the name has been decided on, Judy admits baby girl’s bedroom is still a work in progress! “We have nothing close to a nursery, and yet we’ve been blessed with so much s–t we don’t even know what to do with!” she laughs.

According to the mama-to-be, she has dodged the bullet when it comes to unusual pregnancy cravings. That said, Judy insists on starting each morning with a muffin — no flavor preference! “I don’t discriminate with the muffins,” she jokes.

“In October during Halloween, it was pumpkin chocolate chip muffins. That was off the hook.”

Her love of carbs is easily offset by her devotion to fitness. Calling exercise a “godsend” over the past few months, Judy — who focuses on yoga and walking — has had to slow down considerably as her belly continues to grow. “It goes from every day to four times a week to two times a week because everything just gets really heavy. It’s kind of like walking underwater,” she shares.

Looking forward to meeting her daughter on delivery day, Judy can’t contain her excitement — or fears! — when it comes to envisioning life with baby. “We have so many emotions attached to what it’s going to feel like when she comes,” she confesses.

“Time slows down the closer it gets because of the physical trauma that’s attached to it. It’s like, ‘Oh my God, it’s really getting closer.’ There’s anxiety and pressure because you really do want to be a good parent.”
