Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds welcomed their second child last week, according to reports that surfaced a few days ago.
Details are sketchy at this stage. We’re not sure if the baby is a boy or a girl or what his or her name is. We’re not even clear on when the child was born. Which is fair enough; who wants the entire world up in your grill in the days after you have a baby? This family, as much as any other, have a right to privacy.
Yesterday, Lively attended the wedding of one of her closest friends and she shared a couple of gorgeous photos from the day on her Instagram.

I remember when I was a teaching and a heavily pregnant mother came in to drop her kid off in the morning and came back with the newborn bubba in the arvo, it was her 5th.
After my first baby I literally couldn't stand fully upright for about a week and my downstairs area looked like a purple balloon animal. I had to lower myself in and out of chairs like a geriatric.
Even after my second, which was a much easier birth and I was ready to go home within hours, the lochia (post partum bleeding) was really heavy and the couple stitches I had were still stinging a bit when I went to the loo. Combine that with sleep-deprivation, milk coming in, 3 day blues and the desire to do nothing but stare at; and snuggle with; my gorgeous baby, I can't imagine going off to a wedding would be a fun prospect, even if I had someone to do my hair and makeup to make things easier.
Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't miss my best friends wedding for anything, but it would not be effortless.
