Naomi Watts’ Wish? A Baby Girl Guarantee!

Courtesy SHE

She may not have all the answers when it comes to balancing kids and career, but at 41, Naomi Watts is no longer on the hunt for perfection.

“I see myself as any other working woman. Every day I’m struggling to get it right, do the best I can, make the right choices for work, be a good mother and have time for my relationship with Liev [Schreiber],” she admits in SHE‘s May issue.

“I’m never sure whether I’m doing any of it right, but I’ve finally got to the age where at least I know that I’m doing my best.”

Although fulfilling her acting duties while raising sons Alexander ‘Sasha’ Pete, 2½, and Samuel Kai, 16 months, is quite the juggling act, Watts would be willing to add a third child to the bunch — under one condition!

“If I could guarantee myself a girl, I’d say yes,” she reveals. “But I’d be sure to have another boy! I always knew I’d have boys.”

And for now Watts is happy to concentrate her efforts on her testosterone-fueled household — including fiancé Schreiber, whom she insists on spending quality time with at least one night a week.

“We’re not party people,” she says of their low-key date nights. “My ideal night in is a good meal, a glass of wine and Liev. That’s heaven for me.”

Alysia Reiner Says Sharing Milk Was an ‘Unexpected Gift’

Since welcoming daughter Livia Charles in Dec. 2008, Alysia Reiner has learned to expect the unexpected — especially when it comes to breastfeeding.

“I didn’t even know if I would make enough [milk] for one baby, as a small-breasted woman I was actually very concerned about that,” she admits in a new interview with Best for Babes.

However, when her fears were put to rest — Reiner, 39, eventually discovered her concerns are a common myth — the Sideways actress began storing her extra supply for emergencies, only to find she’d build up a stock she had no need for.

“So I started looking into donating it to a milk bank,” she explains. But a simple twist of fate led Reiner to coordinate with a friend in need instead.

“I spoke to a friend who was having a very hard time with breastfeeding and suggested she look into milk banks,” Reiner shares. “Then it dawned on us … to just do a direct donation. So I am happy to be able to share my milk with another mom’s baby.”

And while nursing Liv “is heaven and such a gift,” Reiner admits sharing her milk “was the most incredibly unexpected gift of all.”

(Best for Babes cautions moms about potential health risks of milksharing, and recommends that moms wishing to donate or access human milk go through the Human Milk Bank Association of North America.)
