TALK TO JULIA

The Back Labor Blog

Forty Weeks Founder Julia Beck takes you behind the velvet ropes in the brave new world of Bump and Baby. Pregnancy trends, media coverage of parenting, research and recent findings, celebrity pregnancy and baby, the business that keeps it all in motion are among the topics that Julia covers in her signature candid and open style.

I have no idea what Webster's says about it – but Julia says: Back Labor is the ultimate pain on the way to the most delicious reward! Back labor hurts like a bitch, but it's all worth it in the end. And that about sums up our "lives behind the velvet ropes" here at Forty Weeks. We invite you into our Labor Room – via the Forty Weeks' Back Labor Blog. Read about how we do what we do, and follow along our labor of love that really pays off for our clients, and hear a little about the juicy behind-the-scenes bits, too!

And Forty Weeks wouldn't be who we are without the people – our dedicated crew and the BFFs of Forty Weeks and, of course – you too! We love to hear your comments, so please join in the conversation.

And then there was also the opening of Gucci’s new home on 5th.

Yes, I know - lots of controversy around this one. I say everybody wins, and rather than going there — you know, the Julia argument about marketing + phianthropy = increased awareness, funds and understanding = good – I will stay on the light side (long week with Super Tuesday and all) for a moment…

The room was filled with some of the most glamourous, philanthropic and commited Moms imaginable - Among the guests - Madaona, Selma, Heidi, Tea, Nelly, Demi, Katie, Gwyneth, Jennifer Lopez (in rich chocolate brown was a major stunner - that glow, that bump — perfection) and my personal favorite look - Gwen Stefani in an African inspired key hole halter gown - who was simply georgous from head to toe. Dying to work with Gwen on a maternity range…
