February is American Heart Month, and I’ve partn February is American Heart Month, and I’ve partnered with @MedIQCME and Duke Health to raise awareness about atrial fibrillation (AFib), also known as irregular heartbeat which affects 12 million people.My father was diagnosed with AFib and my family has a history of this condition, so I do my best to learn as much as I can about it.

I’ve learned that when the atrium’s squeezing becomes irregular, blood doesn’t flow as smoothly through the heart and clots can form. Those clots can travel to the brain, disrupting the oxygen supply and causing a stroke. People with AFib are at approximately 5 times greater risk for stroke than those with regular heartbeats. Stroke is a leading cause of death and also of serious, long-term disability. It is essential to get to a hospital quickly if you suspect a stroke in yourself or others.Learn the acronym FAST to recognize the signs of stroke: 

F = Face. Ask the person to smile. Does one side of the face droop?

A = Arms. Ask the person to raise both arms. Does one arm drift downward? 

S = Speech. Ask the person to repeat a simple phrase. Is the speech slurred or strange?

T= Time. If you see any of these signs, call 9-1-1 right away.

Getting Baby Fever with Style Network’s Tamera Mowry-Housley (Tia & Tamera)


I have gone on record noting that my baby days are behind me. But every once in awhile, I get the familiar twinge of baby-itis, especially when I see a cute little baby, or one of my friends or relatives is expecting. What’s not to love about a new bundle of joy?

A few days ago, actress, television personality, reality star and the other half of the fabulous Tia and Tamera combo tweeted a photo of her growing baby bump. Tamera announced a few months ago that she was pregnant with her first child, which we now know is a boy. Her twin sister, Tia Mowry Hardict gave birth to her son, Cree, last year, and it was documented on the first season of their successful reality show, Tia and Tamera. Their second season began earlier this week on the Style Network.

Seeing the tweet of Tamera resplendent in all of her baby glory, glowing, and fabulous, made me feel a twinge of the baby-itis. At 36, I am not too over the hill to have a little one. But it may be a little awkward since I have a 18 year old who just graduated from high school and an 8 year old. Starting over again with a little baby isn’t something that I want to do—or is it? Last year, I even blogged about my wanting to possibly have another baby.

Of course, celebrities make having a baby looks so fabulous—and the rest of us know that isn’t the case. Most of us don’t have nannies, personal chefs, assistants, personal trainers, and all of the other fixins to make motherhood look so effortless and glamorous. And yet, we manage to do it just fine without the all of the bells and whistles.

So, yes I have baby fever—but I am sure it will be short lived. With all of the traveling that I do, as well as the hectic schedule I maintain, I don’t know how a baby would fit into all of that.

I do congratulate Tamera on her pregnancy and wish her and her husband the best. Motherhood is an amazing gift and blessing.

What do you think of Tamera Mowry-Housley’s pregnancy fabulousness?

    YAY1 I am so happy for her. Pregnancy definitely suits her. Everytime I see a cute pregnant lady I get the “FEVER’ so hopefully I will be blessed to have another child.

        I have always loved these girls. The Tia & Tamera show alolws you to see just how different they are. They have always been seen as the sappy sweet girls of TV but not on this show, it shows that they are not so perfect after all. Can’t wait for The Game to come back on and I’m waiting for Tamera to get her a show as well

    I love these two sisters. Finally a reality show that I can watch that is about being positive and not about physical violence!
