http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28843996/ congrats molly!! shes expecting twins which will be a little brother and sister to her 5 year old daughter she already has.. they will be writing her pregnancy into the show she is starring in "the secret life of an american teenager" so that will be interesting!! man a lot of stars have given birth to twins havent they?? do you like it when the actresses's pregnancies are written into the storyline of the shows they are in? or would you rather they not be and all their scenes be shot from the chest up or their character go on vacation? lol

It usually doesn't bother when there pregnancy is written in but to me, that show would be odd with molly being pregnant with the daughter being pregnant as well. Especially since in the show she and her husband are separated. I don't know it just seems that they should cover it up in that show.

why wouldnt i have seen father of the bride 2? i loved those movies.. been forever since i seen it though.. and whats funny is that is how it was with my mom getting pregnant with me.. she thought she was going through the change so i didnt have like any prenatal care

Makes me think of the father of the bride 2, just the people involved are older. And knowing you you never seen the movie so i tell you. A woman thinks she is going through menopause and she is actually pregnant and when they go to tell the family, her daughter who was recently married said she was pregnant as well. It worked in that movie because thats what it was about...in the show its about the teenage daughter being pregnant and the mother showing up pregnant just doesn't work.

That is awesome..I always wanted twins. Maybe if I kept going after three kids I could of had a set. I do enjoy when an actresses pregnacy is written in to the storyline. It not only shows what a great producer tjhe show has but it also tends to put moms in the spotlight. We need to have that happen more. Even if it tends to be a teaching tool. I think pregnat woman are beautiful and just give off a glow.

if i were the actress i would be worried that i would be fired if i just popped up pregnant but i guess holly wood is doing a lot more accepting with that kind of thing now

WOW that is crazy. I would never have guessed she was that age already LOL I like seeing pregnancies put into storylines on shows it makes it better. i wonder tho if she will take time off after the babies are born hmm...

you never know when it comes to actresses.. actings so much their life they may not know how to take time away.. she at least brings her daughter already there so its not like she cant at least bring them on set..

It's hard to believe she is 40....I still remember her from sixteen candles as that skinny little kid going to prom! I like it when they write it into the story line....makes it kind of nice for everyone to see the progression of the pregnancy!

And here i just read it in the People magazine..I need to keep up on weekly news..lol.. I saw her and thought how grown up she looked and now a Mom and soon 2 more..I always thought as women got older they did fertility treatments to get more babies out of it since they started later, but then we will never know if so since its her personal life and none of our business..

i got the feeling from the article it wasnt from fertility treatments but so many stars do them now a days i guess its impossible to know unless they say something

the likelihood of twins increases as you get older.. which is prolly why alot of folks are having them with people waiting till their late 30`s and more to have kids. me personally.. i like it when they write it into the storyline. makes it more realistic.
