Hi, it’s Monday, June 9, 2008 and I’m Melisse Hinkle with today’s UPI Entertainment Update. Jessica Alba is a new mom. The actress reportedly gave birth to a baby girl on Saturday. Alba and her husband, Cash Warren, named their daughter Honor Marie Warren. This is their first child. The couple married last month at the Beverly Hills courthouse after getting engaged last December. In a recent interview, Alba told “Fit Pregnancy” she plans to be the kind of mother who strikes a balance between being an authority figure and being a gentle parent who’s open to hearing about her child’s problems. Patrick Swayze isn’t slowing down. Despite his battle with pancreatic cancer, the actor plans to move forward with his work on a new television project this summer. Swayze will play FBI agent Charles Barker in a drama called “The Beast,” which will air on A&E. The actor went public with his cancer diagnosis three months after shooting the pilot of the show, which is now set to film in Chicago and premiere in early 2009. The “Dirty Dancing” star is reportedly responding well to treatment he’s receiving at Stanford University Medical Center and he’ll continue with his care while working on the new show.

Anteater birth at Discovery Cove! Amazing
The first lesser anteater born at Discovery Cove in Orlando is doing well after two weeks of intensiveOrlando is doing well after two weeks of intensive care by the parks animal training staff. The female was born Tuesday, Sept. 16, via the first c-section the parks vets had ever done on an anteater. Staff veterinarians performed the operation as the mom was in labor for more than 24 hours and showed little progress. It was a success but the new mom showed little interest in her first baby. Animal trainers quickly stepped in and provided the tiny new baby additional supplemental bottle feedings around the clock (every four hours) while slowly introducing her to her mom. Now nursing full time, the baby is tipping the scales at less than one pound and is more than 5 inches long. She now spends her days nursing, resting and bonding with mom.

Dreams about giving birth to toy baby dolls?
I dreamt I was pregnant and giving birth in someone’s living room with another woman who I didn’t know. After delivering two babies I walked over to them in their carriages and saw that my two children were dolls and the other was real. The two that were mine seemed so real except that I noticed their fingers were fused together and they weren’t making any noise. I’m in a year and a half long relationship, not married, and I’m not pregnant. He just graduated college, I have a year left but over-all our relationship is going really well.
