If you could guarantee me that I’d be as happy a pregnant woman as Halle Berry is, I’d keep myself knocked up and pregnant like a milk cow for the rest of my life. The woman actually says she loves the hot sweats and the throwing up and all the terrible, atrocious things that come with being pregnant. I always assumed those things were God’s way of letting us know not to pop out too many babies. It’s like natural population control. Of course if we were all like Halle Berry, there’d be about 12 billion extra people hanging out. Or something like that, I don’t believe in math.

“For expectant mom Halle Berry, her current condition is all good – even the wardrobe. ‘There’s no bad,’ the Oscar winner, 41, said Sunday at a press gathering for her new movie, Things We Lost in the Fire, which opens Oct. 19. ‘There is nothing bad about it. The morning sickness and the vomiting and the hot sweats. Nothing’s been bad about it. I’ve loved every second of it,’ she said.

“Holding up four fingers when asked how many months along she is, Berry also said, in response to a query about ‘maternity chic’ and what she’s wearing these days, ‘I think I feel like I’m such a slave to fashion. It’s a hard concept for me to fathom that I’m going to have to wear maternity clothes.’ But, as she also sees it, ‘Fashion is on my side.’ Indicating her empire waist, she adds, ‘Everything is up here and shift-y, so I think I can work it out in normal clothes with normal designers in their collections until the eighth or ninth month, then I might have to break down and do maternity.’”

That woman is cra-to-the-z. Seriously. She loves the morning sickness? I know women who are desperate to have kids are super happy when they finally get pregnant, but is it normal to actually love all the terrible parts too? I’ll probably kick myself for saying that in ten years. But if she’s that happy, that’s great, I wish the rest of us could feel so good.

Halle spent the weekend attending the premiere for her new movie with David Duchovny and Benicio del Toro, “Things We Lost in the Fire.” For some reason boyfriend and baby daddy Gabriel Aubry didn’t accompany her, and instead Berry was escorted by del Toro. I’m not going to go so far as to say there’s trouble, but I do find that a little weird, given all the public baby promotion she’s been doing lately. Let’s hope everything is cool with them.
