(andPOP) - Is Hollywood also on strike from birth control pills?
Ethan Hawke and "24" star Mary Lynn Rajskub both joined the expectant parents list yesterday. Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale confirmed they were expecting a second child on Tuesday, as did Dixie Chick Martie Maguire on Sunday. And of course there's those pesky rumours that Brad and Angelina are expecting twins.
The famous children grow up much too fast. Already, Nicole Richie and Christina Aguilera's newborns are battling over which will bring in the most cash for an exclusive photo spread.
The trend may actually be in part because of the Writer's Guild Strike, because as productions have shut down, stars feel they finally have time to start a family.
So if you're having trouble keeping track, 2008 will reveal the fruit of the following celebrities' loins:
Julianna Marguilies
Chris Noth
Omar Epps
John C. McGinley
Kevin Weisman
Vincent D'Onofrio
