Mothers can agree that the greatest gift is having a child.

But even blessings such as the miracle of birth have consequences, say, on the social lives of parents.


Amy Schumer and her husband Chris Fischer welcomed their first "royal baby" boy on May 5 – within an hour and a half before Meghan Markle and Prince Harry welcomed their first child who is also a boy.

However, as far as actress Jennifer Lawrence is concerned, it's "ho's before bro's," or in this case, babies.

While her bestie is undoubtedly over the moon for Schumer – who suffered from a debilitating pregnancy – Lawrence misses her late night interactions with Schumer prior to the arrival of baby Gene Attell Fischer.

Lawrence's frustration was evident in a hilarious text exchange that wound up being a one-sided convo for the Dark Phoenix and The Hunger Games actress.

Schumer shared a screenshot of the text in which Lawrence had an urgent inquiry pertaining to Hulu's The Handmaid's Tale.

Lawrence just needed to know about a certain plot point from the critically-acclaimed show.

"You up? I have questions about hand maids take."
"Tale"
"It's an emergency"

When she didn't hear back from Schumer, who presumably used to be a night owl before adjusting to motherhood, Lawrence cranked things up a notch.

"Amy!!! What did she do on season 1 to deserve being in the gallows on season 2"

After carrying on a conversation with herself, Lawrence finally addressed something based on a hunch.

"I can't remember where I left off. Are you asleep bc of the baby??? Are you asleep before 11? Is this bc of the baby? Don't make me resent the baby"
"Wow"
"Ur really asleep before 11. I'll be damned"

The Trainwreck actress and comedian WAS asleep and responded to Lawrence the following morning.

"Everybody keeping their cool about me having a baby," Schumer wrote, with the words scrawled across a screenshot of Lawrence's needy text.




On June 5, Schumer acknowledged a sacrifice had to be made.

"Oh ok so I can't watch handmaids anymore. #filledwithregret"

This isn't the first time Lawrence engaged in a solo convo with Schumer via text.

In April, she wrote:

"What're you doing tonight? You and chris wanna get dinner? Or hang? Also about to go to the park."

After she was left hanging, Lawrence canceled the proposed rendezvous and wrote:

"Haha I can't get dinner tonight I have plans."

Schumer finally chimed in and quipped:

"Good talk."

Schumer and Lawrence have been very close since the pair were spotted vacationing in the Hamptons in 2015.

A movie starring the two as sisters and written by both of them is still in development.

During her pregnancy, Schumer suffered from a condition called hyperemesis gravidarum in which the 37-year-old actress had perpetual morning sickness and left her dehydrated, forcing her to cancel shows.

After successfully giving birth to Gene, courtesy of her birthing team including her husband Chris's doula, she wrote in an empowering pregnancy takeaway post:

"Men are cool and whatever but women are f*****g warriors and capable of anything."

It's been over a month, and as Schumer is acclimating to her new role as a mom, dishing on The Handmaid's Tale can wait.

Right, Auntie Jennifer?

If you missed what happened in season 1 OR season 2 of The Handmaid's Tale, you can get season 1 here and season 2 here. Of course, you could always read the book.

One of life's most unfortunate moments is when we feel our lives are genuinely in danger.

These horrific moments can involve the behavior of people with malicious intentions or just being at the wrong place and time.

Even though many people live to share their harrowing stories, the trauma doesn't necessarily go away completely.

But all anyone who's experienced a terrifying ordeal can do to find peace is to count their blessings and be grateful they are survivors.

Perhaps the best thing about our friends is that we can always rely on them.

To help us out, to give us words of comfort and wisdom when we need them, or to just be a willing pair of ears.

Even so, our friends still have a way of surprising us, as well as disappointing us from time to time.

Sometimes they'll do things that just make us groan and roll our eyes but are easily forgiven over time.

Other times, however, they might do or say something which can only be described as "f*cked up."

Potentially putting an effective end to your friendship.

When you gotta go, you go.

That should be a mantra for getting rid of the toxic people in our lives.

Not every relationship is meant to last forever.

Some people don't know how to be friends.

They are awfully good at pretending though.

Be vigilant of the signs and red flags.

Toxic people are crafty.

And once you're free, never look back.

There's nothing quite like the drama that can arise at a wedding or in the days leading up to it.

But the moment people don't necessarily think about is the moment when the audience can choose to object if they so choose, and surprisingly, some people take advantage of this opportunity. It often doesn't go well.
