And what good timing it all is! Nicole’s contract with the soap recently expired, and she’s decided not to renew it and to have a little “me” time!

“I am getting married in October, and I am expecting a baby in February!” she told Soap Opera Digest.

“I am so happy and excited about embarking on these two most wonderful adventures, and I’m so grateful to have some extra time now to embrace them fully.”

Double congratulations to Nicole!

If you’ve ever struggled to settle your baby on a flight, just try this handy trick from new mom Elisabeth Rohm.

“I was told to breastfeed upon departure and arrival because [that's] when their ears are popping, so it’s nice that they’re distracted,” the actress told OK! magazine. “That’s what I did, and it worked.”

Apparently four-month-old Easton August was so well behaved on a recent plane ride that “people were thanking me when the planes landed because she didn’t cry.” But that’s hardly surprising. While baby Easton is very expressive, she rarely gets upset.

“She’s very connected to the people she loves. She’s sitting up. She laughs out loud - squeals, screams with delight. I’m like ‘Is that normal?’”

Easton has taken over the lives of Elisabeth and her fiancé Ron Wooster. And there’s someone else who’s had to adjust: Elisabeth’s golden retriever Homer.

“I keep calling him a saint because having a new baby, he has been demoted from kingdom. He is now second place to the baby.

“He’s confirming why I love him so much because it was very much a dog’s house before it became a baby-and-dog house!” she enthused.

Easton and Homer will both play a part in the ceremony when Ron and Elisabeth tie the knot in October.
