Hmm... where have we heard this one before?

First comes the engagement confirmation, then the announcement that a baby is on the way.

We just saw it with Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz and Salma Hayek and Francois-Henri Pinault (though their engagement was short lived) and now the rumor mill is buzzing about actress Uma Thurman and her new multi-millionaire fiancé Arpad Busson.

The pair just announced that they plan to marry sometime next year and now reports claim that the "Kill Bill" star is pregnant with Busson's baby.

If the rumors are true the new baby would be Thurman's third child. She already has a 10-year-old daughter Maya and a 6-year-old son Levon by her former husband, actor Ethan Hawke.

The statuesque actress has been dating her Swiss businessman fiancé for a year, but the pregnancy rumors only came to light after Thurman was photographed with what appeared to be a protruding stomach.

The New York Daily News ran photos of the 38-year-old wearing a bikini while vacationing on the island of Corsica last week and alluded that the star might have a baby on board.

One star that we know is "no doubt" pregnant is pop star Gwen Stefani.

The singing sensation and her rocker husband Gavin Rossdale are expecting their second child in a couple of months, but they have not acknowledged the child's gender.

Last week, though, word got out that Stefani is expecting a baby boy.

According to reports, the No Doubt singer is carrying a baby brother for her 2-year-old son Kingston James McGregor Rossdale.

The New York Post is reporting that Stefani and Rossdale painted the new baby's nursery black, but are now reconsidering changing the color scheme.

The musically talented pair wed in 2002 and has said that they would like a "house full" of kids.

A black nursery? I do hope they reconsider that, poor kid!

Uma looks pregnant. She is always so thin and that pooch on her doesn't look like an extra helping of mashed potatoes or PMS bloating.

Or a 9-pound burrito... she's another Nicole Kidman in the making. I wonder how the kids are taking the news that they will be getting a new sibling from each of their parents... weird.
