Marcia Cross gets out of bed long enough to visit UCLA for a Dr’s appointment.  Her twins are due in April.

Desperate Housewives star Marcia Cross is desperately trying to find something to wear to the Golden Globe Awards ceremony on January 15 because she’s heavily pregnant with twins. The 44-year-old first-time mom is due to give birth this spring and is nominated for an award for her role as Bree Van De Camp on the popular TV series.

She explains, “I’m going to the show if I can waddle out of the house. I don’t know what kind of tent they are going to put me in. I’m thinking black or navy. It’s not going to be a high-fashion year for me. And I’m thinking barefoot. I deserve it!”

“Desperate Housewives” star Marcia Cross is facing a serious pregnancy complication she fears could jeopardize the health of her unborn twins.

A recent ultrasound revealed the 44-year-old actress, who is due in April, is suffering from placenta previa, say pals. The condition is caused by all or part of the placenta covering the opening to the cervix.

And one insider maintains that a panicked Marcia recently rushed off the “DH” set and headed straight to her doctor’s office when she started suffering from cramps and bleeding.

“Marcia’s doctor checked the fetuses’ heartbeats, and found them to be perfectly healthy,” a source close to the actress told The ENQUIRER.

“Marcia was relieved, but her doctor warned her that she had better slow down and take things easy.”

The doctor also performed an ultrasound on the fetuses and discovered the placenta previa, says the source. Placenta previa is a potentially life-threatening condition that causes the placenta to precede the baby during birth, and severe hemorrhaging can occur during labor.

“The problem might resolve itself as the fetuses grow and pull the placenta away from the danger area — but if it doesn’t work itself out, it could endanger both her and the twins,” added the source.

DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES star MARCIA CROSS isn’t planning on wasting time becoming a mum after marrying stockbroker TOM MAHONEY on Saturday - she was planning to adopt before her TV comeback.

Pal LORI LOUGHLIN tells America’s TV Guide magazine that Cross was so desperate to have a child just before Desperate Housewives became a hit, she confided in her that she was planning to adopt.

That was before she met Mahoney - when Cross feared she’d never meet Mr Right.

Now she has, actress Loughlin insists her pal has motherhood on her mind.

She says, “She wants to start a family. Marcia would love to have children.”
