She wrote: "Her name is a mix of things I love. I have always loved the name Lou so was thinking of that for both a boy or a girl but then when we found out she was a girl we came up with Louetta. We wanted to give her options and me and my dads favorite singers are Lou=Louie Armstrong, Etta=Etta Jones, Isley=Isley Brother."
Bruce Willis diagnosed with dementia as family release emotional statementRumer gave some tips for new moms as she was called an "inspiration" by fans. She revealed more about her baby's bathing routine, explaining that they've incorporated it into their bedtime routine and bathe her daily. However, she admitted that they don't use soap on baby Louetta daily.
The young star's pregnancy and budding motherhood comes amid some troubling health concerns from her father. Last year, Bruce was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia. The health complication can cause a change in personality, behaviour, and issues with language and movement.
His diagnosis has weighed heavy on the family as his daughters have been sharing their happy memories with him on social media. His wife, Emma Heming Willis, opened up in a candid way about the strain the situation put on her. She explained that she has trouble asking for help as a caregiver.
In a YouTube video, she said: "Usually what tends to happen is the friend asks what they can do to help, but that just puts another added task on a caregiver to have to dictate, then teach and most times we just don’t have the bandwidth for it. But what I know is we do need help and we do need to learn to ask for it because if we don’t it is not sustainable."
