How did you do?

35 - 50: You are a celebrity baby expert. You could easily get a job working as Tom and Katie's nanny or help Brad and Angelina with their bundle of joy. In fact, are you sure you weren't at the birth of some of these precious tots?

15 - 35: Your knowledge of the celebrity baby boom gurgles but is not ga-ga. It seems you have only been cooing over some of the star tots but handing back the others. You need some lessons from such dedicated parents as Gwyneth and Chris.

0-15: Where have you been?! Either you've been living under a rock or babies just aren't your thing. If Brad and Angelina handed you their tot you would probably hand it back quicker than Tom could say "Scientology". Perhaps celebrity weddings are your thing, when are Tom and Katie tying the knot again?
