The actress took to her personal blog to speak of her &#8220;journey&#8221; in trying for children, saying, &#8220;The one true hurdle I&#8217;ve faced in life is that I have a broken belly. After years of trying to get pregnant, exploring the range of fertility treatments, all unsuccessful, our journey led us to gestational surrogacy: we make a &#8216;baby cake&#8217; and bake it in another woman&#8217;s oven&#8221; She also told fans that she had chosen the name &#8216;Felix&#8217; because it means both &#8216;happy&#8217; and &#8216;lucky&#8217; in Latin. The 37-year-old was immediately congratulated by a number of celebrities that included Busy Phillips and Rainn Wilson on Twitter.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nElizabeth Banks is set to appear in forthcoming action-adventure movie &#8216;Man on a Ledge&#8217;, starring Sam Worthington, Ed Harris and Kyra Sedgwick.
