Alex Kuczynski, the NYT reporter whose father is an investment banker  
& former finance minister of Peru, and who covers the rich and their  
pursuits for the paper.]

Rent-a-womb

HAVING a baby without nasty stretch marks is all the rage among rich  
socialites. Last week, Alex Kuczynski, 40, announced she and her  
billionaire hubby, Charles Stevenson, were giving birth using her  
egg, his sperm and another woman's uterus. Now comes word that social  
swan/Vogue editrix Lauren Davis , 31, wants to rent a womb as well.  
Davis, who just married Colombian billion-heir Andres Santo Domingo,  
told friends she's looking for a "gestational carrier." That takes  
care of those pesky stretch marks, morning sickness and labor pains!  
Davis is on her honeymoon and didn't return e-mails.
