Ok, so I just began reading this, but I have to say that a silent child birth will actually prolong labor. If you exert that much energy trying to keep yourself from screaming or moaning, it will only lessen the amount of energy you will exert to pushing. Not to gross out any non mothers, but when you are in the pushing stage those moans are coming straight from your gut and signify how deeply and hard you are pushing to help this child out. To push only slightly as to prevent moaning, you would simply be extending the pain. Doesn't make much sense to me.

Tom Cruise has channeled his inner Donald Trump: He told his sister/publicist Lee Anne DeVette that she's fired.
Tom gave his big sis Lee Anne DeVette the heave-ho after a string of bad press this year, which includes his couch jumping on Oprah, public attack of Brooke Shields and all his Scientology talk.
According to one report, Tom has really lost his likeability factor in the last year. The one-time Top Gun has gone from the 11th most-liked celebrity to No. 197, where freaky Pauly Shore is ranked.
Lee Anne, who has no clients other than Tom and his bride-to-be Katie Holmes, is said to be taking over Tom's "charitable endeavors." Celebrity mouthpiece Paul Bloch, co-chairman for publicity firm Rogers & Cowan, will be Tom's new mouthpiece.
Two words, fella: Good luck!

Thanks for the notice, Remi. I have two Hebrew dictionaries, and they both translate princess as Neseecha. Oh well...  |

Thanks Remi!  I was wondering when the baby would be born. In recent pictures, Katie has looked like she was about to pop at any second. I did think she looked healthy and more realistic looking than some of the more recent celebrity pregnant women......um Heidi Klum? 9 mos. pregnant and wearing spiked heels and mini skirts with gorgeous legs with no sign of cellulite? Angelina? She looks like she's gained about 10 pounds altogether. Not that I'm jealous or anything....... Beth, whose weight was somewhere between Heidi Klum and Ruben Studdard at 9 mos. pregnant **edited to add that I like the name Brooke chose for her new baby girl. I think Grier is lovely and it goes well with Rowan.** |

I'm happy that Katie had a healthy baby but I still can't stand Tom Cruise.  Congrats to Brooke Shields! Grier is a beautiful name. |

Suri is indeed a beautiful name (whether Hebrew or not).
I just worry about her being teased by other kids because of that song from "Oklahoma":
"Chicks and ducks and geese better scurry, when I take you out in the surrey..."
Oh well, there's almost no name that is tease-free.
