Congratulations to Jen and Vince. I wish them a world of happiness. I think Katie needs to hold Tommy's hand while in labor. I'd love to see if Tom could "keep" quiet as she squeezed his hand!

Her family may not even be allowed to be there: Dramatic Birth

Obviously L. Ron Hubbard never gave birth! (Neither have I but even I know that it often hurts a lot!)

I watched the story of Leah Remini's daughter's birth. She's a Scientologist and they had the whole quiet thing. Her family was all there with her.

I have nothing against it IF that is what the woman giving birth wants and she has every right to change her mind AND to ask for an epidural. I'm surprised they don't dictate a C-section .. even quieter.

Question for all those women out there who have had children.............Raise your hands if you were even able to read while you were in transition???? As someone who was in labor for 39 hours, keep quiet???? ROFLMAO. That is too funny

A c-section would require anesthesia which would effect the newborn and I think that is what Scientology is attempting to avoid. Instead of holding Tom's hand, maybe she hold him by the privates and see if he can remain quiet.

I can honestly say I'm not a yeller or screamer and no pain meds,-- but man, the woman next door was! LOL The nurse kept shutting the door to my room, but it was so stinkin' hot, I kept opening it back up. When she shut it on her way IN to the room, I was finally able to ask her to leave it open. She was worried the "noise" would scare me! LOL Labor was probably one of the only times I've been labeled quiet!

Is it just me, or is anyone else getting a Rosemary's Baby-type vibe off this deal?

Yep Goddess, I am thinking more like a Michael Jackson type deal, she will dissappear in to the shadows and he will get a baby 100% his to control, no joint custody. I wonder if she isnt doing the surrogate thing for him.

Maris, I'm wondering if she's really pregnant at all based on their consistently unbelievable presentation as a couple. I would take my birthing drugs washed down with a Long Island Ice Tea if the hospital (with real doctors and nurses and licenses and whatnot) would allow.

I had an epidural for my first birth and nothing for my second and I have to say that my second experience was much better than the first. Maybe I'm just strange but I would rather do it without any drugs.

I don't understand ... is Katie not allowed drugs during her birth?? And yet she's expected to stay quiet?? Oh my goodness!

There aint no amount of brain washing in this world that will stop that girl from asking for drugs if she wants them.

Regarding Katie, a number of times I've heard Tom say, "I'm doing this...." and "I'm doing that...." Not "we're...." Like he's got her under lock and key and he's in total control. Well, Tom, YOU are not birthin' this baby! He's too weird. What has Katie got herself into? I wonder if she regrets....

"I wonder if she regrets ..." That is so sad. Here she's going to have this beautiful child. But she's going to be tied to this crazy man for the rest of her life. I hope she's having some say in this whole process because it does seem like he is doing it all his way.
