Anyone who believes this happens often raise your hand

From another Tom Cruise/Katie Holmes article:

In other reports, when it comes time for the actress to give birth in several months, it has been suggested that Holmes will attempt a silent labor in keeping with Scientology tradition.

The practice encourages mothers to be to forgo painkillers and to refrain from screaming or even talking as they bring their children into the world. Scientologists believe that the silence reduces trauma during birth and prevents irrational fears later in life.

  • It's been shown that babies do better if the mother has something to make the pain more bearable because it puts less strain on the baby when birthing. Go for the drugs. There's no feeling of relief in the world like the one you get when the epidural kicks in. And I'm not kidding.

  • I know when I was in labor, I didn't make a sound and I had no drugs, I must be a scientologist.
