this whole scenario is so wrong

i really hope that all of this is not true and kate figures out what a wack job tom's turned into, before it's too late.

Here's a very interesting page on "The Birth of a Scientologist"

http://www.ilsehruby.at/Thetanbirth.html

Among other things, it says that after birth, the baby should be left alone, without any human contact, for about a day. Is that so it can develop into an antisocial moron who will one day promote Scientology to others?

Points well taken. Although I will add - and I have witnesses - that I thought he was as gay as a picnic basket as early as Risky Business!!

Frankly, I think the whole pregnancy thing is/was planned by the Scientologists to try to bolster Tom's image. Too bad it's just making him looking sillier than ever.

can you imagine how much therapy this kid is going to need

Quite familiar with that concept, thanks.

It didn't seem like it according to your first post, but you're welcome.

I still think those two deserve each other!:rolleyes:

I agree with AnonAlumna. My doctor never told me a thing about DHA, and the first time I ever saw anything about it was on a label of formula about 8 months after giving birth.

I'm really thankful that my husband is so open-minded. He was completely supportive of my birth plan (which included an epidural and a couple of other pain relievers), and never questioned a single decision I made during pregnancy, labor, delivery, or post-delivery. :) I feel very sorry for Katie Holmes; somehow I just don't think Tom is going to keep his big fat trap shut for the next nine months.

It'll be interesting to see what they name him/her.

i heard a suggestion on the radio....therapy...because he/she is going to need a lot of it!

Maybe she is still a virgin and impregnated herself via the turkey baster method (hey, it worked for Melissa Etheridge).

Maybe they bite down on a wooden stick like the cavewomen of yore did? ;)

I bet Katie Holmes is going to be traumatized after this relationship. Hopefully and kind nurse will allow her the epidural without telling Tom.

That is sad. I hope that they do not follow that rule because (wile I have never had children) that certainly is not what I have heard is good for a child in my psychology classes. Isn't the time when babies and mothers bond most/best directly after birth?

This whole thing is just creepy....:eek:

I expect a ship to come and beam him up some time soon...

You're not the only one! :p

Just saw this on eonline.com:

ON CRUISE CONTROL: People reporting that Tom Cruise fiancée Katie Holmes is dropping out of the drama Shame On You, starring Dennis Quaid, to focus on her pregnancy.

Katie, why oh why are you giving up acting roles? You need them. And Dennis Quaid is so cute. Cuter than Tom? Probably. Could it do more for your career than a baby with Tom? Probably.

I laughed my ass of yesterday when I saw a girl wearing a "SAVE KATIE" T-shirt.

ROTFL
 

There are some comical posts in this thread. :p


Maybe Hubbard Cruise - first name in honor of the man whose ideas brought them together. :rolleyes: I won't be surprised.

Heard something about a website or something that is taking bets on what the name will be. What are the 500-1 odds? GOOSE!!!

not sure if this is posted or not.

Kate is Shame-less
The actress, who recently revealed she is carrying fiance Tom Cruise's baby, has pulled out of the Dennis Quaid drama Shame On You in order to focus on her pregnancy, People magazine reports.


The film, a biopic on country and western swing legend Spade Cooley, had been scheduled to begin shooting in New Orleans within the next month. But the production was pushed back to early 2006 due to Hurricane Katrina. Holmes was set to star as Cooley's wife, Ella Mae.


A publicist for Quaid, who is writing, directing and starring in the film, declined to comment on Holmes' reported exit.


Holmes recently dismissed her longtime rep, Leslie Sloane Zelnick. Per initial reports, Holmes made the move in favor of the flackery skills proffered by Cruise's publicist and sister (publisister?) Lee Ann DeVette. But DeVette said Thursday that Holmes is currently sans spokesperson and therefore no one could confirm the People story.


In any case, DeVette and whomever Holmes decides to hire will have their work cut out for her in the denial and no comment department.


In what has become their signature whirlwind fashion, Holmes, 26, and Cruise, 43, announced they were expecting their first child together earlier this month, just four months after announcing their engagement. The couple has not yet set a wedding date.


With Cruise and Holmes upping their public profile in recent days, tabloids have been all abuzz over the former Dawson's Creek star's very visible bump, prompting speculation into exactly how long she has been in the family way. (She's not saying.)


In terms of just how Holmes got to be in the family way, her aunt has denied rumors that the actress conceived via IVF.


"I can assure you they did it the old fashioned way," Carol Zydorczyk said in a recent magazine interview. (We're not even going to ask how she knows for sure.)


Meanwhile, back home in Ohio, Holmes' father, Martin, is reportedly extremely displeased that his daughter is pregnant without the benefit of first swapping vows, according to Life & Style magazine.


The magazine reports that the strict Catholic scolded the actress upon learning of her pregnancy, before telling Cruise, "You're no good!" The grandfather-to-be also reportedly demanded that the pair wed soon.


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.


Holmes and Cruise have not commented on how they plan to bring their offspring into the world. However, we're thinking Cruise better start practicing his silent couch-jumping routine, just in case.

Not sure if anyone looks at postsecrets.com, but I thought this was interesting.

tom bought katie a sonogram machine so they can monitor the kid on their own. after that, he plans to donate it to some hospital.

Because apparently he thinks that even though he is not a licensed technician he should be able to operate one.

The pic isn't showing up and the link isn't working. :(

Try that one.

i think you girls are linking us to porn because none of the links work.

The one I posted works when I click it. :confused:

WTF? Ok then, just go to www.postsecret.com and scroll down until you find the post card with the picture of Tom and Katie on it.

I see the picture... :confused:

Re: ROTFL
 

No, I'm pretty sure Hubbard Cruise is the name of their spaceship.

so katie is encouraged to labor in silence, using no pain medication(should she need it), but it is okay to zap the baby with sonar, unsupervised, as often as they want? they are insane!

Just came across this and thought I'd share:

http://www.celebworld.org/007katie3.html

Wouldn't it be crazy if she was just using one of those pregnancy "suits" like they use in the movies/TV?

This site reminded me of the one that shows Britney's bust inflating, and deflating, and inflating, and deflating...

I saw that site already and thought it was interesting. May just be the clothes though. How pregnant I looked with my first could really change depending on what I was wearing and how I was standing.
If she is using the body suit thing I am wondering what is going to happen in a few months though ... I mean noone is pregnant for ever, eventually a baby has to be produced. How are they going to magically produce a baby if she is not really pregnant. Unless they are adopting and already have a adoptive parent in mind. Somehow I don't see them slipping out of the limelight so I dunno

Either:

a) Katie will have a very public "miscarriage"

or

b) there's an about-to-be-very-rich pregnant Scientologist holed up in their house somewhere, who will do the "drop and dash."

Maybe they are doing it so that the press won't know how far along she is and then when she actually gives birth they won't be expecting it and they can have some sort of privacy.

Since when is anything in their relationship ever been private?

I find her stomach to be odd as well. As soon as they announced it, she was showing, but it hasn't seemed to grow since, and it's been months.

When is she due?
What about their wedding?

I would like to believe that everything I see on the interweb is true, but how do we know that those pictures actually corresponde to those dates?

Someone probably clipped out pictures of katie and posted them out of sequence with fake dates underneath.

I tend to agree here. I feel like I saw some of those "newer" pictures last fall. I think they are out of sequence but who knows. :rolleyes:

A sex scene is mysteriously missing from Katie's newest film...

http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/news/eo/2...815920000.html


Did Tom have it cut? Hmmm....

They can also do amazing things with Photoshop.

They can. Perhaps some of those photos were taken and edited so that no one would know she was pregnant at the time of publication.

But makes me wonder... what if this is all fake too (going back to the pregnancy suit again.)
