Gwyneth Paltrow had a baby boy. - Page 2

didn't she have a cestion with apple? and then they just planned another? thats what i read

[Girl Named Sandoz]

Gwyneth planned a home birth with Apple but had a c-section after 30 hours of labour.

She had a c-section with Moses because she was worried of going through the same traumatic experience as with Apple only for it to end in a c-section again.

I hope she left her son intact. I'm German (RIC is unheard of in Germany, no doctor will perform a circ without a medical indication), and my husband is British (31 years old) and intact, of course. Here is our discussion on circumcision when I was pregnant with my son.

Me: Did you know that in the US many people circumcize their baby boys?
DH: What!? What do you mean, circumsize?
Me: They operate on the penis and cut off the foreskin.
DH:
Pause while DH has a pained expression on his face and is visibly thinking.
DH: WHY would they do that?!?
Me: They think it is cleaner/ looks better.
DH: (rolling eyes) [with emphasis] There is no way on earth I would let anyone do THAT to my son!
Pause.
DH: Besides, that's the best part [of the penis].
DH visibly flinches at the thought of anyone cutting off "the best part".

So... I can't imagine that Chris would agree to a circumcision. Mostly likely, he's intact, grew up unfamiliar with the concept of RIC and thinks it's sad/ ridiculous/ unnecessary.

I bet he's intact.

But not Rocco...you know, the Kabbalah thing...

this is so funny. I am from Chile, my dh is too (ofcourse, intact) and he was like : when I told him what circumcision was. He said "um, I think we'll leave his penis where it is"

Hmm, where did you read that.. I'm curious. From the things that I heard (can't always believe what we hear, especially abotu celebs but..) I have been under the impression that Apple was a long, long birth but came vaginally and that she opted for a c/s with Moses because Apple's birth was so hard. Which makes me kinda wonder cuz I thought she was more of an AP type mama. Who knows. I hope baby Moses is intact! You would think he would be since his daddy is brit, ya know?
