Maria, don’t get angry.You misunderstood what I was saying.I never denied that she looks like crap.My point was she was not left behind and abandoned.And that she is in the best of care that they can possibly be in.And I don’t sympathize with her at all.I’m sorry, maybe i’m just jaded or having a bad day.I work at a shelter for pregnant women.They come battered, young, homeless, addicted etc.They deserve my sympathy.And rightly so.Far more than Katie Holmes.

Okay, I think that’s cute. It makes her more real. I can relate because I’ve had some embarrassing moments with the nursing bra.

I’m glad Katie is breastfeeding. Good for her, and her baby!

Failisse: You don’t sympathize with her because she’s rich???
Money can’t solve all problems. No matter how much money she has, she will still be tired and exhausted. No matter your station, bringing a baby into this world is hard work.
It always irks me when people assume that celebrities HAVE to look great just because they have nannies and can afford stylists.

Trishka, the girl may look beat, but she is anything but alone.Tom Cruise may be weird, but I am sure that they have “hired help”.Trust me,if Gwyneth and Liv have nanny’s etc. (even though they are mostly always pictured without them)Katie and Tom have some sort of system as well.

Oh, i didn’t mean she was completely alone by herself with the baby, I mean she was the only parent there with the baby… I’m sure she had to get up everytime the baby was hungry, etc etc. Since she is breastfeeding, it’s not like she has a nanny to turn to and say “here it’s your turn to breast feed” Unless them scientologists have someone like that.

I still look like that, 20 months later. hahaha.

And she’s had a baby, she is not carrying the world on her back.She is rich, and has more sources at her fingertips than most mums.So,I don’t feel bad for her at all.Those feelings go to single and young mums.

And I agree with the poster who said that Tom can’t win either way (if he chooses to stay home or to work and promote his new film).

She looks exhausted, poor thing. Tom better take care of Suri for a while and let her get some rest!

I think BOTH she and Tom look absolutely exhausted. but Tom’s just wearing sunglasses to hide it. I mean, come on. who wears sunglasses at NIGHT?

it’s too bad the whole world has to see her nursing bra, but it makes her more human! i think she looks terrfic, incredible and every glowing adjective under the sun, for just having had a baby two weeks ago!

Even with the constant help of my mom and my husband, I still looked like complete crap until my son was about 6 weeks old and the ‘new parent shock’ started to wear off. It’s normal, and I don’t think she looks that bad. Breastfeeding is hard work and Tom can’t help her with that, so I’m sure she has good reason for looking so tired.

I think that for a new mum of a 2 1/2 week old she looks great. How did we all look after our babies were born?
