OlderMiranda Kerr Makes Anti-Epidural Comments
Miranda Kerr steps out in a fun, floral sundress while strolling the sidewalks on Wednesday (July 11) in New York City.
The 29-year-old Aussie model recently came under fire from mothers around the world for comments she made about epidurals.
Miranda told Harper’s Bazaar UK about watching videos of babies born without an epidural and seeing the baby go straight for the mother’s breast after coming out.
“Then they showed ones [babies] right after the epidural, and that didn’t happen,” Miranda said. “The baby was a little bit drugged up, and I was like, ‘Well I don’t want that.’ I wanted to give him the best possible start in life I could.”

Bullsh!t Miranda! I had and epidural and my baby breastfed right after birth with no problem and very alert. Many studies have been done on the use of epi without any consequence. Morphine drip does so keep your mouth shut and take your pretty picture. That’s what you get paid to do.
well good for her ! Is that really necessary that she comments everything ? Especially that kind of subject ?
Don’t care. This pumpkinhead, Gisele-wannbe is really not important.
I get pretty tired of women these days who think they are a superwoman just because they didn’t get an epidural. My 3 babies were perfect and i had an epidural for all 3. Forgive me if i didnt want to be in a tremendous amount of pain. Women gave birth to their children without any meds for centuries so it’s nothing new.
She’s not telling anyone how to have a baby – she’s telling you about her choice and why she made it. I don’t see her starting a foundation or campaign to stop epidurals! She’s free to do what she wants with her body – just like other mothers are free to do what they want!
she’s annoying…
Nobody is EVER going to agree when it comes to parenting.
Nobody cares what you think, air-headed Miranda. Shut the hell up!
so she knows that every single baby will end up “drugged up” if you get an epi? lol what a freaking genious!
ITS HER PERSONAL OPINION PEOPLE. CHILL
She’s STILL blathering on a year after giving birth, in the tone of someone who is the only woman ever to give birth.
Not only is she a narcissist, but no one cares what she thinks.
Oh, just, no. I don’t care what she’s preaching about, epidurals, skin care, how to get a great ass, I don’t care, I just don’t need to hear what she thinks about it all the freakin time.
Oh jeez, she likes to mouth off about everything doesn’t she. I respect she has an opinion but I don’t need to hear it. Also, how is her walking between a car and a building interesting? For someones who’s main talent seems to be wearing lingerie, squeezing out a baby she sure does seem to get a lot of column inches.
@lexy hates bilson:
I agree. She isn’t putting others down. She is merely giving an opinion. Everyone is entitled to that. We do have free speach. And calling her names is a bit over the top for expressing it.
Gah, if she were half as smart as she thinks she is she would know an epidural does not pass through the placenta therefore does not effect the baby. There are other pain medications given intravenously that do pass the placenta but not an epidural. All an epidural does is allow a woman to have a pain free birth.
I hate when stupid people talk.
I’ll respect her opinion when she has been in a very painful labor for 30 hours. Then we will talk about whether she wants to continue or have an epidural.
I wish she and gisele would shut up.
Great! As if the opinion of some brainless, fame-thirsty, average model was important at all. Oh Please!
@SHopping Diva: Then that would mean she would never open her mouth? Oh dear oh dear – we can’t have that! Not from she who knows it all, and can you imagine poor Orlando and Flynn dealing with hearing that 24/7? He ought to get a purple heart.
Can someone tell me who she is, I’m too lazy to google her!
The only models I know are Adriana and Gisele…and the models from the 90s of course.
She thinks she’s all that ever since she got pregnant/married to Orlando Bloom. So tired of her….
JJ posts a lot about nobodies these days. Miranda is not going to happen
Oh just ignore this bimbo. She is only trying to get attention & be talked about. If everyone would ignore her maybe she will go away. She & her lame – o husband.
She couldn’t stand seeing Alessandra getting some attention here. she just had to call the paps like it’s some kind of emergency…Hi Miranda, nobody cares. Stop making a fool of yourself
Ugh. These women who think they’re better than everyone else because they do a “natural” childbirth. Puh-leeze. The technology to make childbirth a more comfortable process is one the single greatest medical advances in history. You are not a better mother, or a stronger woman, if you opt out. IMO, you’re just an idiot. I used to be indifferent about Miranda. Now I just think she flat-out sucks.
