“Like lots of baby boomers, I was brought up on archaic anthropomorphism. Upstanding Christian dogs. Rabbits with family values.

“I felt so proud to be having a baby and so excited. And I felt closer to other women - to my sisters, to my mom. I felt empowered, like, 'I've given birth. I did it! There's nothing I can't handle.' I've really enjoyed this time that I have taken to be with Suri, as well as the challenges of the first couple of months: feeding and pumping, learning to decipher what each cry means - is she hungry? Is she tired? Does she need a fresh diaper? - and figuring out how to really help her.” NeedsFirstsWellsMeanDoeI CanHelpingGivenFeltChallengesTakenCryBabyMomMonthsProudBirthCoupleTiredExcitedMy MomHungryHandleEnjoyedMy SisterFeedingEmpoweredDiapersHaving A BabyDecipher Author:Katie Holmes
