The obstetrician who delivered the twins, Dr. Michel Sussmann, told The Associated Press that the actress and her partner Brad Pitt “were talking, they were together” during the birth of their twins. “It was an epidural, so [Angelina] was awake and speaking and laughing. They were happy.”
As for who cut the cord? Brad the dad, of course! “He was perfectly calm, totally determined, very pleased to be at the birth of his children, very moved and very emotional,” said the kind doctor.
No word on when the newborns will leave the hospital. “She will stay for a few days. You know, in Europe it isn’t like in the United States, where the patients go home after three days. They will stay a bit longer until everything is okay.”
And now we await the pics….

An epidural? Ok. It was a c-section.
i do not need to see these papers?
ABSURD, WTF?

what cheap looking documents. So much for “Universal Healthcare”

I saw pictures of the rooms and the bed alone was from the 1900s.

Too right, my friend. Who gives a shit about infant mortality rates and life expectancy? Let’s talk turkey. Let’s talk *stationery*. I only pray that the twins’ health has not been irrevocably compromised.
I think that’s terrible that they are getting their hands on these documents!! Is nothing private! That’s definately Brad’s signature there though…I’ve seen it before. I think it’s a great idea for the mother to stay longer and have a rest, especially after delivering twins! Celebrity or not, epidural or no epidural, she will be worn out.
Stephi, that is the mayor and brad pitt’s signature. the mayor flashed the papers to the cameras today outside of the hospital during a press conference. LoL He looked like he was loving the attention.
snipe– I lol’d :o).
I hope they will sell the twins pictures to give the money for charity.
I LOVE THEM

Why are stupid people posting here? Angelina has a French Doctor, and the hospital is very modern!!! What are you talking about?
And the documents look cheap?? What an idiot? Do you want it encrusted with diamonds?
I was in the hospital for only 2 days after having my son. I certainly could have used a couple more days!
Entire article at link. Sorry In Touch, Star Magazine, US Weekly, ET. Better luck next time.
Now That Angelina Jolie Has Given Birth, Who Are the Winners and Losers of Her Pregnancy Saga?
Counting the bodies
The entertainment press is already fighting with each other over who got the story right. Bauer’s In Touch, which has devoted what seems like every other cover to another Brangelina headline, is claiming the exclusive, being the first to report the news accurately ahead of any other news outlet. That In Touch’s website first reported Jolie gave birth to “twin girls,†then recanted that part of the story, might be of material interest to on-lookers. The magazine, however, will point out that six months ago it reported Jolie was pregnant with both a boy and a girl. (Previously, Star and OK! had reported Jolie was carrying two girls.)
After In Touch posted its report online, Us Weekly quickly “me too’d†with a “confirmation†that Jolie had given birth with its own website article. Then Extra, which had also posted online with the news, recanted its report, leading Us to also pull its story.
It wasn’t long before People posted the “exclusive†news on its website, though its source was Jolie’s doc, Michael Sussmann, who released a statement to the press at large, not just People. So its “exclusive†news wasn’t so much exclusive as it was simply stamped that way.
But once People pushed the story, the other hangers on followed suit; Us and Extra had their stories back online thereafter.
