Dear Rachel Griffiths, That's No Way To Hold A Baby!
Australian wacktress Rachel Griffiths needs to stop following Octo-Mom's guide to parenting!
The Brothers & Sisters star was spotted on Monday taking her newborn, Clementine Grace, to the Encino Medcal Center in Encino, California.
Griffiths took her month-old daughter in for a checkup, but someone should be checking on Rachel.
Aren't you supposed to support your newborn's head?
And that just doesn't seam to be the best way to carry a child either.
You're holding onto your baby, not a bag of groceries!

Your First Glimpse Of Kruger!!!
Ciara Shows Off New 'Do
Perez stop talk about stuff u have no idea about! That is perfectly fine & was my prefered way to 'burp' my baby. Baby is comfortable & supported whilst having room to test out their little muscles….you win Perez u'r comments got me talking bout it ey?
Re: PixieCullen – Uumm…She's 41 years old…? Whats ya point?
ewww her hands are like yellow
and i think she would know perez, she s a mother of like 3!! after all.
I'm not a mother, so I wouldn't know the 'correct' way, however you got to admit it it looks effy.
I am a nurse in a neo-natal ward, and I assure you that is a perfectly acceptable way to hold an infant(especially one with gas/colic)…everything about this posture is physically supportive.
Get your facts before you call someone a bad parent.
perez !!! your comments can b more destructive than you sometimes realize ! loads of rubbish! she holds her baby perfectly! how dare you !!
sometimes you go to far
i've had five babies with the misses………the nurse showed us with the first one that is one of the most secure and comfy ways to hold the kid…….she is a practiced mum………..someone homlicious like you hasnt learned that yet…….
Perez, that is the correct way to hold a baby, theres more than one, and wtf is up with her hands??
God Mario, you are such a bitch lately. Why do you insist on talking smack on something you know nothing about.
That's how people hold babies in Australia
its fine to hold a baby this way. the some babies love being on their belly, and this position is really safe, just as safe as a baby being face up.
Perez - when you and your husband collect your children from the surrogate, (and we know this day will come) you will be very glad to have learned how to hold a baby from the fantastic Rachel Griffiths. This position is the only way to help a baby SCREAMING IN PAIN with colic.
Who's the baby momma going to be? Have you a lovely lesbian already lined up? Are you going to star f*$& and use SJP's surrogate or has Lady Gaga agreed?
Keep calling out the crap but leave the good guys alone to get on with their lives.
that the footbal hold DUMASS and NEWBORNS LOVE IT.
its like being in a swing,
YOu are SO STUPID judgmental MEAN and Ignorant.
The baby's fine like that!
So what if she drops it?
She looks like a guy
there is a reason why men can't give birth.. they are idiots..Perez.. more celeb info less parenting advice you fool.
and you are a fuck stick..
That's the pefect way!!!
She looks like a man.
Ever held a baby perez?
oh my gosh you are clueless Perez……
Perez, It's obvious u don't have kids. That's a great way to carry a baby if they r having gas pains. Although, I normally would carry baby with head in not out.
PEREZ-STICK TO BLOGGING-LEAVE THE REAL IMPORTANT ISSUES TO US. Obviously you know nothing about babies KJBrocks is right it does help with gas. I think SHE knows what shes doing.
The first kid your freaked about everything-by the third-its a breeze-no worries.
Perez…usually I support your freedom of speech (although most times you take it too far) but this is a legitimate way to hold an infant. You make yourself look bad when you dont do your research. Shame on you…
ARE YOU AN IDIOT, PEREZ?
.

That is a totally acceptable way to hold a newborn - the head IS getting support.
.

My son loved being held like that…perfectly safe!
It's called the sleeping leopard or something like that. They do show this in antenatal classes as a perfectly legitimate way of holding a baby.
as many others have commented, it is okay to hold the baby that way… however - babies aren't supposed to be out in the sun!! I know it was probably only for a minute or two, but still … normally people carry babies that size in ther carseats so they aren't exposed to the sun…
Dear Perez, until you have children of your own please don't try to judge people too much on parenting. eg. still drinking out of bottle at a certain age(suri), being carried instead of walking(violet) and now how to carry a child. Little babies love to be carried like this, it really calms them. She looks like she perfectly capable of holding her head up. Anyway, parenting is not as straightforward as you would hope and most mothers do their absolute best in caring for their children.
Sheesh so many people are so harsh. I have two boys myself and before I had them if I saw a picture like that I would be kinda squeemish about it. Being a mom I know better now. Babies balance out different than you would think. They arent as breakable as I thought..No where near as breakable - lol -
this is her THIRD child perez!!!
Thats how you hold a baby when they have gas.. stop being so hard on parents when you arent one yourself!
The baby is fine….but her hands are scary!
the baby looks fine like that! jesus, give the lady a break
WHAT THE HELL WOULD YOU KNOW ABOUT HOW TO HOLD A BABY??? It's perfectly fine to hold a baby that way~it helps with gas. Why don't you stick with what you know Perez ~ Gossip!
Um, yeah, that's actually a very responsible way to hold a baby. What the hell do you know about raising kids?
Awwww…….that poor baby!!! She is carrying her like she's nothing but a sack of taters!!!!! That's so horrible!!!
While that is fine, it still looks like she's going to bonk his head into that mirror.
OHHH, BECAUSE NOW YOUR ALSO AN EXPERT ON PARENTING AND BABIES EVEN THOUGH YOU DON'T HAVE ONE AND HAVE PROBABLY NEVER EVEN HELD ONE? GREAAAT! SOMETHING ELSE TO DETEST YOU FOR. AND THIS IS NOT GOING TO HURT HER BABY, MAYBE IT JUST ATE AND NEEDED TO SPIT UP.
perez you are a douche. obviously you don't (and never will) have kids. this is a fine and natural way to carry a baby. they love it and their head is supported fine. go pet your flea-bag dog.
ONCE again you have no clue what you are talking about Perez.
The baby survives getting pushed out of a small vagina, belive me, it will survive getting hold like that. And its totaly normal to hold a baby like that!
Perez, you're an idiot. That's a very good way to hold a small infant. It's very supported and comfortable for both parent and baby. The baby's tummy is held firmly (which feels good and safe for the baby). The hold also helps bring up air from the infant's tummy so they can burp.
This is a very normal way to hold a newborn .. especially if they are gassy, it puts pressure on their stomachs and allows them to feel better !! Obviously Perez, you haven't been around babies much LOL
Why are her hands so yellow in the second picture ??
Re: zaniac01 – LOL it looks like your choking the baby when you burp them like that .. but it is my favorite way to burp a baby, and usually works wonders all the time. It just looks so funny when they are held like that lol
That's the most comfortable way to hold a baby, and they love it. Kept all of mine from being fussy.
Dumbass that is a very effective way to hold a baby especially a baby who has gas.
Yep, this is normal, very plain and normal.
no..no.
You can't hold a young baby like that :O
the baby's fine dumb ass…but look at her hands??!?!?!?! giant yellow monters!!!
the way she's holding her baby is fine. I'm a nicu nurse and although i can hold most of my babies in the palm of one of my hands, lots of us hold the babies like this when we are moving them or changing their sheets, bathing, weighing, etc. the baby's head is fine….the head needs support from falling backwards and sideways, which obviously in this pic it is not doing! if anything she's helping her kiddo out because holding the baby on her tummy or actually doing any kind of "tummy time" helps the baby gain strength and control in its neck muscles…
forget about the baby,whats up with her big ole ugly man hands? I thought Madonnas and SJP's were bad,but I think we have new contender!!
im a mom. And that is one correct way to hold a baby, u should know more about parenting if u are going to make a comment.
u r an idiot! have you had a baby????? every mom in the universe has held their baby like that!
haha - i suppose you're an expert on how to care for an infant. that baby (and it's head) are perfectly secure. in fact, i'm having trouble thinking of a safer hold…since this is how nfl players hold onto a ball while getting the sh!t kocked out of them.
Re: dogtits – marry me.
OMG sweet jesus THE LORD HAVE MERCY
No wonder you got your ass kicked. She is fine holding the baby like that.
What are you talking about? Babies love to be held like that. It's a classic position and it's really comfortable to them.
ug… the baby is fine
MAN FACE AND MAN HANDS! PUKE!!!!!!!
thats called the "magic baby hold" supposedly, they like it cause the feel safe and secure…
See I told you people he is retarded.
Re: Craic Head – Do you have a child?
That's a woman? I thought it was John Cameron Mitchell from Hedwig and the Angry Inch. That is no way to hold and WALK WITH a baby, people. And Perez: "seam"? You really need to get an editor, or at least use spell/grammar check.
Pretty sure I held my son like that to get him to go to sleep & it worked it is completly safe as long as you have a safe hold on the child and are not swinging them around like a sack.
My mom works as a nurse for early born children, and she says it's totally okay to carry a baby like this. Babies have different likes and dislikes how to carry them, it's very personal and individual.
I hate people who don't have kids telling parents what to do and how. It's very arrogant and dispensable!
