Hollywood star Jennifer Lopez has scrapped plans to have a Scientology 'silent birth' according to reports. Scientologists are forbidden from using painkillers during labor - or from even making an noise at all.
J-Lo reportedly had considered a Scientology birth because her father David and close friend and actress Leah Remini both belong to the wacky religion.
According to US magazine The Enquirer singer underwent special 'purification' lessons to prepare her for a silent birth.
A source told the tabloid: "Jennifer made the decision because she's high risk at her age.
"She wanted to leave it in the hands of her doctors whether she should receive painkillers and other drugs during delivery.
J-Lo and her husband Mark Anthony are both Catholic and are now opting for a more traditional birth.
The star has never confirmed she is expecting twins but at a recent baby shower at the Gramercy Park Hotel in New York, guests bought both blue and pink gifts sparking rumors she is due to have both a girl and a boy.
