I must be the worst mother on MKP by
Mum of Two
Everyone here is so perfect! It seems you all wear your babies constantly,
co-sleep with them when you aren't wearing them, rock them for hours on end
while they scream, and manage all this even with a dozen other children
besides and a successful career. Those of you who don't have a career...

Chris
My stepdaughter decided to get pregnant again. The first pregnancy did not
come to term. She will be 18 next month. Her mother prefers to have her

time around that I refused to allow a second family to live here....

Why does this bother me? (re - breastfeeding) by
Sophie
Mini-vent coming on -
As a person who did not/does not breastfeed, why does it bother me when
people say breastfeeding in public is "inappropriate" - and particularly
it's inappropriate in a **restaurant**?? Ugh! I can't imagine how it makes
breastfeeders feel. It's absolutely insane. First of...

They do not use pain killer because of swelling, is there something that the
doc can use that will not swell. I heard of a cream that they can put on to
minimize pain.
Also, why is it best practice to NOT do circumcision. I...

reasons I've heard for not breastfeeding by
Shena Delian O'Brien
The mind boggles. I understand choosing not to breastfeed if you don't
have proper supply and can't get it, if your baby isn't thriving, or you
have to take medications to live which would go through the breastmilk
and harm the baby, etc... but some of the reasons I've heard lately just

Why do parents keep doing this? by
Lyle Benson
I'm a teen-ager and since the moment I found out what happened to me I
felt angry about it. Once I found what goes on during the procedure
and what is lost, I felt sick.
I know I was robbed of something special, and I'll never know what sex
is really supposed to feel like.
Why the hell do parents...

Tough decision - Elective C or not ? by
paul williams
Wifes now 36 weeks but baby is measuring up to 40 weeks already so it
looks very large.
Consultant has given us the choice :-
1. Elective C-section at 39 weeks.
2. Induce at 40 weeks.
Option 1 seems OK but consultant highlighted the risks involved with
any C-section.

Preparing sibling for birth process? by
Akuvikate
We'd like to have the option of having the Bug (4.5 y/o) present at
the birth when the little dude is born. My mother, who is very
involved in her life, would be at the hospital as the designated Bug
manager so that they can go in and out of the room as seems
appropriate. But of course I wouldn't...

reputable homebirth info/stats needed by
Plissken
I would love to have a homebirth but my husband is not at all keen. I am
wondering if anyone out there knows of a reputable website or a good book
that my husband could read to put his mind at ease. I am going to ask my
midwife this week as well but thought I would try here too.
TIA

A woman who lives just outside of my town recently had a home birth and lost
her baby. I feel so sad for her but unfortunately she made some really bad
decisions.
She had a c-section with her first pregnancy and her Doc informed her that
this second baby was breech. For some reason she was...

Are chiropractors physicians? by
Todd Gastaldo
Currently, Americas MDs are NOT behaving as physicians.
Americas MDs are behaving as CRIMINALS, senselessly closing birth canals and
gruesomely manipulating most babies' spines - among other obvious crimes...
See Johns Hopkins breast/vagina/penis power! (How America can INSTANTLY save
$200...
