Packing a bag today... by
Jill
I am packing my bag for the hospital today. It's hard to pack because I am
in week 36, and this bag will probably sit here for 5 weeks. I keep thinking
I will want something that I am packing away. Also I don't want to haul a
bunch of stuff to the hospital- I've been reading bag packing tips both...

How do uncircumcised men get laid? by
karen hill
There is all this talk about the foreskin being a harbinger of disease
with the studies to back it up. Who are these women who sleep with
these uncut guys? Uncut penises are so gross, that if I had not read
the studies, I would assume all uncut guys are chaste STD free
virgins! Frankly, an...

What do you *not* need? by
Donna
A twist on the "what do I need for my baby" threads that have been popping
up lately.
For those who are going into subsequent pregnancies... what did you think
you would need the first time around, that you ended up not using?

Giving birth by
Mark & Ana Jones
Lately I have been thinking about giving birth and became really afraid. I
have never been able to watch it on TV and always thought of it being the
worst horror pain experience ever.
I think it's got to do with the idea of baby going through small opening of
vagina and cervix. Jesus, I still can't...

mini-vent on bf comments by
Kim E.
I am 35 wks pregnant and planning to breastfeed and have told this only
to people who have asked about it. Why do some people insist on making
negative comments about it? I have had only a few people say "that's
great" and more people go on and on about what an inconvenience it is

OT question for those in countries with national health care systems by
Marie
I hope I am wording this correctly...national health care system is
when the health care is "free" but you pay for it with your taxes,
right? (like what is being discussed in the long homebirth thread)
My question is if you have an emergency, a car wreck for example, you
will be seen right away,...

get packages in the mail, then I opened it and saw it was baby related so
that was great too. Till I opened it and discovered a container of formula.

Completely uneventful anatomy scan by
[email protected]
Our baby is a ham. S/he covered her face with both arms, waved,
kicked, danced the can can, and bounced on my bladder the entire time.
It was hilarious. The weirdest thing was feeling him/her move and
watching him/her move at the same time.
The technician said that everything looks normal. And...

TTC a gender question by
Jill
Do most people here believe that the tips for conceiving a certain gender
really do give you at least a much better chance of conceiving that certain
gender? How do you feel about it, it may work, or is bunk? (I.e., a boy is
conceived more closely after ovulation whereas a girl is conceived in...

Sigh. My mom just left my house crying. She showed up (uninvited)with her
