Why coffee is better then women by
coffee waxwing
WHY COFFEE IS BETTER THAN WOMEN
1. You don't have to put cream in your coffee to make it taste good.
2. Coffee doesn't complain when you put whipped cream in it.
3. A cup of coffee looks good in the morning.
4. You won't fall asleep after a cup of coffee.
5. You can always warm coffee up.
6. ...

Erika or whoever-Vitamin K question by
Donna Metler
I've been trying to put together my birth plan, and one thing which keeps
coming up is administration of vitamin K to newborns, especially preemies,
when the mother has been on aspirin therapy or anticonvulsants (both of
which I am currently on) since both are vitamin K antagonists. However,...

What order should I do this? by
Beach mum
I know I'm planning waaaay too far in advance but here's the problem. My
first labor was 7 hours from first twinge to baby, so I'm thinking that this
one is going to go rapid speed. My Mum's labor was an hour longer than mine
the first time and 1.5 hours the second time (for reference).
Assuming...

Cord blood ? by
Kevin
Hi all,
It might be a little late now given that we're in week 35 but I think it's
still an option.
Are there any good resources online on Cord blood banks or any government
standards etc. in that area? I have looked at a couple of places - Viacord
and Cord Blood Registry but still am not sure...

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...

MY EXCELLENT IDEA : )
I think Amy was saying that, rather than using a side-lying support device,
she would rather have a birth support person hold up her leg in a side-lying
position...
Cathy Weeks noted:

Vent: I don't think I want to do this again.. by
Jenrose
I had this idea that I really wanted 3 kids, and was bummed that dh only
wanted one more.

But I've decided I really don't *like* being pregnant. If I could skip to
the labor and birth part, that would be lovely. But pregnancy *sucks* raw
eggs for me. I'm tired all the time. At 19 weeks,...

Hey, Leslie -- how did you end up getting rid of your calf cramps (or did
you?)? I just had a horrible one this morning -- I think I scared DH with
my sudden burst of obsenities... Of course, he progressed very rapidly
