BF is one year to the day younger than his sister. So his mom was pregnant with a three-month-old. Yikes.

Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
I had a teacher that not only required them, but didn't allow you to veer from them.
I'd have shot her. Seriously. This is why my father - a world-class musician - never allowed me near formal musical education; he said the imposition of too much artificial structure on individual creativity had rotted more good musical brains than opium ever had.
Plei, do you think she'll demand to be called Lily at some point? Or even Lilah?

If I only had a brain...
It happens a lot, Robin. People don't realize that you can be fertile almost immediately after childbirth. I've heard OBs say that they routinely see women at the 6-week checkup who are already pregnant again.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Well, it would be Lilly, wouldn't it? Hey, like Lilly Kane!

Am I a horrid mommy for putting Em on her tummy to sleep?? It's the only way to get her back to sleep in the middle of the night. I must have made Joe check her breathing 4 times in a half hour this morning.

Can she roll over on her own yet, Aimee? That's when our pede said it was OK.

No matter how often I put mine on their backs, as soon as they could, they rolled to their fronts and slept like rocks. They were a lot less fussy that way.

Heh. t TMI If they'd had MY childbirth experience, they wouldn't have been. Things just weren't quite, um, healed enough that soon. t /TMI
We're thinking of waiting till 2008 or so, even though I'll be 37 then. Combination of wanting to buy a house, give me time to write a few more novels and hopefully sell one, give me time to get in better shape, and I'm just not ready to face labor again anytime soon. I've never been so strongly tempted to slap DH's grandmother as when she said at Christmas that none of her labors were over 12 hours, and isn't it wonderful how you forget about the pain as soon as you have that wonderful baby in your arms? Well, Grandma, maybe you did. I adore Annabel, but I still remember labor all too clearly.

I wonder about women like that. I think there must be something broken somewhere.
