I had all good intentions of breastfeeding for a year, but it ended up not working, and the attempt was an ordeal. I'm not sure what I'll do if we have another kid. I know it's best...and yet Annabel is a fine specimen of a child, and I don't feel like enduring another ordeal if I can help it.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Nursing was the one thing that I did right away and well. Em latched on like a little monkey and suckled away to her heart's delight. I quit when she (watch those eyes Kalshane) stretched my nipple out 6 feet with her gums.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

This makes me laugh. I realized I've been told that (or "cover your ears" for face-space) numerous times in the last year.
Where are all the other menfolk around here, anyway?

Oh, they pop in and out occasionally. D. Gris was around for a while, but haven't seen him here lately.

The babies have invaded here, too! Babies everywhere!
Sorry, but there's been a cranky baby here at work and people just giving it "Oh, look, a baby, how adorable!" looks. I'm working here, people! The day care is the building next door!
You'd think these people had never seen a baby before. My county has a birth rate comparable to Bangladesh, for god's sake! Really, it does.

It is a pretty estrogen-heavy thread, isn't it? Hadn't really occurred to me before.

What's VBAC? Do I even want to know?

Vaginal birth after caesarean.
When Cs when done the old-fashioned vertical incision way, you had to have Cs thereafter, for fear of rupture, etc. Now, most of the time, you can go the other route, if you choose.
