I have a strong visual memory of looking at Franny's after she was born. It was lying on steel tray, just lying there.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Now that doesn't make me go ew. Or, I don't think it would, never having been in that situation. But, that's a place where I'd expect to see it.
Don't highlight this unless you want to share the visual of which I wrote in my last post:
On top of a pizza crust, on the other hand... ack. Placenta pizza. Being shared among a group of, I'm gonna say very close, friends. Seriously?
I'm not all that sensitive really, but that put me off of my feed for a while.

Well, I'm sensitive. So I'm just going to avoid all that whitefont, and talk about something else. Picture me in the corner, both hands over my ears, mumbling to myself.
More promo thoughts:
I'm surprised Melanie's Wendy Patrakas isn't bugging me yet (I know, based on all of 30 seconds). I found the "ginormous misunderstanding" line cute, despite it reminding me somewhat of early Fred. Who I kinda couldn't stand. Although I have liked Amy in non-Fred roles.

Jen, that's so absurd it made me laugh.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
And here I thought 'ffista moms would be big old placenta eaters. I should ask my home-schooling, home-birthing, two-year-old-nursing, non-circumcizing sister if she ate it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Oddly, I find the whitefont totally unsquicky. I think because just yesterday I cracked a joke about placenta-helper at breakfast, so what do I know about taste and appropriate times to joke. Though I still blame Sara for freaking me out over the placenta as disposable organs I'm growing.
Monique, from what I've seen, I can understand your fear of Wendy as being Fred-like. To me she is, and isn't. From the only bit I've seen, she's simultaneous as fragile seeing, but less fey.

Kat, I'm glad you spoiled us. I love all the baby spoilers we're getting around here, lately.
The rest of you? You can just go back to awkward conversations and whatever, 'cause y'all are gross.

Gender spoilers are fun because there's virtually no bad news. I mean, it doesn't really matter what the gender is: it's all exciting.

What is even happening?
Yes! And you covered all the bases in your double gestation, so even the people who were rooting for a particular model baby walk away feeling like their team won a point.
How many weeks along are you, now?
