[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It looked like an enormous slab of liver.

Right? Though EM's was purpley.

Now tagless for your comfort.

And how cool is it that the hormone that your body produces when you're scared is a natural coagulant?

Fucking cool, that's how!

Still, last thing you want after passing an 8lb. kid is someone rooting around up there.

Dude, you got fisted.

No shit. Still--it was worth the drugs.

Drugs, kinky sex and roller derby. You are my hero.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

If she roller-derbyed *during* all of that, she would be so awesome that she could kick Wonder Woman's ass.

Mmmm...I'll take that under advisement.

Compassionately intolerant

Yeah, that's just a thing babies do. Most newborns these days are swaddled as soon as they're born, but if you just leave them tummy-to-tummy with the mom they'll work their way up to a breast. It's very cool.

I had NO idea this was even possible, but given that we are mammals, I suppose it should not have been a surprise to me. It frankly left me gobsmacked.

I gave the midwife credit for a lot in terms of making the birth such an amazing experience for both the parents.

eta: The most wonderful she did and said was repeating, "Your body knows what to do" every time anyone was tempted to freak out.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

The c-section may restricted to what's considered elective, but I'm not sure how many of those there are.

So, they're trying to say that a c-section is elective? I've known a few friends who had to fight their doctors NOT to have a c-section.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Dear Heavens, I'm so skimming this convo. Squeamish.
