It hurts because it’s true. 

Oh, sorry! But congratulations on being a responsible adult who maintains useful Google docs. 

True, but as mark Cuban as pointed out, most lottery winners do not save the money or invest conservatively. 

Yes— post-birth. With kid #1 they automatically gave me Senna, a laxative, along with my Tylenol. They sent me home with a prescription as well. With kid #2 they didn’t, so I don’t know if it’s standard or not. (It is true that the first poop is semi-terrifying because your nerves will be kinda scrambled after birth…

Diet Dr Pepper is far superior to Dr Pepper Ten. Fight me.

They were half right-- it also wasn’t for men. 

Having a baby is like being in a car wreck. And there’s no real way to perfectly plan for a car wreck. (I’m so cheery today!) The best tip I can give you is to be very vocal about how you feel and keep pushing your doctors for solutions, don’t feel like you need to tough it out or assume it’s normal.

Oh god, the night sweats. I would be absolutely drenched every night for weeks. 

There’s talking about it, and then there’s TALKING about it. Plus I think pregnant women are so focused on the actual event that they don’t spend much time planning for their own recovery. (Which honestly, is hard to plan for anyway.)

First, steal every supply in your room. You’re paying for it, make sure you take every Tucks pad, diaper, squirt bottle, baby diaper, etc.

I love her and I hope that she is happy with her life and career, because I think she has been tragically underutilized (on SNL and eslewhere). 

Poor guys leave their relationships for younger women too— I think the rich guys just have better options. 

Every school had that guy. 

I think if we were having an in-person discussion, we’d realize that we mostly agree. I rarely use a stroller with any of my kids, but it never occurred to me to question those who do. I think strollers are environment-specific. Disney is a good example. 

I don’t have a 5 year old so no one is talking behind my back (about this at least). Worrying about what other parents say about my choices in general is not a healthy exercise.

Another commenter shared that their child has a heart condition and therefore uses a stroller often. Let’s assume the best/kindest of others— instead of calling a parent a weirdo for using a stroller, maybe they have a very good reason that you know nothing about. 

Please, the extra tax revenue would go to more corporate tax breaks.

I can’t blame them, I don’t want to be around a bunch of Americans either. 

No first-hand experience but the local natural pet store tried to sell me some for my cat. Apparently it’s cheaper there than what they sell for humans?

We get it Canada, you’re better than the US in every way. No need to rub it in.
