I hate this woman because I am spending ungodly amounts of time pumping to get barely enough milk for my baby. And also, don't want to begrudge someone making a buck but she could get screened and donate her milk to a milk bank for babies who actually really need it.

I am a lawyer-but no worries, my husband is safe- he knows there's only one acceptable use for breast milk!

I am literally pumping right now (for like the millionth time today) and I would straight up stab my husband if he did anything with a drop of my breastmilk other than feed it to the bebe.

When my (now ex) husband and I watched Secretary both of us knew nothing about the movie but had it in our heads that it was a comedy. It totally skewed the experience because I kept thinking "when is this going to get funny?"

Any idiot parent who thinks a chicken pox party is a great idea needs to get a really bad case of shingles. I had an awful case of chicken pox as a child (I was born before the vaccine), as did my brother. We were 4 and 5 at the time. We both got shingles as adults - in our late 30's. The shingles blisters are

It ended up being a happy surprise, baby girl is 9 months old and healthy and happy. But she was indeed a surprise, I struggled with infertility for 3 years before having my older daughter 7 years ago - with donor eggs. My doctor said my eggs were crap. Turns out they were late bloomers. I'm not waiting for lightning

Last year, at 45 my period stopped and I got excited - woohoo menopause! Nope, pregnant.

I like breastfeeding, but pumping is sucking the lifeblood out of me. My baby is 9.5 months old and every month I say to myself "only x more months of pumping." As far as I can tell none of my male work colleagues have had to pump in a rental car in a parking lot before walking in to a meeting or leave a conference

When I was in law school one of my professors was married to a former student, whom he left his first wife for. At a "back to the books" event at the beginning of my third year (at a bar adjacent to campus), he was making out with one of my classmates - in full view of everyone. 20 years later, he's still teaching

I'm a little freaked out because I JUST bought the elephant and that standard one this morning and this pops up. I wasn't even researching them online.

I really love when the anti-vaxxers use the fact that their kid or some kid they know had a vaccine preventable illness and it was "no big deal." Please tell the parents of one of the 20 individuals (mostly infants under 3 months) who died of pertussis in the US in 2012 that pertussis is no big deal. Same with chicken

Pertussis (whooping cough) which is also making a comeback thanks to anti-vaxxers. If you are a woman who may have kids in the next 10 years, just get an MMR vaccine and make sure you stay up to date on TDaP. You can't get the MMR vaccine if you are pregnant and rubella is particularly bad for a fetus (my aunt had it

Spousal privilege doesn't bar you from testifying it only means the state can't compel you to. So if the mother wanted to testify, regardless of whether they were married, she can.

Let me preface by saying I am pro vaccination. BUT, the CDC has not identified patient 0 in this outbreak so there's a good chance it could be an adult. Several adult employees at Disney contracted the measles. I had the vaccine as a child. I had it again when I went to graduate school (my school required it) when I

Ditto, that was the deal with my first kid. Second was scheduled c-section and I had a spinal and even that was nothing.

There was an episode of This American Life with a story like that. Family that had guns, dad had taught all the kids gun safety and kids knew they weren't supposed to touch the gun when parents weren't home. One day their teenage daughter was rehearsing for a play and her character commits suicide. She thought it

Virgin birth is the phrase you are looking for. Immaculate conception refers to the conception of Mary, whom Catholics believe was conceived without original sin.

She tolerates cats too.

Why do people continue to get pets from pet stores and breeders and idiots on Craigslist? If you absolutely must have a particular breed, I guarantee you there's a rescue organization for them. Don't get your heart set on a puppy. They are a pain in the ass and yes, even an old dog can be housebroken and trained if

I would counter that it's a banal point to try and legislate something so clearly decided by precedent. You think the court is going to hear another offensive free speech matter after just ruling on one 4 years ago? Do you think they are just itching to overturn Snyder vs. Phelps, an 8-1 decision? There's a long
