Typically it’s after the rehearsal and in my experience is kind of a thank you to close friends and a little something extra for out of town guests.

Okay everyone focuses on “viable,” but not a lot of people (other than neonatologists) really talk about what viability looks like. Are there amazing micropreemie stories? Sure. But that’s not the majority of cases. Currently with micropreemies you can decide whether or not you want live saving interventions or…

What happens in places that have these restrictions is that doctors and hospitals are so afraid of prosecution they don’t do procedures they’re technically permitted to do and women end up paying the price.

I’m sorry for your sister’s experience in Florida. I’m not sure how it will be in the future, but right now even in Ohio you can elect a D&C for a miscarriage.

Or as our president elect suggested you just go to another state. (I hate everyone and everything)

My mom has been Grandma to all her grandchildren just like her mom before her. Once my oldest nephew was born my grandma became G.G. (for Great Grandma).

Buses fly down our 25 mph street and over the speed humps and when residents complain it’s definitely shrugged off.

All my Thanksgiving pie recipes are hers.

Allow? Require.

YOU GUYS banana salad is an actual thing. My dad ordered it at an actual restaurant recently.

I had an abortion when my twins were 9 months old, because I didn’t think I could be a good mom to them while pregnant with the probability of another complicated pregnancy. I’ve pretty much only felt relief, but my kids had a lot of medical needs their first two years and my husband had a heart attack almost 5 months…

Every time I start feeling sort of okay-ish again something happens that knocks me back down and I can’t breathe again. This Bannon thing is NOT OKAY. It doesn’t help that I just watched a preview for The Man in the High Tower.

One time years ago I had beer and condoms and a checkout person asked about my weekend. We both laughed.

An older British woman works in a small market by my office and this is here to a T. She is absolutely my favorite.

I don’t socialize as much with my non-kid friends, but I also don’t socialize with other parents. Most of my friends with kids had preteens when mine were born and mine were medically fragile, so we had to shut ourselves away for pretty much 2 years. I think sometimes some of my non-kid friends are waiting for an…

My toddlers still use their boppy pillows. They’re perfect for lounging while taking in all the garbage tv we let them watch.

Yesterday I caught one of my toddlers trying to use it on himself when he was all snotty.

I didn’t realize my birth control was the reason I couldn’t get out of bed a week out of every month until I stopped taking it. I was seriously nonfunctional.

Going back to primaries . . . remember when Howard Dean got supper excited?

I walked into our local children’s hospital this week and saw/overheard a man who looked to be in his 50s ranting at the information desk about “Orientals.”
