My thought exactly. Midwives are there to assist with birthing, NOT to provide longterm medical advice or care. A noble profession for sure, but definitely not a pediatrician.

It’s weird. It’s also weird that a CPM would feel like they could offer advice on a medical situation with a baby. I have a lot of feels about CPMs attending birth but I have known some lovely ones and they would have directed mom and dad to take the baby in rather than follow an at home remedy. Considering that they…

I’m not saying that any of this is justified. If the child was so sick, she needs to be in the hospital. But she’s not... so?

But the person who attended the birth has a doctorate and is a licensed counselor. She is a certified professional midwife (CPM) which means she is *not* a medical professional who was trained…

I’m a black pediatrician and something signficant is missing from this story. The reasons why black families choose midwives and home births are unfortunate and justified by how they are treated. And jaundice is a common condition that doesn’t require treatment...until it does. And then when it does, it needs to be…

It sounds like diaper rash. But it’s still not ok.

“In Men’s Health, Pratt also addressed the recent controversy around the Instagram post in which he praised his current wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger, for giving him a “healthy daughter.””

All else aside, he’s right on this one. That was a deeply stupid “controversy.” Of course a person is happy that their kid was…

I sure it was more about the hot potato runaround treatment you get when you try to get a hospital to do anything that isn't routine.

So, do you think sport-parent rage or drug diversion?

So he shot up a hospital because he wouldn’t understand how having his spine cut into might make it hurt for a while. Amazing.

It sounds like the documentarians did the best with a bum hand; they probably planned for this to be a peek into an off-kilter mind, twisted in ways that scare us but close enough to make us terrified, and other ad copy, only to find that Sagawa is kind of just A Guy. A thing alot of people forget is that psychopaths…

To make “Jiro Dreams of Sushi” seem passe.

It seems strange to me that he has never served any time for murdering and eating an innocent young woman. Her family must have been outraged by that outcome.

So, not really a date movie?

Donald Trump: I’m an awful human being.

I doubt you’ve ever seen one without paying for it.

That might be the weakest attempt at trolling I’ve ever seen.

Earlier there was a tweet from a guy who posted a picture of his 97 year old WWII vet grandfather kneeling in support of the NFL protests.

“We’ll continue to be guided by these fundamental principles...”

HEY TWITTER! TWEET THIS!

It’s insane that we even have to discuss a President and his Press Secretary being so petty and unprofessional. I’m sure W was pissed at people protesting him, but he was not a braying moron like Trump.
