Are you talking about Sawbones? Because I loooooooove that podcast 💕

I...feel kind of weird about telling people that images of themselves don’t belong to them...? I mean I get it, but I still feel really weird about it.

Mostly what I got out of this is that I’m not supposed to ask my baby how he’s doing, which, my bad, because I do this basically every time I change a diaper because he hates it with the fire of a thousand suns. Also he’s 12 weeks old and his mood changes about every 3 seconds, so I think it’s pretty fair question.…

I just did the math and that means she was 8 weeks pregnant when she won in January. When *I* was 8 weeks pregnant, I laid on the bathroom floor moaning, when I wasn’t throwing up everything I even thought about eating. I thought she was amazing before but girl, respect.

I recently had an incredibly enlightening conversation with my husband, who I consider as progressive and feminist as a white middle-class straight guy can be, where it became clear to me that he does not actually understand ANYTHING uterus/vagina-related. I had a baby 3 months ago, and he thought that the bleeding…

Not everyone. Murray is and has been in the pockets of several large businesses (Comcast, in particular) and was instrumental in shoving through the tunnel nobody wanted. He gets painted as a good guy because he doesn’t hate gay people, which while an admirable trait, is ALSO because he *is* gay and because not many…

I would love to say that’s what I did, but what actually happened is that I waited for them to leave and then had a massive panic attack that I needed to be drugged for. Did I mention this all came to a head the day I was released from the hospital, the first night I had to sleep at my house without the baby I’d been…

I need this book, but for communicating with in-laws. We had a great relationship until the baby was born, and now they’ve lost their freaking minds and NOTHING is expected of my (male) spouse. They flipped out about how (not) clean my house was, after i’d had a fucking AWFUL pregnancy that ended with a…

In the book, she is absolutely presented as just the vehicle through which the family finds out about their mother/aunt/grandmother. She tries to help them, and definitely helps explain exactly what happened (Deborah, for instance, doesn’t quite grasp what a cell line is, or exactly how much of her mother it…

I’m really excited for this. I have a chronic illness that’s treated with biologics, medications that wouldn’t exist without Henrietta. I gave my son the middle. Are Henry, because he definitely wouldn’t be here without her. I have such complicated feelings about this story (what was done to her and her family is so,…

I just spent 5 days in the hospital prior to the birth of my son, who then spent 24 days in the NICU.

From me, a stay at home mom, to this guy: Fuck You.

Thank you! He’s doing really well now - he was on a ventilator at first because his lungs didn’t inflate right, but now he’s pretty much a “normal” newborn. He’s just learning how to eat since he had a feeding tube, but he seems to have figure out the bottle and has turned into a bit of an eating monster, so I think…

Samesies. I had a TERRIBLE pregnancy that ended when my placenta tried to kill both me AND my (very much wanted) baby, necessitating his 6 week early birth and a lengthy NICU stay (which we are still in the middle of, so forgive me if this makes no sense). NOBODY should have to go trough this, period, but it would be…

I realize that this is a perennial guy favorite to think they’re getting away with, but no. They feel VERY different for both the fuckee and the fucker, and any guy who claims he “slipped” or “didn’t realize it was the wrong hole” (what?!) is a liar AT BEST and you should not be naked with that person again.

I had to get a third of the way through before I realized this was satire, so good on you. Or good on my 7 months pregnant non-working brain, maybe.

If anyone REALLY believes Hillary lost because someone couldn’t get a fucking lawn sign in Michigan, I’ve got a bridge to sell them. Centrally located in Brooklyn, close to all amenities.

I actually lost weight when I was pregnant, in the first and second trimesters. Not really due to anything I was doing - at first I was super sick, but once that passed I just kept losing anyway. I actually insisted on seeing a dietician because I was certain I was starving my baby, but both the dietician and my dr…

I had this EXACT same reaction and had a fight with my husband about it. It felt very victim-blamey to me. Like, “they didn’t notice and their kids died!!”. I think it would have been a stronger message if it was geared more toward “let’s talk about bullying, and easy access to guns”. Which I suppose is a more…

This is not the important part of this story, but Tila...girl, what are you doing?? Did you misunderstand the part where they talked about a white utopia...? You get that Hitler hated POC also, not just Jewish people? What the actual fuck
