100%. I had my first when I had just turned 36 and will have another before I hit 39. My OB told me that they didn’t do anything differently with me than they would have for a 30 year old; that over 40 was where the real extra stuff kicks in. BUT — insurance covered some additional testing because I was geriatric.

1. Sure, policy can be changed. Company provides notice. Don’t use their service. (What if I can’t avoid it! It’s my ISP!) — Recall when a wholly non-essential service, Instagram tried to change its privacy policy allow broad use of images in commercial contexts and how that went? Right; the Internet shouted it…

But, there are things to stop the telecom companies regulated by the FCC, the only companies to which these proposed regulations would have applied, from selling data. First, their current privacy policies disallow it in most cases. Second, some state laws affect the collection of sensitive data. Third, the FTC…

The song was written by Katherine Lee Bates, Wellesley College class of 1880. As any Wellesley alum can tell you, the preferred lyric is “crown they good with SISTERHOOD”- with a strong,shouted emphasis on sisterhood. Good on these ladies.

This Associated is AWFUL, but the perogis are good. You’re missing out. The Garden is not my jam, but better. The best options are Instacart and Fresh Direct in that particular portion of the ‘hood.

The challenges on these courses are insanely hard and require an incredible mix of strength, flexibility, speed and balance — as well as a certain degree of height (which has plagued otherwise super-skilled women (and men) in the past). She flew through that so easily. That’s incredibly impressive.

There are many steps where things went horribly wrong with the system here, but what’s the value of an electronic monitor that doesn’t alert anyone? (Zero, by the way. It’s value is zero.) Even if $100k bail were reasonable in this case, that is premised on, apparently, monitoring/house arrest. If that’s not a viable…

1. She’s stunningly beautiful. While it may not be true that she has no makeup on in this photo she knew it would be shared, she’s not “made up” looking.

I did not take my husband’s last name, but our son has his last name, and I have no problem with folks referring to us, or sending mail to, the “His LastName’s”. I think of us that way, we’re the “His LastName Family” even though that’s not my last name. Maybe that’s illogical? Works for us.

Love it but would be worried about softness of stone for something that you might plan to wear all the time. My engagement ring and matching wedding band are sapphires for that reason. I didn’t want diamonds and sapphire is just as sturdy/hard (and also gorgeous). And I never take them off regardless of what I’m…

Co-signed. It seems like there are media personalities, television shows, political candidates, talk radio hosts all tripping over themselves to express how Christian they are. Certainly some of the TV shows seem really exploitative to me (I’m looking at you TLC) but there’s definitely no lack in the media of…

Has anyone ever made the argument that a penis *does* make you qualified to be president? I mean, using those words? I am just not sure why we have to get so anatomical about it. Particularly since the Democrats actually have (or are trying to have) articulated policy positions which can be debated. Can’t at least one…

I was a Hilary supporter in 2008 — as a U. Chicago alum who had classes with Professor O — and this time around I’ve been sitting back and watching because I have election fatigue already. But, the more I listen to Mr. Sanders the more I realize, I’M WITH HER. And I better start shouting about it.

Whatever. I delivered in NYC at 36 and for my doc’s practice I was on the younger side. She didn’t even consider me AMA. Come to my doc. She’s great. You’ll feel like a spring chicken in the waiting room.

Benefit of having kid in mid-thirties: more life experience, secure in career/job, secure financially.

I’ve rewatched the entire series since having a baby a few months ago and the parallels to now are startling and maddening - it’s like we’ve gotten nowhere since the glory days of the 90s. (Not really true, we have healthcare and marriage equality — that’s pretty significant - -but people still argue about those…

You are not old (because that would make me old). How are they on season 31 though? The Real World didn’t start while I was in elementary school . . .

Optimistic take (provided he doesn’t actually win the election): at least now all the racist, bigots, and purposefully ignorant among us are standing up to be counted so we know who they are? I don’t know what we do with that information, since unlike Donald, I understand how the Constitution and civil liberties work,…

You’re right, there totally is a chicken/egg problem. And, I think the women’s sports in the US with the most money behind it — the WNBA — isn’t necessarily destined to be the most popular. If more USWNT games were televised, I think they would see a huge bump. People love watching them - and the competition has…
