I got my first period at school, the beginning of 6th grade. I was terrified, mortified, all kinds of “-fied.” Too embarrassed to go to the office (the nurse wasn’t in that day and our principal was male), I stuffed half a roll of t.p. in my underpants and tried very hard not to have to get up and move. I’m just…

Once again, Tatiana Maslany and “Orphan Black” get dissed. It’s like they have never watched the show and seen her incredible talent. Oh, well... At least *I* know an amazing actress when I see one. ; )

The internet has been a great help for me, as far as menopause, perimenopause, etc. goes. Lots of informative websites that go into all the gory details. Being at the beginning of perimenopause, I know how it is.

*Bump*

You need a different pediatrician. The first well-baby visit should be at around 2 weeks.

I’ve been a pleasant, considerate, and sometimes highly starred poster on the Kinja sites for over a year, and I’m still always buried in the grays. So don’t feel too bad. I still have hope of becoming a respected member of the Kinja community before I die (my life goals are simple). ;-)

In my experience, people who are really fucking high tend to lack the motivation to pull off something like that. Hell, they lack the motivation to look for the TV remote and will happily stare at late night infomercials for hours. ;-)

Just like Mom used to make! (She always was a horrible cook...)

Wearing heels higher than 2 inches for extended periods of time while constantly on your feet can cause a multitude of health problems. Spine and neck damage, ankle and knee injuries, foot and toe damage that can possibly result in amputation if the shoes are too tight and binding, permanent instep damage, etc. And…

It may not be considered an “emergency,” but I can tell you, if it was me in her situation, I wouldn’t be able to focus or think about much else until I had the definitive answer. Speaking as a woman (and I imagine it would go pretty much the same for a man in the same or similar circumstances), the words “breast…

Oh, wow... Uh... how... um... sweet(?). I can see it - especially around the eyes. She’s probably what they call “an old soul.” She’ll outgrow the Reedus, though. ;-)

I have a niece on the way, and as much as I’m all about Daryl Dixon, I can only hope... LOL

There’s nothing wrong with telling someone their child is beautiful. All babies are beautiful, boys and girls alike. Except maybe for that one kid I once saw who looked like Stephen King, complete with unibrow, but I digress...

You need to find a better doctor. I highly recommend a female OBGYN. A female doc is more likely to take your concerns seriously, and will probably be better equipped (no pun intended) to sympathize with what you’re dealing with.

How to Get Rid of Telemarketers.

I just want to know how one can fracture their liver. Perforated or ruptured, I get. Unless the dog was an alcoholic and his liver was really brittle or something. Don’t get me wrong - this kind of cruelty absolutely sickens me, but I really am curious about the wording in the report.

Fair point. :-)

*ETA - Also, the theory that if you do not consume sugar, you absolutely “CANNOT” get a yeast infection is way off-base. There are several factors to consider when it comes to fungal infections, and besides that, it is impossible to avoid sugar completely - it’s found naturally in fruits, vegetables, and the body…

That’s pretty much what I thought. It was just the way it was worded that made me go back and re-read it a few times to make sure I wasn’t misreading what she said. :-)
