Thanks for the vote of confidence, but you really need an obstetrician for that.

Plus, I'd never get any sleep or any time to drop in here because I'd be chained to the help line. Also, giving out medical advice is bad and could cost me my license.

I could just put up a web page with FAQs, and have each question link to the same answer: "Call your OB/CNM".

(Puts a mango daquiri in stasis for later)

Ooh.. I just remembered it's Flaming Rum Punch season! I needs to get me some apple cider!

Aww... sorry, Rose...
But, unfortunately, welcome to college.
Worse yet, welcome to career-after-college.
In my limited experience, I've found that you have to put up with that bullshit in order to get to the good stuff. Fortunately, most of the college bullshit will be a one-time-suffering... career bullshit, on the other hand, comes with the territory.

I have spent the whole semester being commanded to ignore the technology that exists so readily all around me, wasting paper and glue and cameras and hours of my time, and being told that I'm foolish and stubborn to think everything can be done on computer... which it can, with far greater efficiency of time and far less waste ...
I'm hesitant to say this, cuz I can only imagine it won't be a popular perspective, but... From my point of view, any hack can use a computer and take advantage of the technologies available. I mean, christ, just look at flickr or DeviantArt or any other corner of the 'Net. The technology does not make you good or even talented; being able to use technology does not make you good or even talented. If you can bring whatever talent you think you have to the front no matter what technology - or lack thereof - is available to you for that medium, then you've grown into an artist. Anything short of that, it's just like everyone else who sketches a stick-figure house and calls themselves an architect.

That's not meant to put you down or tell you how it ought to be done or anything like that. I think you're a very talented woman. I just think that if you can accept the frustration of the stupidity of the bullshit they're asking you to do, your talent will shine through no matter what, and you'll grow as an artist... even if that growth is of the "holy crap, that was fucking stupid, but now I know what I don't ever want to do again" variety.

'cause you're really brave Nico:)

HUGS Rosie.. you're still more comforting than the doctor


and calling your obgyn will get you... "It could be nothing or something" Basically it's like knowing you're going to get a disease and there are 10 symptoms. You might get all, some , or only a few symptoms. When you get the symptoms it might mean you need to go to the ER right way, in a day or two, or in a week. No one can tell you anything ,but you are expected to " just know" when your symptoms are emergency level. If you screw up you and someone else could die or be seriously injured...and all your doctor will say is well It might be, but maybe not" as a guideline. ARGH... where are the researchers when you need them????

Yesterday I watched on of those " baby story" things on TLC and here's a couple with 2 other kids so they've done this twice before and they are sitting on the bed with the book trying to figure out if the wife is in labor...we need a new system


EDIT- and I've killed the thread.... so in non baby related areas
Why is there still a world series and who exactly is watching it? Hasn't everyone given up on baseball???

((raises her hand)) I keep sayin': that's why they call it a "medical practice"

Seriously.

This isn't science, people. XD

...

You didn't kill the thread, MsA. Everyone else is just too lazy / busy / not interested in entertaining us. Foo. =P

Yes a double foo on them!

See this is why I want researchers and scientists... scientists have precise answers. I like precision.... very comforting:)

Or they could just figure a way to shorten gestation to 10 weeks.. I could do that:)

Ouch, got me on two counts...

As for MsA, why go with 10 weeks? Let's just go with in vitro fertilization, artifical womb, and accelerated growth. Then you can have your own little Boba Fett in just a few years.
