MsA .. I have a query, is it true that its good for you baby to have a small glass of Guiness once a month whilst pregnant!? Someone told me that it was and I got confused. All I was thinking was, isn't that alcohol? But apparently, the iron in it outways all else ..

Well several European countries have said that 1 glass of wine a week isn't bad , but honestly no one knows what the real " safe" limit is since you'd have to experiment on pregnant women and cause severe birth defects to find out. I personally think no alcohol is the safe course since you can't know for sure given genetics, predisposition, and variations if you're going to cause an effect or not and since the effect is permanent brain damage, emotional problems, birth defects, psychological malformation, and fetal alcohol syndrome.. I'd rather be careful than wrong since it's not like you can take it back or undo the damage if you screw up

As for the iron content... pregnant women take prenatal vitamins with high levels of iron so whatever's in guiness would be pointless and not nutritious at all... someone saying that sounds like they are trying to justify their behavior. There are loads of foods like spinach, red meat, etc that have iron in them ( far more than beer)

I think thats the position I would take too. If there's any chance it could harm the baby I wouldn't do it.

I recently found out that a girl I went to primary school with and haven't seen since we were 11 is pregnant. She's not even 17 yet (I don't think her birthday's that far off tho) and all her status' on facebook read are things like "My life is crap, can't believe I can't drink for another 3 months. I have no life." And all I can think is you don't deserve to be allowed to keep this baby! I mean, she's going to start drinking again as soon as its born, if she breast feeds then that baby's pretty much screwed. I feel bad because I'm laughing at her situation tho. Not the pregnant thing, coz I just feel sorry for that baby, but the fact that she spent 4 months going "I want a boy. Can wait to meet him. He's gonna be just like his dad." and then she found out it was a girl ..

Eurgh, people like that just wind me up tho. She's responsible for this child, and she shouldn't moan about it. If she is that bothered about it, she shouldn't be keeping it. I mean, there are so many people out there who can't have kids who would be such better parents. BAH!

[ / rant]

Sorry, went off on a bit of a tangent there ...

Well it takes an hour for a drink to get out of your system so it's ok for her to drink after the baby is born even if she's breastfeeding so long as she times it so she has a drink at least 2 hours before she nurses... no big. But yes her attitude SUCKS!! But it's one of the reasons having kids before you're ready is a bad idea

All babies should be wanted and loved

HA. a few days ><;; we went from 40 to 82 over night. which just rocked :P lol

WuS: you think that's bad (and yeah, thats an absolutely wonderful attitude to have towards such a beautiful little creation), there's a woman in my town who can't have children, and she just adopted this baby from a drug addicted mother who didn't want her (and wasn't fit to support her anyway). so the baby already had a few problems to deal with, but in this woman's care she's been doing absolutely phenomenal. cut to three months later (i.e. the present), this mentally unstable relative of the mother comes forward and says she wants the baby back. SOMEHOW, by a ruling of absolutely HELLISH quality, the judge ruled in favor of said unfit relative, and theyre taking the baby away.

all i can say is: what the FUCK, batman?

Don't get me started on that one.

I *was* enjoying my time off from work, now I'm emotionally right back at the clinic. AAAAAAAA!!!!!

The chickens are laying eggs. We're going to a friend's house for a birthday party tomorrow. I have people coming over for a while on Monday.

Since Thursday I have gotten the plants in, roughed out an enclosure for the chickens, hung laundry on the line for the first time since October, arranged for summer childcare, gotten a quote on gravel and cement for the driveway, weeded large portions of the gardens, dragged out/sorted/attached the hoses and watered so that plants will live, started work on a shift (sewing), figured out how a dress is put together from video clips, done medieval dancing then gone out to dinner with friends, swabbed out a large cabin on my son's school camping trip and had a lovely drive there and back, baked a fruity thing for the potluck, done the grocery shopping, taken out all my summer clothes, packed away the winter stuff, took a nap, and some other things I'm forgetting.

AND I STILL HAVE THREE MORE DAYS OFF!

Can I stop now?

Ice Tea! I have a craving for some in real life now. :/ Stupid England .. the only place I can get decent Ice Tea includes a 40 min bus journey :/

&& that sucks for the couple who adopted the kid. No one should be able to take it away from them, especially someone so unstable, even if they are a relative.

Anyway, on a lighter topic .. FREE HOUSE x3
