As some of you know oxsarahxo sadly lost her baby girl Jessica Charlotte Reay hours after giving birth. We are arranging a star to be named after Jessica and a lantern for her resting place from all of us. We also thought it would be nice to make a contribution to Sarah & Matt so they can use it towards flower arrangements, head stone or resting place arrangements. If you would like to contibute please PM me for details.

Pfft, he wishes. Why do men always think they could handle birth and pregnancy better than us but the minute they get a cold, sorry "man flu" they are confined to bed for weeks on end as if they are dying...? |

It takes out all the nutrients and energy from a person. So, some men are more sympathetic. The lesser evolved ones are clueless and are not aware that pregnancy is a major change to the body. Those are the ones who did not pay attention in biology class.  | | | | Status: Offline

Being pregnant is better than when I used to PMT!
So, bring it on - let's bash idiots thread, Sparky!!!  | | | | Status: Offline

| Honestly? No. With my luck nothing eventful would happen, no sore back, no sore hips, no trouble sleeping, no anything. Then he would spend the rest of it telling me, "oh it's not that bad!" This way I can just tell him all sorts of things and he has to take my word for it lol!  |
