I also haven't had The Secks for some time, too tired but very much aware that it has been a while and need to get back in action soon. I have become such a light sleeper I spend most nights in the spare room, which does not help The Secks.

I have done The Secks about 3 or 4 times in 6 months. First time was the best (TMI???) what with all that extra blood flow. Last time was comedically bad with squashed bump and dog as audience. Oh dear so much for not letting things slip...

Do lots of the sex. My pre-eclampsia research findings indicate immune response due to foreifn DNA. Sperm to combat - best taken orally. Fo real.

After almost 2 years of ttc, I would happily never have the secks again. I think we've done it maybe 3 times since the +ive, but like Okie I have become light sleeper and spend most nights in the spare room. I know it is bad for us a couple... but is so nice to have whole bed to self!

and today home births are getting the bashing.

seriously, won't somebody think of the children?!

Report
SkiHorseWonAWean · 30/07/2010 07:15

I saw a link somewhere on mn not so long ago about "all of this". Basically, what with the US health industry being such a financially-led industry - homebirths don't raise much cash... no obstetrician, no paediatrician - just some lowly mw. In addition... it encompasses the infamous teenage birth on the bathroom floor rather than e.g., what I should've had! But yes, the yanks will think those of us who opt for homebirth are barbaric and it's bordering on child abuse.

Am wondering what the PESHes will be doing wrong tomorrow. Am thinking tomorrow's report will say wimmins who return to work destroying baybee's brain/future/lung capacity.

I'm reading a book at the moment about the virginity movement and other such stuff in the US. There's a story in it of a woman who was having a homebirth but went into hospital to get rehydrated. The doctors saw her c-section scar and said she had to have another c-section. She refused and snuck out of the hospital. So they SENT THE POLICE TO HER HOUSE, SHACKLED HER AND TOOK HER TO COURT to force the issue. AND WON!

Speaking of cunting health professionals and other such patronising arseholes. On BBC breakfast this morning they are talking about wimmins who take calcium tablets and risking heart attacks. "Expert" recommended increased dairy consumption and said to drink semi or skimmed milk so as not to eat fat but to get more calcium (skimmed contains more calcium ppm than full). WRONG! Whilst calcium is in fact a water soluble mineral, to absorb it properly you need Vitamin D - a fat soluble vitamin. Vitamin D ALSO regulates the calcium levels in the blood stream - the problem incurred when you take calcium tablets. So basically they're saying don't take calcium tablets and don't eat fat... so you won't absorb or control your calcium levels within your body. Absolute cunts.

These people really are cunts who will spout any old shite.

muser That is shocking. Mind you... anyone using their Tesco clubcard to buy a First Response AND a bottle of wine will soon be datamined and contacted by the social services for extra "monitoring".

Bored horsey gals - the Royal International Horse Show is on Sky Sports this week. Live in the afternoon with replays on at 10pm and then again next morning. Was a fab eventers' challenge on yesterday. Imagine my surprise when someone I knew was actually competing in it! Some random bloke from my hunt who introduced himself to Clucky and I at a party last year with the words 'I'm a showjumper, you know.' He did offer to buy us a drink, but we were barely able to stand up and declined Oh, alcohol and tottering about on high heels late at night, those were the days....

Bloody yanks.

All this talk of sexing has made me resolve to pounce on DH in bed tomorrow morning over the Saturday Grauniad.
