While I was working in a maternity unit, I answered the phone to more than one woman wanting to know if it's safe to eat curry when you're pregnant/breastfeeding? My usual answer was:. "It doesn't seem to do millions of Indian babies any harm.". Another woman rang in a panic to tell us she'd swallowed a plum stone. Yes? "But I'm pregnant!". Yes? "Well, what about the baby?!". Relax, the baby's in your uterus, the plum stone is in your digestive tract, they don't join up.
Hahaha this just made me cry laughing!
I have to agree with all of the posts about germs though, a whole market born off the back of people’s fears! Genius!
Groundcover plants are an ABOMINATION planted by garden owners who thinking of buying plastic grass 90%of the weeds in my front garden are groundcover plants from next door.
I remember a friend whose baby was overdue saying that she was going to try rhubarb and olive oil. My mind boggled TMI IT was only days later that I realised she meant to eat it.
DDW advertising is about giving you a fear of something that had never occurred to you and then telling you they can sell you the perfect solution. Religion is pretty much the same.
Looked in the mirror this morning :white hair , wrinkles ,greying eyebrows and what’s more my aunt was looking back at me ..Lastweek it was a different aunt .Who do you see when you look in the mirror ? Please don’t say me .
I rarely look in the mirror and if I do I'm usually flying out the door, just making sure my face is clean and hair somewhat tidy looking..........I see a middle aged woman, surprises me all the time! How...........when..........did all that grey hair appear, as if overnight. Those 'smile' lines......I sometimes see my Gran (a younger version!), various aunts. I'm exactly double my eldest child's age this year......where did all those years go? How fast time seems to pass as we age.
