re: #329 HappyWarrior

I have no problem at all with that. There’s a lot of complications that could occur in the third trimester and maybe Ben’s wife the doctor could tell him about that when he gets his out of his ass for once.

I am now at the point in this discussion where I proceed to rip these asshats a new one. My mother nearly died of preeclampsia when I was born in 1960. And preeclampsia is very much still a thing. I remember her telling me how a girlfriend of hers came into the hospital after she’d delivered me and was able to see people (at least three days after I was born) and counted the places on my mom’s body where she’d been stuck with needles. They came up with 64. It was serious business—my parents were still paying off my delivery bill when my younger siblings were born.

I had a woman tell me this morning that pregnancy is not dangerous. I gave her a ******* earful!
