CHOOSING A DOCTOR FOR BABY
Choosing a doctor for your baby is a very important task. Here are some things to keep in mind when looking.

SEX DURING PREGNANCY
Nothing raises as many eyebrows as the subject of sex during pregnancy. Despite the old saying that medical and religious miracles aside, every pregnancy started with a sex act.

------------------ Notes from Robin ------------------

Okay, so I'm tired and cranky. What's new? The baby could be born any day now, and I still don't feel ready. I decided that not being able to lean into the dryer or washer means no more clean clothes for the family, unless someone else wants to do laundry! (Wonder if my husband reads this?)

Have a great week!
