It's a totally in-general observation that doesn't stop at birth, that's annoyed me since the moment I got pregnant with L-man...in fact, it's worse when baby comes out and you're constantly comparing him to other boys his age wondering "is he going to measure up??" Because if he doesn't, SURELY that makes you less of a woman with genes inferior to those of the general population.<br /><br />As far as popping that thing out of you, it doesn't matter if it's 6 pounds or 12 pounds....it's still way too big for its route (especially in the shoulder area), be it a 4-inch incision or a 1cm-in-diameter tube, and that makes anyone a woman in my book!<br /><br />:)Abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14262889490539720754noreply@blogger.com
