Can fat babies do somersaults?
I overheard the midwives talking with another patient when I was at our last appointment.
“Oh, you’ll just love him. First of all, he’s gorgeous – tall, with these smoky eyes. And he’s got this gentle voice,” one cooed.

Turn, baby, turn
No, it is not a disco inferno. But something is burning.
We are currently trying moxibustion in order to get the baby to move into proper upside-down position, instead of continuing to dance on my wife’s liver and bang his/her head against her ribs.
This is called breech position. To me, the word “breech” sounds exceedingly [...]

Don’t tell anybody else about the pregnancy. Keep it between you and your wife. This includes dropping obvious hints. I have a few friends who told me right away, and then had problems, and it just resulted in unnecessary awkward conversations. You should be at the point in your life where you can [...]
