My mom sent this to me today via email. I thought it was going to be one of those “Medical Reasons Why You Need to Pop Out My Grandbaby, NOW,” but instead, it’s this:
Pregnancy, Estrogen and Women
Pregnancy Q &A & More!
Q: Should I have a baby after 35?
A: No, 35 children is enough.
Q: I’m two months pregnant now. When will my baby move?
A: With any luck, right after he finishes college.
Q: What is the most reliable method to determine a baby’s sex?
A: Childbirth.
Q: My wife is five months pregnant and so moody that sometimes she’s
borderline irrational.
A: So what’s your question?
Q: My childbirth instructor says it’s not pain I’ll feel during labor, but
pressure. Is she right?
A: Yes, in the same way that a tornado might be called an air current.
Q: When is the best time to get an epidural?
A: Right after you find out you’re pregnant.
Q: Is there any reason I have to be in the delivery room while my wife is in
labor?
A: Not unless the word “alimony” means anything to you.
Q: Is there anything I should avoid while recovering from childbirth?
A: Yes, pregnancy.
Q: Do I have to have a baby shower?
A: Not if you change the baby’s diaper very quickly.
Q: Our baby was born last week. When will my wife begin to feel and act
normal again?
A: When the kids are in college.

After I took an Atmospheric Sciences class in college and learned about smog and the organizations involved in controlling smog, I’ve called 1-800-CUT-SMOG a few times on severely smoking cars. It goes to SCAQMD (Southern California Air Quality Management District) and if enough people call on a particular vehicle, it just flags DMV to send out their smog check requirement sooner.
