@abbyobenchain @Bells4Dais @Patricia_Ann_E How long is considered "long pushing phases" during pregnancy? I had no idea this could have such a delayed onset!

@DarrenCriss Were you trying to write a Christmas cousin for The Supremes "You Can't Hurry Love" or did "Christmas Dance" just turn out like that? Either way, 💯.

@mikaylaredden I watched the CARL webinar you were part of last week for LIS9003 at UWO with Dr. Paulette Rothbauer. I'd love to send you a DM and offer to do some legwork for a LoC revision proposal or something else you might want to delegate to a busyworker.

You came to the Toronto baby one, too, right?

We've got some truly wonderful abominations going on here.

Anyone get a puppy for Christmas? If so, pictures please. Or, whatever. Just post pictures of dogs enjoying Christmas!

@denise_dewald @KellyBacon Other options include a shot of pitocin to encourage contractions to continue and/or externally massaging the uterus by pushing on the stomach. The shot is often given after birth (called active management) to reduce likelihood of hemorrhage.

Septic arthritis at 8, appendicitis at 20, possibly childbirth at 25. Amazing midwives + fantastic doctors + modern medicine in 2019 Toronto = baby and mama home safe and sound the same day. Same birth in 1919 (or today in Sierra Leone) likely would not have such a happy ending.

My not-quite-two-year-old sat still for a whole 10 minutes to watch the concert. High praise from him!

$20k for @FeedingAmerica almost makes up for how truly underwhelming this was.

Excuse me! Excuse me! Arno! Excuse me! Aah! Holy shit! Move, dog!!

Not sure how he got up there. I'm sure my toddler was the brains but I don't yet know who was the muscle.

My mother-in-law arranged these blocks to say "joy" and "peace". My husband and I had other ideas...

Not sure what it says about me that this is how I've started 90% of my conversations in the past year. I know it's nothing good, though.

@genna_buck Dear Hank and John is low-commitment and always enjoyable for me.

Oh nooooo. I've become /that/ mom...
