YESSSSS! At the very least we can simul-tweet like mean girls giggling in the back of the theater.

(I bet we could make a trending topic and everything. ZOMG JBeibz I <3 U!!!)

Oh I'm doing it! Yes, you should let people know. I want everyone to do it to so that I'll post if only out of sheer guilt :)

And I know I only read for your hard drive dumps ;)

Ha, thanks. This post had everything to do with the order in which I went through my Google Reader that day -- total happenstance. To the extent that I'm sharp at all, it's probably because I'm angry. And I delete a lot of drafts of "ASDFJLKSJDFLSK!!! MAMA SMASH!!!" ;)

Thanks for reading, it means a lot to me.

Indeed - surprising, isn\'t it, that the hospital that sets your broken arm or treats your kid for asthma might be willing to turn around and lock you up for not doing as you\'re told!

I think you may be right. I know that there is somebody who tweets and blogs about bedrest under the name @mamasonbedrest - I wonder what she would have to say about it.

Thanks for your response, and for your post as well. Trust me, I had to take a couple of minutes to compose myself before I wrote out my response!

I think that my response wasn't published because I always put "The Internet" as my location. Then again, I think I saw another non-geographic location, so I'll just say it got moderated so I can feel all self-righteous (I kid, I kid!)

Oh, Amber. There are SO SO MANY myths about women's reproduction and their motivation (they crank out the babies to collect welfare checks, they have abortions because they're selfish and just can't be bothered to be mothers). When will the world understand that women exist in more than two dimensions and have complex feelings about their bodies and their babies...

I think part of it is that so many women are treated poorly during labor that it hurts to think that it didn't have to happen. It can be easier to call other women self-indulgent than to realize that she wasn't treated with the dignity she deserves.

Thanks for your work and being a true ally to women! I wish everyone could have someone like you standing next to them at birth.
