post-c-section. can you ever lose tummy?
I have just been reading some rather depressing things about how after a c-section women rarely ever get their tummy flat again. The thought of having this 'pouch' as a tummy and never being able to wear hipster jeans again makes me feel miserable. Has anyone here ever got a flat tummy after a section? Does pilates help?…

Basic dental care - how much does it cost?
I'm a US citizen living in the UK, and I'm still trying to get used to things. As far as I can tell, I have no chance of getting an NHS dentist. ;) That's not too heavy a blow, because I paid for my own dental care in the US, and didn't think anything of it. But I have no idea what prices would be here for comparison,…

Sounds strange when most of the population has…
