    Except that I bought the kit and never got a chance to use it 'cos I was just pregnant...

    passed it on to a friend who fell pregnant before use as well.
    So it became known as the pregnancy inducing personna!!!!! :rotfl:

    Mouth or armpit, I believe, first thing in the morning.
    The ability of skinny old ladies to carry huge loads is phenomenal. An ant can carry one hundred times its own weight, but there is no known limit to the lifting power of the average tiny eighty-year-old Spanish peasant grandmother.

    I thought this was about an Old Style Contraption!!

    If you've had your family, given birth etc etc, and you're in a long term relationship, what about Mr Lydia getting the snip? It probably stings, but I should imagine giving birth stings a bit more...so his turn! Or he could get some "socks".

    Sorry, didn't answer your question. I don't know too much about it tbh, just what I learnt at (Catholic) school. Unfortunately the underlying message was that having lots of babies was good and that accidents are actually gifts from God. (Though the nuns didn't actually congratulate the two girls who missed their A levels due to morning sickness).
