Question

Ok when a woman starts to menstruate she has 400,000 follicles left and with each cycle a thousand follicles are lost and one will mature into an ovum. So if one takes hormone pills to stimulate the production of follicles (and eggs) does that mean that she will have less eggs left than a normal person does? Anybody knows the answer to this?

Baby Gaga

Have you ever come across this? Doesn't it drive you nuts? It drove me nuts when my Facebook wall was flooded with someone's pregnancy progress. And to call it Baby Gaga? Really?



I hate to break it to you kid, but not everyone is interested to know the development of your foetus. There is such a thing called oversharing and Facebook is the perfect platform for that. This got me thinking whether I should deactivate my Facebook account. Maybe I should

Don't You Just Hate It When

People give you the pitying look because you've been married for six years and there's no sign of a baby. This is what happens everytime I go back to my husband's hometown. And let's not forget the ever popular question "when are you gonna have a baby? Don't you think it's about time you have one?" Look here eedjit, firstly, I don't have a crystal ball where I can gaze into and see when the stork's gonna give me my bundle of joy. Secondly, do you think I want to be childless? That I want to bawl my eyeballs out whenever someone tells me she's pregnant? Thirdly, you're rude and it's none of your damn business.

Speaking of rude, maybe next time when someone asks me a stupid question I'm just gonna be rude to them back. And I'm gonna feel good about it. And the next time someone gives me the pitying look, I'll just grab a fork and scrape their eyes out. Sounds like a plan? Yup, it sure does.
