  14. Whether or not you decide to have kids is entirely up to you, but it is perfectly normal to have doubts. Many people will try to pressure you into having children, especially your own family. But if you feel that it's not right for you, then you should stick to your guns. There is nothing wrong with being childless. #Antinatalism #ChildFree #Parenting #Pregnancy

  17. In a controlled trial of 215 pregnant Ecuadorean women, the treatment group was provided with a diet that was presumed to conform to ancestral norms from 12 weeks to birth. They also received diet counseling. Ultrasound imaging at four times during pregnancy showed greater growth of subcortical brain structures in fetuses of the treatment group.

  23. Even the best lives are never free of disappointments and hardships. But for a countless number of people, life is a vexation that must be endured rather than an experience to be enjoyed. Gradual, self-imposed extinction is a ready-made cure for all life's vexations, no matter their severity.

  25. An *in vitro* study found that human embryonic stem cells lost their ability to develop normally when exposed to vanillin. These tests were carried out because vanillin is commonly present in e-cigarettes, and vaping has been associated with difficulty conceiving and with miscarriage.

    The results can't be straightforwardly interpreted with respect to vaping's effect on pregnancy.

  27. Today I finished watching the documentary A Child of My Own about Eleonor Alejandra Marín Mendoza who, after years of fertility troubles, faked a pregnancy, stole a newborn from a hospital in Mexico, and tried to pass the baby off as her own.

    Has anyone else here seen it? It was a sad story for everyone involved.

    I like the way that documentaries can explore rare things like this, though. Our world is an interesting place.
