I think we'll know when it happens. Unavoidable

Hairy muff

Oh who gives a fuck

 

[RedDragon]

Poor kid

 

[kittyP]

Oh who gives a fuck

Its not that I really give a fuck, I dunno.

 

[UrbaneFox]

It also assumes it's Kate who's had the "difficulty".

Perhaps her hubby's a Jaffa

What's a jaffa?

 

[Greebo]

What's a jaffa?

Seedless - it was a USP of the Jaffa orange.

 

[UrbaneFox]

Thank you.

 

[shagnasty]

Its not that I really give a fuck, I dunno 99.99 percent of woman love babies,so it's not unusual for ladies to get a chuffed at the birth of a baby.There will be thousands of babies born this year and a lot of happy mothers so one very priveledge mothers is tiny in the scheme of things

i meant to reply i don't know what happened then

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

What's a jaffa?

 

[DotCommunist]

I hope photoshoppers have all got their pictures of John Terry at the ready.

She obviously wasn't wearing a cap, either.
She should have taken some style tips from Teal'c.

I've just heard on LBC that

75% of babies are born after their due date

Ummm... doesn't that just mean that the due date calculation is wrong?

 

[pissflaps]

stop listening to LBC! it will make you sterile!

Indeed it does! It doesn't take into account different lengths of gestation for different ethnic groups or for first and subsequent babies. Some doctor 200 years ago decided on 266 days from conception and that has stuck as an easy calculation for medical staff. The average length of a first pregnancy in a caucasian woman is actually 8 days longer than that.

Can't help it. I got bored of R4 and R5 a few weeks ago and was looking for another talk station. One thing led to another, it all spiralled out of control, and now it's on my TuneIn favourites list

Now if I don't get my fix of angry taxi drivers shouting about immigration I get the shakes.

Any alternative suggestions gratefully received.

Medical science lol

sounds like bollocks, as birth date appears to be normally distributed around the due date.

Babies can only come one or two weeks late, but can come months early, so that distorts the 'average'.

 

[bi0boy]

There won't be any government minister present this time to guard against a changeling, so who knows what kind of lizard devil child monarch we'll end up being suppressed by.

 

[Corax]

I don't want music on the bloody radio, whale or otherwise.

If I want music, I have a collection of stuff I know I like, and stuff that sounds interesting that I want to try.

I listen to the radio to learn new and interesting things, or hear different points of view, or to know what's going on in the world. Or to hear how much immigration makes taxi drivers angry.

Average for a first baby is 8 days "late". And as Santino says, once you get to 10 days hospitals start hassling you for an induction anyway.
