Female Anatomy

Sex and the City repeats are on and this episode was yesterday. Don’t lie to me – you probably recognize this phrase! It’s only one of the best episodes (Carrie falls on her face during the fashion show).     Charlotte sees her obgyn for “burning, stinging, itching” and is diagnosed with vulvodynia. She is […]

Pregnancy

Everyone knows pregnant women need to pee all the time. It has become a bad joke. I bet you didn’t know that urine smell and color can change during pregnancy though. This doesn’t really affect how much you urinate, but it’s just interesting.     The change in smell can be from different foods and changing […]

Pregnancy

To end my mini-series of gender predicting, I will provide you with list of the other ways to predict the gender of your baby: either from the internet (parenting.com has a list), or patients, or other reading.

Pregnancy

You can’t beat a 98% accuracy rate!     When my sister was pregnant with her first baby, she and her husband didn’t want to know if it was a boy or girl. They wanted to wait until delivery. Along the way, though, she had several premonitions telling her it was a boy: * She […]

Pregnancy

What is the proper etiquette when inquiring if a woman is with child? There is none. I googled “when is it ok to ask a woman if she is pregnant” and came up with thousands of responses. Here’s my favorite: (I would add another woman after delivery because it takes about 6 weeks for your […]

Pregnancy

I am surrounded by pregnant women: my job, my social life, my gossip rag magazines. A common question for me: “when should I tell people I am pregnant?” The answer depends on your relationship with the tell-ee. There are no strict rules.

Supplements. Potions. Lotions

I stand by my Moxie Rx recipe from my last post. It is delicious, and I truly believe it helped me fight (and win) against my latest cold threat. If you missed it, check out my last post. For real. Read it! Just today, 3 different patients, not reading my blog or knowing about this […]
