Parenting 2008

This just in...I guess things have changed in the 16 years since I birthed "the son". I just heard about the two latest trends in pre and post preganancy.
Cross Nursing
The mother and an appointed nurser would share nursing duties for said child. EEWWW! So, Heather Locklear and I have kids that are 2 months apart. That would be like one of us whipping out the breast and latching on which ever kid is crying at the moment. (I think I threw up a little in the back of my throat) Don't get me wrong. I am all for nursing. I nursed "the son" until he started to mistake my nipple for a teething ring. It's just that this sounds like something from 1778 rather then 2008. They are trying to take us all the way back to wet nurses. I just can't get with the Mamie tittie.

BabyMoon
A babymoon is a trip that the parents take shortly before the new arrival. They are about 2 to 4 days long and involve lots of relaxation and massages and the such. A time for the parents to have a break before the their lives are turned upside down; kinda like the calm before the storm. There are packages all over the internet. Now this I can get with. I am down with this because who knows the next time you'll get a vacation that doesn't involve Mickey Mouse!
