Well, I think pregnancy is a LITTLE more than "something of a medical nature." We're talking about our hope and joy for the future here! They're not just some tumor or bacteria or disease, but a little tiny person that has a whole life ahead of them. The way I see it, you SHOULD tell every about them. Go ahead and tell strangers, spread the news. Show the world that the baby is more than some private little secret that only you can know about. If I had a wife who was having a baby, I'd be proud and telling anyone who will listen...but then again I explain boring photographic procedures to people who probably don't care.

Sorry, I'm still getting over the mother in out town who beat her baby son to death this weekend. He was buried today. He was originally taken away from her with a broken arm and fractured skull, and placed in a caring foster home. Child services & the mother demanded the baby back after not too long. A few days after being returned to the mother, little Ivan was dead. Maybe if she wouldn't have been so jealous and selfish, and let the "caring strangers" take care of him, he would be alive now.

Goodbye Ivan...
