Baby Nursery
COULD I POST A POEM HERE AND HEAR OPINIONS ON WHETHER IT IS IN GOOD TASTE OR NOT? RE BABIES?
May 1st
Question by Dougie Quick:
Could I post a poem here and hear views on whether it is in good taste or not? Re Babies?
BTW the limerick here I chose the title: “Pink or blue?”
“A baby was born in Peru, with genetic instructions for two. Father made a stink when the mom chose pink so they settled on both pink and blue.”
So I am just asking anyone: Do you think it might cross a line for decency? I mean it does happen, does it make a child obscene? How could any newborn child be obscene? The filth would only be in someone’s mind. But aside from the issue that of course an actual individual’s privacy would never permit making such a discussion along with their identity. Limiting things to the fictional then, the question becomes: is it healthy to treat the idea of such kids as taboo or is it okay to make full mention of them along with “normal” babies? If it’s not taboo then what about this sort of limerick among other poems and such in a little book centered on babies? To me it just demonstrates the parents strong love for their child and each other in suggesting that the biggest problem in dealing with such an occurrence is solved in deciding what colors to decorate the nursery in. It’s almost making the fact that their child having two sets of DNA if not a small thing then at least nothing that is going to shake them in their love of each other or the child. Obviously not that some folks could not see in it recommendations of various leanings or politics, morality stances etc. However nothing of the sort is in there at all, and for that matter one might follow it to down right obscene scenarios if they were bent like that. In every case it would all spring from their own heart, as I guarantee it was not in the writer’s mind. Well anyway what do you all say about it? Thanks in advance

MY MIL IS TRYING TO CONTROL EVERYTHING ABOUT MY PREGNANCY :( WHAT CAN I DO? PLEASE HELP :(?
Apr 2nd
Question by :
My MIL is trying to control everything about my pregnancy 
What can I do? Please Help ?
I apologize in advance for long this is, but I just can’t take this anymore
I’m 39 weeks pregnant with my first daughter, Elizabeth Gabrielle, and my MIL has been trying to control every single decision about her since the day I told her I was pregnant. My MIL hates the name my DH and I have picked; she says it’s too “common”. When I told her the color scheme for the nursery was aqua blue and yellow, she told me that those were ugly colors and she would be decorating the nursery since I have “no taste”. My MIL even came over with cans of pink and red paint and told me I needed to leave the home so she could redo the nursery the “right” way. I kicked her out, but she hasn’t let it go. I’ve made it very clear from the beginning that the only people granted at the hospital would be my husband and I, and everyone else was more than welcome to visit us once we get home and are settled in, which my husband and I figured would be about 4 or 5 days. My MIL told me that I was selfish and she announced that she would be the first to hold our daughter once she was born. My husband has sat down with her and explained that it’s our baby, not hers, and she said that it doesn’t matter because since were first time parents, we have no business being alone with our baby. No one else in his family or my family acts like she does. I picked out an outfit for my daughter to come home from the hospital in, but my MIL threw it away and replaced it with awful red frilly dress that she says is “perfect” for a newborn. I told her she had no right to do that and she left my home crying. She called my husband that night and told him I was a horrible person and she threated that she would call CPS if we keep her away from her grandbaby.
I can’t take this anymore. I’ve tried to be nice to her, I’ve tried to explain to her that we have no intention of keeping our daughter away from her, but she just doesn’t listen. If something doesn’t go her way, she throws a fit. My husband gave up on her and told me I’d just have to suck it up and deal with it, because he can’t just ignore his mother. I will NEVER ask my husband to kick his mom out of his life, but I don’t know how much more of this I can take.
Have any mommies been in a situation like this before? How did you handle it? Any help at all is greatly appreciated. Thanks for reading.

Question by brandonandbobbie:
baby nursery paint colors.can color influence intelligence?
are there certain colors you can paint your baby’s nursery that is suppose to make your baby smarter? Were having a girl but im picky about the shades of pink im finding. Im afraid pink would get really old really fast. I really do not have a theme picked out, im just doing whatever right now… Thanks! – Bobbie
ok i know parents and education make your baby smarter people!!! BUT the more stimuli a baby has the more intelligent it would be, i.e. the more colors, shapes, textures, gosh people im not relying on the color of my nursery to make or break my babys intelligence!!!
