Babies have a bit of their skull that’s not properly grown yet so they have a hole and that’s just weird.

That is well weird innit. We’re an idiot species that’s designed wrong though so we can’t give birth to them when they’re finished properly like other mammals.

I read a thing when Jimbo was on the way that because of advances in medical science, babies in the womb are healthier, which means that they’re bigger, which means that it’s more difficult / damaging for them to be born naturally, which is the main reason for the increase in caesareans, rather than individual choice.

Kangaroo babies are not ready for the world when they are born. Maybe humans should have a pouch too, to carry their young, instead of pushing a pram.

It’s since humans became fully upright - it reduces the pelvic gap, meaning babies have to be born smaller/at an earlier stage of development than other mammals…

Would you say that we should stop being fully upright?

CBAbies at the minute but would like to have a baby one day.

So many people have told me “there’s never a right time to have a baby, you just have to go for it and it all works itself out”, but the same people tell me I shouldn’t get a dog as it’s a big commitment :thinking:

Tbf, they’re right on both counts

#223

I know, it’s very annoying :triumph:

It’s probably because your relationships completely change once you’re a parent.

You’ll have a new set of friends if you’ve done NCT, who are all going through the same thing at the same time as you - they’ll be interested in seeing your baby. Your relationship with your family changes - other parents, and grandparents bloody love kids. And your friends who’ve had kids already, who you think have drifted away, but actually they’ve been working hard at their own lives and doing the best they can - suddenly they have a way to reconnect with you too.

But your old friends - those who think like you do at the moment - get more distant, because all you have to share is “mundane” stuff, but your new friends are your new life now, and they’ll be the ones who’ll be by your side if you need them for the next few years.

My instagram feed is littered with pics of Jimbo, and I’m not going to change that just for fear that someone thinks that it might not be very interesting. Going on the number of likes, he’s more interesting that craft beer or photos of indie bands.
