A douche who tries to foist "family values" on the non-child wanting world. In other words, don't PG13 my NC17, man.

mom-to-be has tooth infection. dental work requires antibiotics and local anesthetic. according at least one study with a small test group, anesthetic, even local, can reduce your baby's iq 20 points. tooth infection can't go untreated until end of pregnancy because not only would it get terribly worse, but also the infection itself is supposed to be bad for the baby-in-utero.
any advice on how the hell to get around this? obviously the oral surgery cannot be done without anesthetic. can anyone show me something disproving that study?

i think of world of poo is appropriate.
as for the tooth, i can't disprove any studies from where i'm sitting but i can tell you that babies are remarkably resilient. courtney love's kid seemed to turn out all right.
you're in for a wild ride/.

Don't sweat shit like IQ points. I know people who do, but really, it doesn't matter for at least two reasons: anecdotally, I know parents who didn't particularly care about it, and still ended up with smart kids; then there's the fact that in terms of overall success in life, IQ matters less than do social skills. Have the surgery with drugs. It'll be fine.
You'll hear this from a lot of people, but sleep in as much as you can now. Do lots of nothing on weekends. It'll be your last chance for a while.
You'll read articles about the various and sundry contents of your go-bag for the hospital. Turns out (from our whoops-the-kid's-early experience), you don't need that much, but be sure to bring your camera.
Get in there and change some diapers. You'll earn goodwill, and they're not that scary. I now look upon non-diaper-changing fathers with haughty contempt.
And yeah, just love the kid. It'll do more for him/her than this or that particular yuppie fad baby food or whatnot.

I laughed. Well done...though world of pee is also appropriate.
Best of luck!

oh, i was already planning on changing diapers. i don't look forward to it, but jesus, dads who don't change diapers? what kind of treason is that? it's not like we have to go through labor or anything -- the least we can do is change diapers.
losthighway, were you an excitable boy?
did you make anyone into a cage of bones?
