I keep seeing posts all over Facebook about how certain women's children are ALWAYS sick and they are just at their wits end. First off, I'd like to say that I am extremely thankful that our little sweetie is ALWAYS healthy. Then again, I have (had) the intelligence to do (and eat) healthy things while pregnant...and to continue to pass those things to my daughter so that not only will she know them, but she can also pass them along to her future family. Now, I totally understand that some things and more of a genetic nature and honestly, not much can be done to prevent those things. Only treat them as they arise. BUT there are things that way too many women do while pregnant that can not only affect their unborn child's development (mental and physical), but it will continue to affect them their WHOLE LIFE. For example (and I'm sure many of you are tired of my personal campaign against smoking (cigarettes and/or weed...but...I'm going to say it any damn way because this is MY blog) women who smoke like trains while pregnant. Your child is going to end up having a LOT of problems. Asthma, chronic lung infections, premature birth, extreme higher rate of birth defects, low birthweight, plecenta previa (you, while pregnant), higher risk of miscarriage (you, while pregnant), and you will end up with a child who just isn't healthy. Period. End of story. The moment you have a positive pregnancy test in hand you should realize it's no longer about YOU. It's about the life you created. And it's your responsibilty AND job as a parent to protect your child, even if that means protecting your child from yourself. It's simple. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand this stuff. Whatever you put into your mouth (or body) goes straight to your child while you are pregnant. STRAIGHT TO YOUR CHILD. What part of that do you not get? I wasn't the healthiest eater or most accomplished exerciser, but when I found out that I was pregnant I corrected those things FOR OUR BABY. It was no longer about ME, it was all about that little miracle we had created together.
It just amazes me at the people who do these things while pregnant and just expect that child to be absolutely untouched by their actions. Blows my mind at how retarded these mothers' line of thought can be. Often these same women will use their sick children to get others to feel sorry for them. Sympathy is pretty universal. And I feel sorry for them. The children I mean. I don't feel a bit sorry for the moms. Because...guess what? Maybe you should have thought about that either before getting pregnant and/or while you were pregnant. And maybe just maybe the next time you get pregnant (because I'm 100% positive that you will pop out another child, much to intelligent people's dismay), you will THINK before you act. Use that brain. I'm sure you can figure out what that is. It's the thing that moves around when you shake your head too hard. That thing that hopefully your children will not inherit from you. Here's hoping someone in your family is intelligent and that your child takes after THEM.
I also have to add that some of you may have gotten so lucky as to not have your child affected by anything you did while pregnant. If that is so, then I suggest you start thanking your LUCKY stars, because I've seen many poor babies who've been affected by this stuff, and it's not pretty. Hell, I know people and their kids who have issues all the time because of this. 'Growing' a child is one extremely delicate process, any small thing can throw a monkey wrench into the development of a child. What kind of person are you that you would take such a monumental risk? I'll tell you what kind: selfish.
