[QUOTE]In Response to Re: Night Thread : Any, we are eye-to-eye. <strong>Remember why I created the AE in the first place?</strong> Still not a ton of progress in that area, but it's getting better. It's actually getting easier with time, which is weird. It's like giving up smoking and then forgetting what it tastes like. Now I know how nuns do it. Or something.

Okay guys, the desire for Sea Salt Caramel gelato wins over laziness. I'll be back : )

I honestly don't know what I would do if FI and I had vastly different sex drives. I would hope I could get used to it, but I don't know. Does it bother you enough that you'd want to go to counseling or have him see a doctor to see if there's anything going on medically?

Ha. Yup. I created this to post the thread and then sent an email to TK to delete the AE. I accidentally sent it from my main email, though, so burntofferings got deleted instead of this name, which was linked to my work email. Heh. Oops.

Also, if it was a video that was protesting circumcision, they're not going to film it in a regular circumstance.

We took birthing classes at the hospital where I'll deliver and got to know the nurse pretty well. She seemed very trustworthy and experienced, and we talked about the actual circumcision. She said that first they numb the area with a topical-something, and then they  do something else to numb, and that the if/when the babies cry, it's usually because they're cold and because they're infants, not because they're being tortured. She said that it heals very quickly and that baby Tylenol works just find for any pain after.

You want to know where I've seen babies scream? When they're getting their ears pierced, but most people don't view that as cruelty, FTR.

ErinG93

I much prefer that kind of exercise to really working out!

And THAT was the problem. They didn't give the baby anything.

If our hospital didn't offer something to numb his pain, then I wouldn't get it done at the hospital.

Maybe you need to implement the 'clean sheet rule.' When it's time to change the sheets, it's time to have sex. Makes laundry day a helluva lot more fun.
