<div> </div><div>I have a friend from Louisville that pronounces it Warsher. She's my best friend so naturally I tease her about it incessantly.</div>
Just to throw my two cents into the mix, I have a cousin who is just turned 28 a couple weeks ago and had her 3rd child in January. She asked to have her tubes tied after the baby was born and was told no by her doctor because of her age. It's crazy. On the other hand, I have an almost 21 year old cousin who is getting married in November and is not planning on using any type of BC. I think she's nuts. They're both working 2 part-time jobs and taking online classes when they can.
I went to college in Iowa, and ran into the extra R's all over the place. I suppose where I live no though, there is often a who different dialect as well. I was reading someone's FB post the other day and I actually had to try and translate it in my head.

<div>My SIL is currently pregnant with #3. She's 26. She wants her tubes tied but her dr said no. According to her, it wasn't her age but something about how when you have it done right after having a baby it often doesn't take? I've never heard that before, but whatever. For her sake, I hope they do something - she cried when she got the BFP with this one because she didn't want another one. Her H, on the other hand, seems to want them to be the next Duggars.</div>
