My mother-in-law asked me to not get pregnant until after our USA trip in November 2014. “We’re going to Universal Studios (in Florida),” she advised, “It would be a pity not to get on many of the rides just because you’re pregnant.” Needless to say, immediately after going on our last wild amusement ride, she said, “Now, you can […]

It is a pain to be pregnant and be sick. You are always extra careful on the type of medications you can consume. For example, for headaches, I cannot take Advil, and must go to the drugstore and buy Tylenol instead. For my dry cough, Dimetapp is a no-no. Robitussin is a safer option. For […]
