ok i just read in the health news section of full house that its now unsafe for pregnant women to cook!!!!

"mums to be should give up cooking because it could harm their unborn babies. its claimed chemicals in frying pans and other utensils could impair brain development before birth"

is it any wonder pregnant women are getting to scared to do simple things when pregnant i myself do not believe this to be true, but what do other ppl think?
im going to try and use this excuse on my hubby later, he already does so much for me dont reckon hes gonna fall for this!!!!

before i get abuse for scaring pregnant mums 2 be i am just amazed at what i read, its a uk magazine, soon we will have to stay in bed for 40weeks with a house keeper doing every thing ( how good would that be!!!! )

If it's true, then an exceedingly large proportion of the human race through the ages is brain damaged! Throw in all the old wives' tales from various cultures and a pregnant woman should just live in a sterile, opaque bubble for 40 weeks with Mozart playing in the background.

oy. there are alot of alarmist out there. sometimes some things affect some people. it's not like doing drugs and the like which will probably damage any baby to a point. these things may affect your baby: too much water, not enough water. chemicals in food, breathing..
remember. every minuts of every day, you are dying. everybody is. so just be a bit careful of the normal cautions and live your life.

How many people would stay pregnant for most of their child bearing years I wonder?

Women have been having babies for YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS!!! They never had pain killers, relievers, vitamins or anything! I don't believe half the stuff they tell you these days. Some of it is just ridiculous!!!

ohh dont take it all so seriously, you cant belive all you read. chill out and put your feet up!

i think most people who are mature enough to have a baby would be wise enough not to take to much notice.

Thank you, you just gave me yet another reason to avoid pregnancy. As time goes by there are more and more reasons to skip that particulare life event (in my view).

Do take care of yourself though...and I hope your child isn't negatively affected by your teflon cooking pans.
